Lucifer hadn't been back here since... everything.

And he wasn't really quite back here, yet. He just... wandered inside, past Tiny, and went behind the bar, and poured himself a drink. Drank it. Poured another one. Drank it. Poured a third.

Then he got behind the piano, and began to play. Dark, dramatic things. Perhaps a touch of Billie Eilish.

The Devil's Nest was open, though.

"All of our mixers have been replaced with what," Lucifer said slowly.

"Apple cider vinegar," Lucifer said loudly.

"Right, give me my phone back, I'm making a call to Gwyneth--" Lucifer yelled.

Argument concluded, Tiny walked up to the specials board and wrote down, sighing, No Cocktails Today - Beer Wine and Spirits 10 percent off.

"We should put a bed in the club."

Someone had gone on a bit of a bender last night. Purely to see how close to drunk he could get. But while Lucifer couldn't get a hangover, he could, in fact, stay up too late.

And so now he was sprawled in a booth, staring up at the ceiling.

Tiny shook his head and just kept sweeping the floor.

"A knight-themed party," Lucifer said dubiously. "Who on Earth would want to go back to the Middle Ages? Well, okay, fair, everyone was up for a few good rolls in the hay in a remarkable amount of positions, but also the rolls were, in fact, in hay, and-- are you ignoring me?"

Tiny looked down at his notepad and jotted down some notes.

"Honestly," Lucifer told him. "Just for that, I'm playing Top 40 tonight."

He stormed towards the stage.

Tiny shrugged, then padded up to the statue to light a little candle. He mumbled some words, though Lucifer couldn't hear them.

"Right," Lucifer said slowly. "Cult night? Not really what I'd call a crowd pleaser. I'll be over here with the cocktails."

He wrote that down on the specials' board while he was at it.

Lucifer, Octavia and Duke had come home from the Bahamas that morning. Lucifer himself had put off going to the club, hoping that whatever shenanigans had happened in his absence would disperse by the time he arrived in the evening.

But alas. It was not to be.

"Right," he sighed, eyeing the ice bar. "I suppose it's too much to ask that we at least get a sponsorship from a beer brand or something for this?"

Tiny shrugged.

"Well, might as well make it a theme," he said. "Right. I'm going to call someone about installing a designer ice luge."

"Does the island realize it's November?" Lucifer inquired.

He stood at the door, sipping a hot toddy, staring out into the massive, unrelenting burst of... Christmas... that seemed to have landed on their actual floor. Plush red carpeting. White fringes along the bar. Fairy lights everywhere. Delicate little snowflake pendants hanging from the rafters.

And pillows everywhere, still, of course, just now perfectly in theme.

Lucifer sighed, and took another sip. "Well, I'm not playing any Christmas classics for the next two weeks," he muttered, "But I suppose I can rustle up some songbook classics for the piano..."

Lucifer had gotten used to all the pillows. He had gotten so used to it that upon entry, he took three steps, turned around, and let himself collapse on the impressive collection of them that had assembled on the floor.

"Tiny, help me think," he said, staring up at the ceiling. "What beverages, besides red wine, would go with the 'lay about and drink' vibe? I feel very strongly we should be able to profit from this."

Tiny made a thoughtful noise, and started writing some ideas on the specials board.

Turns out the coziness had spread to The Perk as well. There were still a few tables, but most of the furniture had been replaced? transformed? into cozy, comfortable options. Bean bag chairs, low couches and loveseats, floor pillows, even an overstuffed recliner were spread over the space. (The recliner wasn't her armchair playing tricks, she'd checked.) There were also blankets, fuzzy oversized hoodies, and cuddly sweaters for people to wrap themselves up in. Stacks of books and magazines were randomly placed, as well as a few cooperative board games, knitting and crocheting supplies.

He paused a few steps in. Looked over his shoulder. Looked at Tiny again.

Duke wasn't openly suffering anymore. In fact, he seemed like he was in an altogether good mood most of the time.

That was a great smokescreen for Lucifer to privately nurse his own complicated, hurt feelings about the whole thing. Frankly, there was only one thing better: an actual smoke screen.

Which was to say he'd purchased some fog machines in a wild impulse. The Devil's Nest was currently very atmospherically foggy, with clouds drifting around the stage while Lucifer plowed his way through some of The Cure's more recent material on the piano.

Lucifer was doing fine. Just fine. That date night had completely worked everything out of his system. Everything.

