The Park, Monday Afternoon

[my_own_advocate]

Was there something in the air? Lucifer could almost taste it on the tip of his tongue, but he couldn't put a name to it. It seemed to float in through his nose, in small enough quantities that it didn't affect his celestial biology - which meant he couldn't place it.

He'd just picked up a chocolate coffee drink at the Perk, but the oddness of it made him so curious he opted for a walk. Through the park, occasionally sniffing the air, occasionally sipping his drink.

"Strange," he said.

Loud sip.

"...Ugh, I'm out of coffee already?!"

Lucifer chuckled. If you're angling for a quick trip to some clubs on the mainland to find some friends...

[1000yearstoolate]

She hadn't thought about that possibility.

I wasn't but now that you mention it...

It would be less awkward next week.

[my_own_advocate]

You know I'm always happy to make sure you and I and whatever wonderful people we meet have a good time...

[1000yearstoolate]

It didn't strike Seivarden that bringing people to the island right now without a warning might not be quite fair.

You're good at it too. That's one of your many talents.

[my_own_advocate]

Who said they had to go back to the island right away?

You ARE complimentary today. Meet me at the Causeway in an hour?

[1000yearstoolate]

I'll meet you there.

There were things you could do in a car before leaving, wasn't there?

[my_own_advocate]

Though you could also stop by the mansion first, I suppose.

What? Lucifer was a ten-a-day man.

[1000yearstoolate]

Even better. Not that Seivarden thought they'd get much further than the hall.

I'll stop by the mansion./i>

[my_own_advocate]

Excellent, Lucifer texted, grinning. Looking forward to it.

Who needed sex pollen when you were Lucifer?

[1000yearstoolate]

I'll see you soon.

She actually added a sword emoji.
