[video] rebel without a cause

[maddest]

What an exciting week!

In light of all the discussion, Adstringendum, let's chat- who would you trust to nominate as ombudsman?

I'm good with angels, though.

[thelightbringer]

Strangely, yes. You are.

[There. An enormous compliment.]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

[A quick grin.]

I'll get those cookies started.

[thelightbringer]

[Lucifer leans against the counter, monitoring it all.]

You've met all of us here now, haven't you.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

I think so. I don't mean to play favourites, but you have a special place in my heart.

[thelightbringer]

[A small smile; he looks outside, where the pig pen will go]

Even now?

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Hah!

[thelightbringer]

I'll take that as a 'no'.

[just to be a pill.]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

You haven't gotten any worse.

[thelightbringer]

[Now it's his turn to not-quite-laugh.]

I can't get any worse, didn't you know?

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Oh yes you could.

[thelightbringer]

Blasphemy. I am Sin Itself.

But you might be right. There are still a few things I haven't done personally, yet. We all have to have goals, hm?

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

You could make this place Hell reborn, torture us all down into whisps.

[thelightbringer]

[Lucifer nods thoughtfully, as if he hasn't considered this before. He has. In fact it's his Plan B.]

That's one idea.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

That would get boring. And I imagine it'd be frustrating, since you couldn't actually keep any of us here, hm?

[thelightbringer]

I don't care if they leave. Even at home, I eventually set the souls loose. What matters is how we pass the time.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

That's chilling!

[thelightbringer]

Close enough to 'wise'.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

From your perspective. I'm the bug on the dissection board in your little hypothetical.

[thelightbringer]

You've already been to a smaller version of Hell. Twice, right? I'd be beating a dead horse to stick you back in.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

[Break is startled into genuine laughter.]

Something like that.

[thelightbringer]

[Lucifer smirks at him, relaxed now, pig pen or not.]

And your goals for life here?

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Survive as comfortably and happily as I can.

[thelightbringer]

Oh, you're ambitious.

Topple an evil police force. Collect the complete set of angels.
