The Devil's Nest, Tuesday Night

Lucifer had spent the past few days doing precious little beyond ~~mother-henning two absolute disasters~~ ~~running from Duke to Octavia and back like this was his parents all over again~~ dealing with Octavia's return, and frankly, he was both uncomfortable (after yesterday's visit to the aquarium) and tired (after just everything) and the idea of spending a whole evening just... playing music was extremely attractive.

Which was, of course, why his phone rang right as he sat down at the piano. He spared a glance at it, saw the Detective on the screen, and scrambled to grab it, adrenaline shooting through his body. He pressed it to his ear. "Yes?"

Silence.

Then she hung up.

It was not going to improve the mood of the music in here tonight.

There's always plenty of alcohol available.

Don't worry, he'll eventually move on to something... well, something.

He does need to drink sometimes.

Somewhere in the break of the piano medley, Jessica wandered over with a drink in her hand and leaned on the piano.

"Pretty."

It was a frank compliment and she wasn't going any farther than that.

And she also considered it a 'hello.'

"Thank you," Lucifer said, flashing her a grin that was only exhausted if you knew where to look. "Glad to see my favorite barfly back at it. How has your week been, miss Jones?"

"I was a pony."

There was a flat expression that went along with that statement. Clearly it was something she did not want to embellish on. "And I have a job now. I'm very close to calling myself a member of the community. How about you?"

"I was not a pony," Lucifer said, merrily. "And where are you gainfully employed now?"

He reached for his glass.

"Diaz & ASS," Jessica said with a faint note of amusement. "Keep in mind, I've always been an ass. Now I get to do it professionally."

She took a sip of her drink and gave Lucifer a small probing look.

"And you didn't answer my question."

"I told you I wasn't a pony," Lucifer pointed out, sipping his drink with amusement.

Jessica rolled her eyes in amusement. "Fine. Be the man of mystery then," she replied. "You know I tried throwing axes last night. Kind of fun."

"Outside of a drinking and dancing establishment, yes," Lucifer said.

The plants were back in the axe range.

"A bit inappropriate in here, in this era."

"Yeah, I'm not getting in between you and whoever runs the place," Jessica responded. "I just like the idea of therapeutic destruction being a few steps away from bottom shelf alcohol."

"Yes, it's a really grand way to wind up with a massive cleaning bill and quite possibly several holes in our walls," Lucifer said. "Eric thinks that because he's a bloody Viking he can get away with anything."

"True, collateral damage is a hobby of mine," Jessica said nodding in agreement. "And that shit is rarely covered in renter's insurance."

"Well, there are many places you can do collateral damage," Lucifer said. "Might I suggest Eric's apartment?"

"Well I haven't met the guy," Jessica said with a smirk. "I'd hate to tear his place apart without knowing if he's truly a jerk or not."

"Oh, he is," Lucifer said merrily, "Excellent in the sack as well, though, I'll give him that."

"A literal Viking in the sack," Jessica said tilting her head in amusement. "That's a little on the nose, isn't it?"

"The man has had about a thousand years to perfect his technique, and bless him, he's used it," Lucifer said, amused. "No need to make fun of it."

"Right. He's... what, a vampire, right?" she asked. "I doubt I'd want to make fun of him. Unless he wore the hat with horns on it."

"Haven't seen him wear it any of the times we went at it," Lucifer said, thoughtful.

"Well then all I got left is to make fun of him for Lutefisk and probably he doesn't eat that because... well. Vampire."

Lucifer snickered. "Now I wonder if he mixes that in with his fake blood."

Jessica made a face at that. "Hey, I can understand the blood drinking. But the mixing it up with Lutefisk is just disgusting."

"He's a Viking," Lucifer said, grinning. "They're all disgusting to some extent or another."

If Eric's there.
