[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?

[A quick wink.]

Pineapple upside down cake.

[thelightbringer]

Better bribery for you. Besides, pineapple doesn't grow where the Animus are.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Sex-in-a-pan.

[Proposing, instead.]

Sock it to me cookies. Whipped cream.

[thelightbringer]

[He has no idea what two of the three are, Break. So he gives him the trademarked angel head tilt.]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

They're delicious.

[thelightbringer]

'Delicious' is such a relative term.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

You'll like these.

[thelightbringer]

[He considers telling Break he has no use for food--but instead he nods agreement]

On the condition you feed Castiel, and keep me informed on everything he will be doing.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Yes sir.

[Saluting.]

[thelightbringer]

And all I have to do is duck?

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

You don't even have to do that. You just have to be on the lookout for provocation and deliberate attempts to make you look frightening.

[thelightbringer]

And point them out to you?

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Not necessarily. I'm only baking.

[thelightbringer]

And feeding my brother.

But fair enough. A deal, then.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

I could have coaxed you into it. You have pride.

[thelightbringer]

Most people think pride is a bad thing. It's not.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

It's healthy. To not want to be used.

[thelightbringer]

That depends on who you ask.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Tell me about what Castiel was saying- about Heaven? And the- dictatorial...

[thelightbringer]

[Lucifer's expression flickers, saddens, closes off. But he still answers as easily as if this was small talk.]

It changed after I left. I was the only one who saw God daily, so Michael and I were the ones who gave orders from Him. But for the most part, all angels existed in peace, doing what we liked.

After the war, no one wanted another Satan. So they began to 'reprogram' dissenters. My brothers, my sisters...none of them were allowed doubt, or fear, or love. Especially not love.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

You little pot-stirrer.

I'm sorry.

[thelightbringer]

[Another small nod]

It doesn't surprise me Castiel is worried about a government here.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Bad timing of the humanity, though.

[thelightbringer]

I don't think there was ever a good time for it to happen.
