MONKEY BOTTOMS


Ella doesn't like people who mock others, especially the dead ones. Yet, her job is difficult enough not to try to laugh a bit, from time to time. From a tiny detail.

The today's victim doesn't help her staying focused on her task, but she has managed to hide her grin behind her camera most of the time, especially since Lucifer has joined them at the crime scene. His grin is wilder than anyone else's, than Ella's, as he walks around the body. He laughs softly the moment he stops before the dead bald man, his skull as red as… something laughable that Ella does her best not to think about for an hour now.

Lucifer is still laughing. "Monkey bottoms."

On the verge of laughing too behind the car, Ella hears then another voice - annoyed, only whispered for the Devil's ears, it seems. "Lucifer, now is really not the time to talk about our sex life!"

Ooookaaaay.

Does she really wanna know?

Maybe, given that she keeps her ears wide open for the Devil's answer.
