"...That I'm six or seven steps behind where I was when I left."

Since he's being honest.
thelightbringer: (devil works 9 to 5)

"Everything is so urgent now. I keep missing things because all I can think about is what I'm going to do next."

He looks at Break, then back at the wall.

"And I can't tolerate people the way I'd learned to do. When I see them now, knowing they hate me, I know they'll help to Cage me. I used to be fine with that."
thelightbringer: (empathy)

He swallows hard.

"They would. They can't here--or maybe they can't yet. Rei can make fire for however long, who knows what else they'd work on if they thought it would work."
thelightbringer: (huh)

[personal profile] thelightbringer 2012-06-07 06:07 am (UTC)(link)
"They can't kill me. What else are they going to do with me?" Trying again to evade the real implications of what he'd said.

Except it's 'are', not 'would', again.
thelightbringer: (bite me 007)

[personal profile] thelightbringer 2012-06-07 06:13 am (UTC)(link)
"They would. They did."

Which makes it very hard to care if he goes too far or not.
thelightbringer: (are you stupid)

[personal profile] thelightbringer 2012-06-07 06:18 am (UTC)(link)
"At home."

He knows what argument could be made about that, so he goes on quickly, to get it all out as casually as possible.

"Nothing mattered. I wanted to quit. I wanted to call it all off, and leave with my brother. That's all. And it didn't matter. Not to Michael, not to them. Just like it doesn't matter here. Rei knows everything, Castiel knows-"

Castiel is a sore spot, so he stops while his tone is still under his control.
thelightbringer: (sigh)

The thought of being united with Michael had been what got Lucifer through Hell. And now Michael is burning with him, and there is no chance of them ever escaping.

There are no words to describe what that feels like. He can't even describe the situation.

"I can never go back there. ...And if they ever try anything like it here, that's it."
thelightbringer: ([n] thoughtful creeper stare)

[personal profile] thelightbringer 2012-06-07 06:39 am (UTC)(link)
He's never had a breaking point before. And he wonders if he'd have one now, if he had learned to hold onto something other than Michael's memory and the hope of vengeance.

Well, they took Michael. But he still has revenge. He knows how unstable that makes him.

"I don't believe in Fate. But if I turned away from what I'm doing, I wouldn't know who I was anymore."
thelightbringer: (what'd you think would happen?)

[personal profile] thelightbringer 2012-06-07 06:45 am (UTC)(link)
He's thought about this, too. It's not something he would normally discuss, but he knows Break will see it anyway. He'd rather get feedback, to see what opportunities it opens. Or closes.

"A few reasons. One is that they don't like me, and they're all willing to fight me. Maybe even eager for it. So like I said the other night--when they started talking to me like we're friends, it made them feel two-faced."
thelightbringer: (listening in)

[personal profile] thelightbringer 2012-06-07 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
It's working on Al. Lucifer hadn't been sure he'd be able to get that relationship moving where he wanted it again, not after the fight. But now that he's spoken to Al it seems to be doing better than it had been weeks ago.

"...Makes sense. But I doubt it's going to stick with Jyuushirou. I wouldn't hold my breath for it."

"I am. It will be better for all of us if it works."

He sighs and turns his head to look at Break.

"Tell me again why you want this?"

All of 'this', not just the manipulative or clumsy efforts at playing nice with the city.

He smiles in that oddly human way he has.

"As long as you always give me the best cup."
