Oh, I already annoy the others pretty often, it's nothing I can't handle.

[ With great self-awareness comes the knowledge that not everyone is going to like you. ]

But I'm also not very good at being comforting. Mostly I'm just here to make sure you don't wallow too much. It's pointless. Take it from someone who's wasted a lot of time pointlessly wallowing.

[shiftedshape]

[Loki extends the glass out, raising an eyebrow.]

So is the idea to get all the wallowing done at once by getting drunk? I've tried that in the past. It tends to go about as poorly as anything else.

[dealwiththe]

The idea is to drink and distract you. What's the funniest prank you've pulled?

[ Let's start there. ]

[shiftedshape]

[A man after his own heart. Or ego.

Loki leans back in his chair, hums thoughtfully.]

The time I turned Thor into a frog was a good one. I put him in a jar. With holes, mind you, but he didn't appreciate that kindness.

[dealwiththe]

[ That definitely gets a good chuckle out of Lucifer. ]

I love that you can just do magic. Amazing. I would've turned several of my siblings into frogs at various points if I could've.

[shiftedshape]

That's an oversimplification, I think. And can't you do some magic? You can fly, right?

[dealwiththe]

My flying isn't magic. Birds have wings, and most of them can fly too. Nobody calls that magic.

[shiftedshape]

And when you just don't have wings? What's that called?

[dealwiththe]

I always have my wings. They're just put away. The only time I didn't have my wings, was when I cut them off.

sorry i've been so slow on thissss

[shiftedshape]

Put away? As in under your shirt?

[Maybe it's the drink, but the rest of that hits him on a delay.]

You cut your own wings off?

just as slow as meeeeeee lol

[dealwiththe]

No, just... away. Pocket dimension? Subspace? Whatever.

[ Lucifer shrugs. It's not really a thing that has a name or an explanation, it just is. ]

And yes - well, technically my right-hand demon cut them off for me, originally, when I decided to move to Earth and quit the whole 'Lord of Hell' thing.

[shiftedshape]

[Mumble:] Sounds like magic to me.

[Loki's eyebrows raise at that explanation.]

Was that...necessary?

[dealwiththe]

Depends on what you mean by necessary. At the time, I thought it was necessary, to send a message to my Dad and my siblings. And, I suppose - I needed to cut off the reminder of what I was. Or wasn't, anymore.
