Complicated
Chloe had left Lux still unaware if exactly how complicated Lucifer's family really was. He smiled slightly, wishing for a moment that his family really did fit the human idea of complicated but there was no way he could explain it to her. He smirked as he imagined the conversation.
"Oh my dad? Well, He has this really big opinion of Himself. You know? Created all mankind."
He shook his head as he imagined the look on her face. "Oh and by the way. He sent me to preside over Hell and when he and mom divorced, Mum who by the way is the Goddess and them getting it on created the Big Bang, was sent to Hell too. She's responsible for all the plagues and stuff you read about in bible class." He shook his head. "And by the way she is currently inhabiting the body of an innocent lawyer who died. And when I said Jay I meant Jesus as in Christ is my half brother. Now stick that in your pipe and smoke it if you think your family is more complicated than mine."
"You not planning on telling the Detective all that?"
He spun round to see his brother watching him.
"What do you think? Chloe would never believe me." He smiled. "Amenadiel. Would you put a good word in with Father?"
The older angel pulled a face. "Regarding What?"
"Me."
"Go to Hell."
"Been there, done that." Lucifer frowned. "I am not asking to be taken back to Silver City with open arms. I just want Him to get Mother to leave me alone."
"You ain't never gonna be human."
"Oh listen to daddy's little helper. I'm not asking to be human. I don't wish to be." He paused. "Humans as a race, not Dad's best plan. They're like monkeys, just with no fur and more anxiety."
"Then what do you want?"
Lucifer sat at the bar, seemingly deep in thought. "Lucifer?"
"Peace and quiet. Let me live as I am now. I'm actually helping. Doing some good." He sighed. "Look, if you won't talk to him I'm sorry but I'm going to ask Jay. I know he's the baby and the favourite."
"Lucifer."
"I mean doesn't that gnarl at you? The only son of God? I mean what are we?" He stared at the bottom of his glass.
"Don't let a misprint in an ancient book annoy you so much. We all know it should have read only son with Mary. Let it go." Amenadiel sat opposite him in the seat vacated by Chloe. "Leave Jesus out of it."
"Oh come on."
"I mean it."
"Well, you talk to Him. Tell Daddy dearest I am not going back there. This is my home now. This is my place, with Maze, the police. With Chloe."
"Chloe Decker? You like her." Amenadiel laughed. Lucifer glared.
"Just tell Him."
"You didn't deny it bro!"
"Just. Go." Lucifer walked away as his older brother watched.
