I gave my word, Lucy. Would have kept it even if you were a powerless demon like the rest of us.

The good news is that she's aware of what she is, wants it gone and is aware it could be used against you. She's more concerned about you acting like a fool, getting yourself hurt due to her. You found yourself a decent human.

How do you want to proceed from here? I don't want to pull something out of her that might be her just because she wants it gone so you don't get hurt.

[His lips quirked at that, John always having such a wonderful tone to add to any conversation. He could see why something like that might have irked his replacement.

His fingers tap along his leg as he ponders that, then gives him a shrug.]

Leave it be. As it is, it's not harming her. It's seemingly a part of her. Seems rather idiotic to risk harming her to remove it when you've no idea what 'it' is, just because I might get a papercut. No, it can stay where it is. The worst has already happened, anyway.

[John nods, leaning back in his splintering chair with his feet propped up on the display case.]

All right. That's something between you two, not my place to meddle. That said, be careful because if you get your soul ripped out, she's going to make me come along to rescue you. Bet she won't even get me any good cigarettes or drink for the whole effort.

She might have a twitch for magic. You want a full stop on that too?

That's up to her. I don't know if I could see her trying to dabble in the arcane. She's too... grounded. If it pleases her to learn and you're up for the challenge, it's no concern of mine.

Fair enough. Going to give her a drink to steady her and then send her home then. Any bad effects, let me know. Shouldn't be, but you never know.

She's there now?

[Well. Hell.]

Ask her if she'd like me to meet her there to bring her home. Just in case.

That she is. I wouldn't send her home to you without knowing your opinion on things. She knows that same as you do.

Will do so. If it's a 'no', I'll tell when she's leaving although I'm going to ask you don't make too much noise on the roof when you arrive anyway. Stalking isn't attractive, Lucifer.

You're very cheeky for someone that knows exactly what I'm capable of, Magician. Reminds me of Maze.

I just don't wear the leather as well or have a desire to stab humans for existing. I'm probably much more fun in bed too since I've got bits I'm guessing she doesn't.

You're always free to find out yourself. I think she'd be curious about you. Wondering if there's anything to the hype.

She and I already visited, Lucy. Had a nice chat. Didn't kill anyone. A good playdate all told.

This is me, utterly not surprised.

[Even if she hadn't told him she'd done so, he couldn't see her not checking John out at some point.]

Was it an interesting playdate? Or one that I don't want to hear anything about?

You think she'd let me exist here if she thought I was a danger? I'm sure I'd end up Lost again.

We complained about dead humans wearing Halloween costumes of angels and demons. The importance of not giving feathers or blood to magicians who can do bad things with them. Then we went back to how stupid humans were. How much she misses Hell. How much I didn't. Things like that.

What, no sex? I'm not sure which of you I'm more disappointed in.

We couldn't decide who was going to be on top and who got to hold the knife. Things like that can kill a relationship.

I'm quite certain you're both switches-- though, to be fair, Maze generally likes to hold the knife with everyone but me. Still, shame, shame, John. You missed out. It's well worth trying at least once in your life. Or afterlife.

You know how I like to have sharp things in mine when they could get near my tender bits. She didn't seem too willing, Lucy, and I like that in a woman. Or a demon.

Asking Chloe now. She isn't going to be happy you want to leave this bond between you alone. I think she's honestly afraid of you getting hurt.

Frankly, I'm more interested in why you insist on referring to it as a bond and not some celestial area of effect that just happens to be directed at me. There's no ties between her and I. Well, none that are mystical in nature. She's not linked to my soul, or any such nonsense, John.

I call it that because I don't know what it is. It isn't an area of effect because it affects only you. Were it all angels, demons or even ones on par with your abilities, I could go with area.

Oh shut up. You do so have ties between you. How deeply I don't know.

Come on over. She wants you here. You can take her home and talk about it.

For the record, I think you're a bit of a prat.

[Bond. Pff. There was no bond. ~~DENIAL~~]

I'll be there in a shake.

A bit? I must not be trying hard enough. Most think I'm a complete arse.

[Not just a river in Egypt anymore.]

Door is open, and I haven't even gotten her properly drunk yet.

[Ah, there it was. That flicker of red again as he smiled at John.]

Watch yourself, Connie.

[Then the feed ended and Lucifer left his place to wind up over at Constantine's, taking the more direct route via flying.]
