Right. Lucifer considered himself again in the walk-in mirror. Was his bow-tie properly tied? The rest of the white tux was immaculate, but the tie...
Look, he'd managed to finally come out of hiding on the Rouge a few days ago. He'd spoken to miss Lopez, and discovered almost no time had passed. Which had come in handy for when Linda had come over to yell at him about how hard it was to find an elementary school for a child that was only a year old on paper. And then... time had gone on.
Amenadiel had yelled at him again, but he'd ignored that.
No, if they were going to be in Los Angeles, he was... going to try and take his mind off of the whole God mess. No one needed him self-actualizing anything else in a panic, right? So he'd arranged something special for tonight. A visit to the only magician's club in all the world...
"Now if only I could get this bloody bowtie right," he muttered, as he gave up, and finally stepped out of the walk-in, back into the apartment.

"Witnesses."
no subject
Date: 15 Jun 2025 23:18 (UTC)“We should stay here?” he said (asked). “And, you know, not get trampled in a panic?”
He would rather not be talking to the LAPD, even as a witness, but he wasn’t about to run off and leave the other two behind if they were staying.

Date: 16 Jun 2025 06:50 (UTC)Lucifer gave it a helpless shrug. "If the detective is coming, we shouldn't hinder her investigation by leaving," he agreed. (Answered?)
no subject
Date: 16 Jun 2025 08:30 (UTC)Lucifer's detective was almost the furthest thing from her mind.
no subject
Date: 17 Jun 2025 15:40 (UTC)Right. Well. It'd been a nice forced vacation while it lasted. . . .
no subject
Date: 20 Jun 2025 19:39 (UTC)There was a rattle.
And then a second one.
And then a pounding, and the impaled box on stage began to move. Lucifer started up out of his seat.

Date: 20 Jun 2025 20:38 (UTC)"Magnar?!"
--contorted between the swords, but still very much alive. "What the," he said, and then he looked down, and saw the body. "Oh."
no subject
Date: 20 Jun 2025 20:54 (UTC)"... Who's the body?"
As if either of them would know.

... and that was, of course, when the loud noise of police sirens began to blare outside.

Date: 25 Jun 2025 17:32 (UTC)"Here we go," she muttered.
no subject
Date: 25 Jun 2025 17:39 (UTC)He really hoped they weren't going into the lion's den, as it were. (And he kind of wished he had another cocktail to down.)
no subject
Date: 25 Jun 2025 18:09 (UTC)"OH MY GOD I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!"
-- Ella Lopez, a blinding smile on her face, bursting inside and making a beeline for the three of them without any hesitation. "For months I've been dragging myself to Lucifer-less crime scenes, and now, boom! You're a witness! Oh, this is so amazing!"
Beat.
"I mean, horrible for the dead guy, but not horrible for me!"

Date: 25 Jun 2025 19:57 (UTC)"Hi Duke!" Ella exclaimed, giving him an excited little wave. "And..." She groped around for a little extra bubbly to counter that dryness. "...Octavia! Gosh, this must be weird for you guys, right?"
no subject
Date: 25 Jun 2025 21:14 (UTC)She leaned so hard into her natural deadpan that it was impossible to tell whether she meant it or not.

Date: 26 Jun 2025 19:11 (UTC)While she spoke, Lucifer's eyes tracked up. And aside. And...
"Lucifer," said another, very familiar voice, coming from a very familiar blonde woman. Beside Chloe stood a tall, extremely nondescript police officer, whose eyes darted between the three seated parties. But Chloe's eyes were on one person, and one person only. "What are you-- what are you doing here? I thought..."
no subject
Date: 26 Jun 2025 19:12 (UTC)Oh.
It took Lucifer exactly three seconds too long to answer. "Ah, a, uh, godhood-related incident carried us here," he managed. "My fault. I'm afraid."
no subject
Date: 26 Jun 2025 21:35 (UTC)She didn't really think Chloe was paying her any attention.
no subject
Date: 26 Jun 2025 22:38 (UTC)He watched her and Lucifer, eyes flicking between them. He knew how Lucifer felt (he did, dammit), but how Chloe did. . . . That was something else.