"I hate these curtains," he growled to the small cadre of interior designers following him around the club. "This shade of red is far too burgundy for my tastes. Can we have something less burgundy? But still burgundy?"

... at least he was keeping himself occupied?

Tiny just watched and sighed.

The Cotton Eyed-Joe situation could not continue. So early that Friday, Lucifer had put in a call to some contractors to just-- redo the entirety of the Nest's audio infrastructure.

He assumed it would take an hour, perhaps a touch more.

And yet, as he opened the Nest, they were still at it. Who knew they had that many audio cables laying around in this era of Bluetooth? And where? And why did it involve putting holes in the floor?

"I'm beginning to wonder if you are actually craftsmen, or just a set of gremlins in overalls," he muttered, as he settled at the bar.

"What on Earth--"

That was Lucifer, staring at the smoking remainder of the sound system - and the irritating earworm that wouldn't leave the bloody club. "This is your fault, surely."

Tiny looked apoplectic at the very thought.

"Right," Lucifer growled, shooting him an irritated look. "I'll just fix this myself, shall I?"

He stomped off to the piano. Soon, the bloody earworm was drowned out by the pleasant flow of piano-based versions of Rolling Stones songs. Perhaps if he drowned it out long enough, it would go away?

The Devil's Nest was open, and the Devil was playing.

"Protesting... what?"

Another pause.

"Noise pollution? It's a club in central Baltimore!"

Some days, being an owner of multiple clubs was a joy. Some days, it left Lucifer pacing up and down the Nest, ignoring Tiny as he barked his annoyance into a phone.

The club was open.

Someone wanted to rent the Baltimore club for an evening in a week or two. Lucifer had happily agreed.

Until he'd found out how much of a partyzilla this person was.

"I'm sorry, he wants how many crystal chandeliers?" he complained, wandering around the Devil's Nest with his phone glued to his ear. "Covered in what? Absolutely not! That's a health code violation if I've ever heard one, and not a fun o-- neon ombre? On my walls?"

It was a negotiation in motion.

They might not have been billionairs, but a succesful popstar and a world leader could drum up quite an impressive budget together. The community center itself was transformed, to such an extent you wouldn't recognize it when you entered.

Unlike the white wedding, the colors were pleasantly dark, soft blacks and dark blues dominating the floor, the ceiling, the walls. The lighting implied the ambiance of a sort of upper class rave, with pops of color penetrating the darkness, and tasteful flowering plants lining the walls.

There was a dusting of glitter, a gentle mix of red and white, that blew across the floors and reflected the light at strange angles. The food served at the tables in the far corner - tastefully separated from the rest of the room with dividers that mimicked some of Van Gogh's darker flower paintings - was the work of the Hegemony's own kitchen; fancy finger foods fit for world leaders.

There was a dance floor. There was an expensive DJ, flown in from Milan. Envy's wasn't the only music being played, but it was in heavy rotation.

Come Friday evening, there was practically a festival area in the park. On one side stood a line of various food trucks, serving moddable food and beverages, courtesy of Envy and Peter's wedding budget. On the other, there was a merch booth for anything and everything Envy you might want - at least in terms of apparel or physical records. There was also a little cordoned off media area to one side of the stage, holding members of the music press from around the multiverse, ready to live-tweet the show back into their worlds.

And then, of course, there was the stage, looming over everything, just a little bigger than what a show in a small town park strictly speaking needed. The back of the stage was already lit up with giant block letters of made up of a gazillion light bulbs, spelling out ENVY. Just in case anyone forgot who tonight was really all about. (Or needed a reminder about who to Google.)

The paint rain across the island was still going, so hope everyone was either cool with continuing to be dyed various colors, or had brought an umbrella or perhaps a big newspaper to shield themselves with. Either way, the hope was everyone enjoyed themselves.

Tiny did not dignify that with an answer. He was far too busy building his 1/20th size replica of the Cape Rouge on the bar counter.

Duke was feeling pretty okay, today. Sure, the pressure was already starting to build to let another trouble out, but it was still at that lingering, vague nausea stage where he could mostly ignore it and go about his day.

Not that most people were willing to let him do that.

"Have you seen the new wearable for people with chronic fatigue?" Ali asked him. "Maybe you need something like that!"

". . . I don't have chronic fatigue. I have a magical curse."

"Have you tried a FODMAP diet?" Greg asked. "My sister did that and it worked wonders for her food sensitivies."

"I don't have food sensitivities," Duke pointed out, exasperated. "I have a magical curse."

