[ Probably after the sitch with Theo is resolved - late at night? Early in the morning? Who knows. Time is pretty meaningless to Lucifer. #relatable. ]

I think introductions are in order. My name is Lucifer Morningstar, and I'm a new warden here. For those that recognize my name, yes, I'm probably who you think I am, no, it's not a mistake, and no, I'm not here to kill, maim, torture or eat anyone's soul.

I don't think a soul would have much nutritional value.

Anyway, I'm glad to be here, and I'm used to getting lots of questions, so ask away.

What would the over-under be on getting a piano in here do you suppose? Just curious. It's been ages since I've been able to play, and the minibar makes me nostalgic.

[ ooc: if you had a TDM thread with Lucifer, let me know if you'd like it to be game canon or not! I'm fine either way. ♥ ]

Do you want to do this? Alright.

Straw-man fallacy, and a loaded question. I can't answer any of what you said without validating the premise, which isn't valid. Earlier, I specifically accused you of not caring about the question you asked, not not caring in general. Just now, I didn't say you cared too much, I implied you were being too single-minded, and that it was off-putting.

I didn't decide we were done last time, you did. I like to do things that I'm good at.

[ There was a time when Lucifer would’ve absolutely taken any opportunity to get a dig at someone like Volk. Arguers and pedants - traditionally some of his favorite people to make fun of. The more words they use, the more chances for him to twist those words into an insult, or just a stupid pun that would make bystanders laugh and no longer take any of the arguments seriously.

He still might do that from time to time, but he’s got more thoughtfulness now. He took on a responsibility to the inmates here, and he’s absorbed a lot of insights from all those years of therapy.

So he’s in therapist mode, making a mental note in the mental file he’s started for Volk: likes to argue - need to exercise control?

His face remains remarkably impassive through all this. ]

I appreciate the response.

[ That’s it. Volk is going to have to find someone else to fulfill that desire. In essence: not today Satan. ]

We're all frogs to dissect to you, right? We're all projects to pick up, so fixing us can be an extension of your ego.

No one wants your help. Not one person has responded positively to your approach, because you haven't made any attempt to actually listen to fucking anybody. I literally told you want I want out of a warden and you got fucking chickenshit. You're just trying to tell everybody who you are, wait for them to be impressed, and then trick them into letting you help. Because you're so much smarter than we are.

Every time I land a punch you fucking run. Is a weirdo in guyliner too tough for mister demon armies? Did I hurt your 𝒹𝒶𝓇𝓀 𝒻𝑒𝑒𝓁𝒾𝓃𝑔𝓈?
