Los Angeles, Tuesday

[my_own_advocate]

It was a nice, bright morning in Los Angeles, just a few days before Lucifer's self-imposed ultimatum about leaving ended. He remained on a quest to apologize for his therapist-inflicted overthinking and subsequent attempts to break up with Duke and Octavia, and so, today...

...Today it was time to spoil Octavia with a visit to the Aquarium of the Pacific.

He hummed brightly to himself as he paid for their tickets, then slid past the nice cashier and into the aquarium properly.

As was only right and fair. Duke rested his hands on her shins, gently rubbing up and down them.

"Where to dump his dear old dad, hopefully."

"I'm going to get Him a girlfriend," Lucifer announced, "He's been single for millions of years, clearly He needs someone to get settled with."

Octavia'shead turned, and her brow furrowed.

"... What?"

She sounded like she was judging that idea. Sorry.

"You going to set . . . God . . . up on a date?"

"It'd be perfect!" Lucifer argued. "He can annoy someone else for the rest of His life, happily ever after on a porch in Florida somewhere."

"And where do you think you're going to find the right woman for that?"

Re: The Loft, Afternoon

[betterthanaplan]

"I hate to harp on the whole 'God' thing, but -- I mean, is he even going to be into a human woman?"

"I'm an angel," Lucifer pointed out, "And yet I'm obviously into humans."

He took another thoughtful sip of his drink. "I should get Him an account on Tinder..."

"Yeah, but." Duke shook his head, slightly surprised that he had to say this. (And then surprised at himself for being surprised.) "You're extraordinary."

"Also no one just decided one day that you needed to find someone," Octavia pointed out.

Re: The Loft, Afternoon

[my_own_advocate]

... Well.

What was Lucifer supposed to do with that, Duke.

He cleared his throat. "No, but it'll be good for him," he continued, as if Duke hadn't said anything. "I did just give Him a phone, I just need to teach Him how to swipe. I'm sure He'll find someone given enough guidance."

Duke let out a little sigh and flicked Octavia a "what can we do?" glance.

"If you say so."

Octavia met Duke's gaze, and gave him a little shrug. As far as wild ideas went, at least this one didn't sound like it was going to get anyone injured?

"Yeah," she agreed, but mildly.