"Ooo, have you tried yoga?" Benny asked.

"Yeah, you're fired," said Duke.

As Fandom was wont to do, it had grabbed Octavia and her partners at an unfortunate time. Nothing catastrophic, but awkward enough for Octavia in particular that she'd spent much of Saturday flinging messages and emails and calls around, because while long-standing experience said the island would return her where it'd found her come Monday morning, she really did need to be in Copenhagen and in her own time tomorrow. And if Fandom was going to fuck up those plans, she needed her people to be prepared with a plan B.

But most of that was settled, by now.

(Most.)

So Octavia had actually made it into town today, to grab a muffin and a coffee from the Perk, and then a seat by the window to people-watch.

... And look at her phone, too, sure. Although at least one of those times she did was so that she could send the guys a picture of the place. A little nostalgia hit, if you will.

... At least this time, it was mainly just annoying.

Lucifer had decided to be proactive about it. He'd gotten a printer, and a laminator, and he was currently making Tiny print and laminate a series of colourful signs with words on them. Like 'Want' and 'Food' and 'Wine' and 'Jeans'.

Well, the ballroom was once again done up for a grand get-together with a distinctly winter and holidays theme: trees and greenery and candles and (non-sentient) ribbons on things. Because Tony didn't know how to not go overboard, there was one massively oversized tree and a brand new chandelier over the dance floor to continue with a wintry feel.

The trees were covering the normal rotation of wall art that kids sent to the Avengers, but the smaller trees around the ballroom had handmade ornaments sent from around the world and contained at least two depictions of Thor flying Santa around using his hammer. Because it was the holidays! Everyone wanted Thor to fly them around for the holidays, right?

There was holiday music in a variety of languages playing over the entirely too complicated sound system when the gremlin choir that Steve, at least, didn't remember inviting wasn't singing on the stage. The food was catered and abundant (though missing jelly doughnuts. After yesterday, Tony and Steve had declared themselves doughnuted out, however temporarily), your hosts were suitably attired, and there wasn't a bathtub filled with hooch to be found anywhere.

"Might as well lean into it, right?" Greg said.

"Lean into what? And that's a terrible accent, what's it even supposed to be?"

"Ve are Franch! today!" Timmy crowed, flinging himself onto the donut. A cloud of powdered sugar took off into the air. "Ve vill seet around and drink coffees and talk pheelosopheee!"

Duke made several attempts to respond to that. But even without choking on the airborne sugar, he had nothing. All his many questions and exclamations just got backed up in his throat.

Octavia had been very adamant yesterday that Lucifer was not allowed to burn down the Devil's Nest, no matter how it may have looked like right now.

But she had to admit it was very different right now, when she walked in for whatever her shift was going to be like, and was faced with an onslaught of orange, sports on screen, and a lot more staff than she was used to (and in much skimpier clothing than she was used to - on Tiny, at least).

And that was before she saw the banner hanging over the bar, just as bright and garish as everything else:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, OCTAVIA!!!


Octavia stared up at it.

"... I think that was two weeks ago."

The bar didn't care. Some of the waitresses had just spotted her, and now there some excited squealing with the gist of 'eeee the birthday girl is here!!' And no, they weren't going to care about such minor details as said birthday having been two weeks ago or no one having actually asked for this party, either.

"I... I'm speechless."

The Devil's Nest sign had fallen. In its place: neon orange. Hooters.

Twin impulses warred within Lucifer: the impulse to yell, scream, set fire to the building, and the impulse to... go look inside and see about the staff's... style. Dazed, he wound up somewhere in the middle, shoving open the door with a bizarre mishmash of expressions on his face.

"Tiny," he said, sounding strangled, "Are you wearing booty shorts."

He was.

As were several seemingly-interchangeable new waiters and waitresses (and, he thought, squinting, at least one waiterex.)

"I don't," he said.

"Would you like some wings?" a waitress chirped. Past her, some kind of baseball game was playing. Lucifer didn't have the foggiest. Why would anyone on Earth watch baseball?

The 'light it on fire' impulse was winning.

It took Duke an embarrassingly long time to realize why the town seemed so quiet today. In his defense, it'd been a long time since he'd last taught a class and thus paid attention to things like the school vacations.

He wasn't complaining. The quiet suited him right now. It helped him keep what was so far a good day for him going. Which was why he was currently sprawled back on his hands on the sand to watch the waves rather than standing pensively.

He didn't even mind that the bottle at his side was full of birch beer and not something alcoholic. Progress!
