He was silent for a moment. Then Lucifer spoke again. She did a good job of evacuation. But Charlie was right. “You will need someone to train you. Because you’re right. As your father I am naturally worried. But you don’t need protection when it comes to this. You need to be able to hold your own in combat.”
Lucifer took a breath. Then resumed the magic. “Alastor and I could teach you. Or perhaps just one of us. But… I’ll have to be… Hard on you to toughen you up. I can’t hold back too much for the training. Do you understand? I’d have to… quite possible hurt you. Alastor might do a better job but… Really the choice is up to you. Perhaps Vaggie or, if you can manage it? Carmilla as other teacher choices.”
Lucifer was tossing out other possible people if Charlie would rather it not be her dad to do the training. Plus not everyone taught the same way.
This Doesn't Look Godly Mayhem in Heaven Roleplay.
''What the--''
Harper turned around from her spot by Basil and next to Charlie as suddenly a loud crash could be heard. She left Basils side, watching with wide eyes as a portal to Hell was torn open.
''Um...''
Cyan fire enveloped the courtroom, a flash of pure white lightning cracked through the beautiful blue sky.
''What in the--''
(HEY Y'ALL, MAGIC ANON TURNED MICHAEL INTO A MANIAC YAYY. NOT YAY.)

The seraphim, covered in wounds and his own blood… Collapses. Lucifer used a lot of healing magic recently and barely rested. His body wounded and exhausted.
“It’s… Over.”
He muttered. His eyes closing as sleep took hold.

Lucifer went to the hotel for yet another visit. It had been a while and he just wanted to check on things. He knocked on the door. Waiting for whoever was going to answer the door, to open it. Giving a big smile when it was. After all, he had made the arrangement before showing up.
So no one would be blindsided. Well that and... He was partially hoping to know how well things went at the meeting. But of course Lucifer wouldn't make that the first thing he brought attention to.
Patience...
"Hello there! It's been a while, hm? I hope things are well."

"I uh... Yeah! Of course I am. Hehe." He tried giving a smile. Totally not nervous or anything. Except that Lucifer absolutely was. He wasn't able to go to Heaven after all. Having no idea what happened. Not yet. "I just... You're an angel. In... Hell. At the... Hotel." It was hard to believe any angel would just get... Lost. Here of all places. Unless... Oh dear. Lucifer really hoped this wasn't a fallen angel case. That would hit too close to home for him.
"Are you lost? I can contact Heaven for you."
Which was definitely good for his nerves. Not.

"Oh! So you both met them! Wonderful!" He smiled. Refilling his cup and sipping at it. "Have you been to Lu Lu World? If not... Perhaps I could give you and your friend there tickets. As a reward for being such a good doctor. You know. Give you and him a nice little vacay. I know doctors work hard. That goes double since you're in Hell. So I'd say... This is a must. But of course. I'll leave it up to you to accept."
He stared at her for a moment. "Really? No Heaven or Hell?" A peaceful world full of magic... That made Lucifer want to see it. This place sounded like it's own paradise.
"Heh. You're not wrong. A lot of the people here would probably find it a waste of time." Which was a similar mindset for Charlie's hotel. "I'm sure my daughter would like it though. Sounds like her... Cup of tea. As it were."
A pause.
"No. I suppose you wouldn't know much of Heaven." Lucifer touched the rim of the cup with a finger. "I... Don't think you would like them. Well not... Most of them anyway." It would be hypocritical to say that all angels were bad.

Lucifer grinned. Feeling a stroke to his pride.
"Why thank you. It's nice to meet a demoness with manners."

Huh. Alastor actually went along with it. "Hm. Well... I haven't touched this game in a while. But I do recall that someone needs to be the banker. Keep the money in order as you buy properties. And that free space thing? The... What is it again?" Lucifer took a look at the board. "Right. Free Parking. I have seen people put money there during the game. Sometimes. Maybe it's a race type of thing. See who gets there first to collect it."
A pause.
"Oh right. There are hotels and houses. I... Am not certain what we do with those. Maybe we put them into the Free Parking too?"
Tumblr media
The Radio Demon stared down intensely at the short King, his eyes narrowed, his smile strained. It was a long, intense silence where the static in the air could nearly be felt.
He had something to give Lucifer and while he very much did not want to, he had told Charlie, at her insistence, that he would 'make an effort'. And so here he was, making an effort.
That did not mean he wasn't going to be snarky about it though.
Tumblr media
"Rubber ducks are lame," Alastor finally said.

