The Cape Rouge, Saturday Afternoon

[my_own_advocate]

It had been a glorious week free of drama (bar what Eric predictably brought to the table), and they were capping it off with an even more glorious weekend of nudity, scarves, a light pirate 'abduction', and, well. .

A nap here and there, at least if you were Lucifer; he hadn't exactly been keeping track of where anyone else had been while he was out. Had to keep his strength up.

Which was why he was in the kitchen late into the afternoon, still naked. "First batch of grilled cheese is almost ready!" he called, flipping one sandwich with a practiced motion. Hey, if you were impervious to boiling butter, you made the most of it, no?

[[ for those on the boat. ]]

Octavia had been off the boat for a bit there, earlier. Her quest for normalcy demanded it, as nice as this little vacation-without-travel was.

She'd been back for at least a few moments, though. And yes, the theme of the weekend had been firmly established as nudity, but on Lucifer's part that meant he wasn't using his silk robe... Yeah, she'd changed out of her street clothes into something a little more comfortable.

As Lucifer was about to find out as she swanned into the galley, now. "What, not even an apron?"

[my_own_advocate]

"I thought about it," Lucifer said, "But unlike you, I'd like to maintain the spirit as well as the letter of the weekend."

He was smirking, though, so he clearly wasn't annoyed about it.

[okteiviakom]

He better not be, that robe on her was a look.

... Not that Octavia was entirely aware. She was just making good on stealing more of his clothes. "Well, have fun getting hot butter on yourself."

Just 'cause it didn't hurt him didn't make it sound less annoying, if you asked her.

[my_own_advocate]

Lucifer glanced over his shoulder. "Oh, I'll have fun," he said, smirking lazily at her. "Though not because of that."

[okteiviakom]

"Uh huh," Octavia rasped, but at least skipped the eye roll. Instead, she was moving closer, to peer at the culinary delights he was preparing.

Yes, grilled cheese counted.

[my_own_advocate]

Lucifer huffed in amusement. "Hungry?"

[okteiviakom]

"Not really," Octavia admitted, absently touching the small of his back with one hand. The sleeves were a little long on her, and the edge of the fabric swished against his skin, too. "They had that thing up at the school."

[my_own_advocate]

It was a very nice robe. Lucifer had picked it out especially because of how it felt. He grinned at her.

"Ah, poaching food from the newbies," he teased.

[okteiviakom]

"I wouldn't touch it if they didn't lay out enough of it to feed the whole town," Octavia replied.

Lightly.

[betterthanaplan]

Duke let out a low whistle. "New rule: you get to wear clothes in here but only if it's that."

[okteiviakom]

Octavia snorted, but her lips curved a little, whether she wanted them to or not.

"So I take it you approve."

[betterthanaplan]

"How could I not?" Duke said. "You look like a decadent present, waiting to be unwrapped."

[okteiviakom]

Was the noise Octavia made a little laugh? Maybe.

She was wandering towards where he was sprawled, either way. "Is that so?"

[betterthanaplan]

Duke reached his good hand out to play with the robe's belt. "Oh, absolutely. Was that not what you were going for?"

[okteiviakom]

Octavia glanced down at his hand with a soft huff.

"Maybe I just felt weird about just stripping down as soon as I got back."

... Well, she'd done it, she'd just then pulled on the robe.

[betterthanaplan]

"You know, a solution to that would be to stay here," Duke said lightly, twining his fingers into the belt. "It's working great for me and Luce. But I know how you get restless, sometimes."

[okteiviakom]

"Just had to take a walk, jaka," Octavia told him, watching his hand. She could have taken a seat next to him, but then she would probably have missed out on this, so... On her feet she stayed, for now.

"We were cooped up in the penthouse so long," she added. "I can't keep doing that."

[betterthanaplan]

Duke sprawled himself out where he could watch the naked cooking show, appreciating the fact that one of them could easily cook naked without worrying about spot burns. He propped his casted arm against the bulkhead behind him and sipped a soda.

"Man, I could watch this all day."

[my_own_advocate]

"If all you're going to do is watch, I'm doing something wrong," Lucifer said merrily, reaching for a plate.

[betterthanaplan]

"Hey, sometimes a guy likes to just sit back and watch for a little while. I can get, uh, more active again later."

[my_own_advocate]

"I suppose we did tire you out," Lucifer smirked.

But they'd napped!

[betterthanaplan]

"Not all of us have a celestial constitution," Duke agreed. "Besides." He stuck out his lower lip in an exaggerated pout. "I'm injured."

[my_own_advocate]

"Oh, now you're attempting to sway us into waiting on you hand and foot?" Lucifer said. "A bit late to try that one."

He would absolutely do it if Duke tried even remotely to make it believable.

[betterthanaplan]

"Of course not," Duke said. "I didn't injure my foot. Waiting on me hand will do just fine."

[my_own_advocate]

"Very clever," Lucifer said, walking over to him with a plate and a sandwich.
