I thought it would be fun for Ella to meet Charlie so here it is.

Charlie walked into the Police station, "Excuse me miss? I'm looking for my dad." The receptionist was nice, "Ok is he missing?" "Oh no, he works here?" "Name?" "Lucifer" "Oh he works with detective Decker, head on back." "Thank you."

Charlie made her way into the precinct. it didn't look very busy. A man was at Decker's desk, he didn't look like her dad's type but he'd been different for a while, "Hello Detective Decker, I'm looking for Lucifer."

The detective looked up closing the folder he was holding, looking slightly guilty. "Uh what? No, I'm not Decker, I'm Officer Espinosa, I uh- What do you need with Lucifer?" Charlie looked on slightly confused, "I want to talk to him."

"Is it a medical problem?" Charlie stared at him, "What?"

The Espinosa tried to speak carefully, "He has a certain lifestyle that involves a lot of women-" Charlie grabbed Decker's trash can and puked into it. "Jeez are you okay?" Charlie shoved him away, "You are- you-" Espinosa stood back, "What did I do?"

Charlie breathed for a moment, "I am not screwing my dad!" the officer stared. "You're Lucifer's daughter?" Charlie nodded wiping her mouth, "So before you go insinuating anything else, tell me where he is?"

"Chloe and Lucifer are working a case, "I can't divulge information on an open investigation, but I can give you his number or address." "My data plan doesn't work in this area." Dan handed her a water bottle. She took a sip to wash down the bitter bile.

"Uh well I can… I can call them," Dan pulled out his phone and dialing. "You probably don't want to hang around a nightclub all day waiting for him." "I do not."

Dan put the phone on speaker, "Hello detective," "Hey Lucifer" "Ah hold that thought detective," after a moment of silence, gunfire erupted "Daniel, we're taking heavy Fire! Chloe's hit Send HELP!" Then a beep and her father's laughter, "Elaborate voicemail prank. Leave it douche."

Detective Espinosa hung up the phone, "Hang on, let me call Chloe" He fumbled with his phone, "Hey Chloe, is Lucifer with you?" "Yeah, we're on our way back to the station why?"

Daniel turned to Charlie, "Can we prank your dad?" "Uh, sure."

"Because there's a seventeen-year-old blonde here that just puked into your trashcan."

"Of course, there is." "What did I do?" "Ok, thanks Dan, we'll see you back at the station."

Then the line went dead.

Dan turned to Charlie, "Ok they'll be here in a little bit. You should probably wait, over by-" Dan paused seeing Ella in the forensics room. "-Ella, she's a good friend of Chloe's."

Dan walked her in the lab. "Hey, Ella! This is Lucifer's daughter, Charlie. Can she hang out with you until Lucifer gets here?"

"Yeah, no problem, wait, back up, Lucifer has a kid? How old are you?" Charlie wove greeting, "Hello! Yes, and I'm an adult."

Dan gave the girls a thumbs up and left the room. Ella waived him out before turning to inspect the enigma in front of her, "You're not British." Charlie smiled and responded in a perfect British accent, "I'm British when I want to be." Ella's face lit up with joy, "Cool, you're a method actor like your dad."

Charlie looked back blankly, "Uh no, I'm a trained vocalist, music is a shared hobby of my dad and I."

Ella nodded. Dan came in with a pudding cup. Sitting in one of the open chairs, "Lucifer and Chloe should be here soon. Then we can prank them and see how Chloe reacts to finding out he has a kid."

Ella grinned at the statement, "Nice." Charlie looked more confused but shook it off., "Ok so you guys seem to want to know more about my dad, well the feeling is mutual. I haven't seen him in years, so I'm not answering any questions unless you guys answer my questions."

Ella practically jumped up and down at the idea "Oh my god yes! This will be so fun." Her excitement was a bit infectious.

"My dad has been working here a while, what are your relationships with him?" Ella looked over and Dan, "Do you wanna-" Dan shook his head, "If I talk, I'm gonna hurt her feelings."

Charlie tried not to laugh, "I'm not made of glass. I know that not everybody likes him. How bad can it be?"

"He's dating my ex-wife."

"Oh" Ella covered her mouth like she was trying not to laugh at an offensive joke or just holding a remark. Dan continued once that comment settled, "He's a dick that steals my pudding and uses me as the butt of all his jokes and harasses me whenever he's even slightly bored. Going so far as to ruin every hobby and romance I have." Dan sighed and took another bite of his pudding.

Ella chuckled for a second, "Wow you make him sound way worse than he is. He's like a big brother to me, He's just mean to Dan because him and Chloe used to be a thing."

Ella clasped her hands together, "Oh I know, how long has Lucifer been weird?"

Charlie was very confused now, "What do you mean?" Ella gestured around, "You know, insisting his dad is God, referring to himself as the king of hell…" she continued gesturing as if asking if she needed to go on.

Charlie thought for a moment, "He's not weird, he's used his sense of self to cope with certain issues relating to his dad. It never affected his performance as a parent."

Dan snorted, "Wait he actually raised you?"

"Yes, with my mother Lilith, they were married WAY before I was born, they got divorced a few years ago, right before he moved here to L.A. "

"What's your mom like?" Charlie didn't answer the question, "My question first, what's my dad's relation with Detective Decker?" Ella paused, "They're co-workers that started dating a few months ago."

"Okay, to answer your question, my mother, Lilith is more serious than my dad, tall, blonde, matter of fact. They both had a work lives back then."

Charlie thought for a moment, "So why is my dad working with a detective?" Ella looked to Dan, so Charlie followed suit. Dan looked between them for a second, "I honestly have no idea."

"Oh"

Dan shrugged sheepishly, "I'm sorry, as far as I can tell the only reason Lucifer does anything is for his own entertainment. For a few months he was all excited about the possibility of being shot. Then he was working here because he wanted to sleep with Chloe. After that, I'm not sure, honestly I would rather kill myself than understand Lucifer."

Charlie said nothing, Ella was vocal, "Woah that a little dark buddy." She hugged Dan, "Don't worry we can make all that sad go away."

Dan smiled at his friend's reaction hugging back, "Ella! Lucifer and Chloe just walked in here."

Ella let go of him put on an angry face and stormed out, "Lucifer you piece of shit!" Charlie watched Ella go and Dan followed her out.

Chloe watched Ella approach, punching Lucifer in the arm several times.

"Lucifer," Dan held up a pair of handcuffs. Chloe's eyes sparked with rage, "No! You're not putting him in handcuffs" Dan sighed, "Chloe, it's just a prank." He put the handcuffs away, watching Chloe process. Lucifer started chuckling, "Well played Daniel"

Chloe wasn't laughing, "So who puked in my trash can?"

"Oh, that was Charlie" Lucifer stopped smiling. Charlie joined the group "Hi dad." Chloe turned to Lucifer, "Is this your daughter?" "Lucifer nodded, she's my only, Lilith and I were married for a long time, all of Charlie's life, until I moved to L.A." Chloe blinked

"Lilith? Like that Lilith?" Lucifer nodded.

Ella turned to Lucifer, "How am I only hearing about this Lilith person now?" Lucifer sighed, "The divorce was an exhaustive ordeal, that I'd rather not dredge up, so we are not talking about it."

Ella nodded, "Uh huh, yeah, totally fair, I'll just ask her when you aren't around."

Lucifer turned to Charlie, "So, are you staying long?" Charlie shrugged, "You said I could visit whenever I wanted." "I had hoped for a bit of warning."

Sorry for the abrupt ending, wasn't sure what to do with it, meant to post this two days ago, sorry.