The growling did not sway him. Lucifer was concerned at this change in behavior. The shift in the air. But he did not let go. His grip tightening a bit.
"Michael. Brother... I am not letting go. I promised to be by your side. And I am no liar. If you need to... Let your emotions out. Then do so. You are my family. I am here... For you."
He could take the attacks. Be they verbal or otherwise. Whatever was going on? Lucifer would be there. He knew how it felt after all. Years of pent up frustrations. Despair. All of the emotions. If Michael needed to vent? Someone to be his lightning rod or anchor?
So be it...

Dionysos, god whose arrival is swift and certain, enduring friend of women and men whose welcome is warm, bringer of light, we see you in shadows. Dionysos, granter of great blessings, your presence is a heady wine. Kind-hearted god, to each you give as is fitting, each vessel you fill only as we can bear, and yet with even a sip, we are drunk upon you, and our faith is affirmed. Awesome god, by our own will we drink deeply, with you we become lost, we wander, we are found.
Litany to Dionysos
Dionysos of the vine, rich-tressed god of wine, potent and lusty, unmixed, undiluted, with full force you come to us, vital and robust, rich and strong and surprisingly sweet. Dionysos, I praise and honor you, I thank you for your blessings. Ivy-bearing Dionysos, god of the green, of the power of root on stone, the force of life that will make its own way in spite of all who labor to hold it back, no will or work can bind your might. I praise and honor you, I thank you for your blessings. Dionysos of the deep earth, of the dark world, of the unknown expanse beneath the black soil, beneath solid stone, of mysteries you know much, of death and of what lies beyond. God of secrets, I praise and honor you, I thank you for your blessings. Dionysos the inspiring, granter of words of prose or poesy, words heard best by the drunken and the mad, words forgotten with the passing of night and delight. Bacchus, granter of rare transport, I praise and honor you, I thank you for your blessings. Dionysos Soter, holder of the hearts of men, you free us from the cares of the world, each brilliant frenzied moment a shining jewel, each glimpse of the sacred more precious than gold. I praise and honor you, I thank you for your blessings. Kindly Dionysos, granter of good to men and women, giver of gifts to all who seek your blessing. Gracious Dionysos, accepter of offerings great and small, friend of mankind, I praise and honor you, I thank you for your blessings.
Regular Prayer to Dionysos
Dionysos, deep-hearted one who knows the souls of men and women, whose hand is ever open, ever within reach. Dionysos, god who runs in the dark, who sees with eyes shut tight, who dances to the heart’s strong beat, ever are you yourself, ever constant, ever changing god of those who are trapped, those who seek your truth and their own, those who seek vision beyond seeing, those who seek wisdom beyond knowledge, those who seek the self, pure and sweet, those who seek clarity beyond definition, who seek to embrace the uncertain, to hold, but loosely, to what is true beyond trust.
Regular prayer to Dionysos
I praise Dionysos, lord of the vine, lord of the far reaches of the mind; in the thick of the woods, along darkened paths, in the shadows of dusk and of dawn, you roam the world, the satyrs and the pretty nymphs dancing in your wake. Son of Zeus and fair-haired Semele, bold-hearted Semele, who dared to look into the face of glory, beautiful Semele who you carried into life again, Semele reborn who men called Thyone; beloved of clever Ariadne, quick-witted one, so dear to your heart, your bright-eyed bride and consort; Dionysos, friend of women, friend of the blissful, wild-eyed maenads, pilgrims and pioneers, those who seek, your cheer and inspiration, those who seek your release, from sorrow and despair, those who are lost in joy, and those who have found themselves in you. Dionysos, god of the darkest dark and the deepest deep, boundless one, endless one, fathomless one, in you we see the edges of ourselves, in you, we find our life’s journey, in you we find our home.
To Dionysos
I call to Dionysos, great god of the vine, son of thundering Zeus and headstrong Semele, loving husband of warm-hearted Ariadne. From the east you came, old before the ancients, throughout the elder world were you beloved; in Naxos and Boitia were you celebrated, in temples and in the savage wilderness, the fleet-footed maenads running in your wake. The sweetest, strongest wine is ever your drink; the mind’s release, the body’s loosening, your gift. O Dionysos; thyrsus-shaker, ivy-crowned god, we see you in the shadows, we see you on the edges, we see you in the haze of ecstasy, where we know the truth of passion, where we find the essence of our being. Bacchus, I call to you!

“Alastor vanished but…” Lucifer smirked. “Yes. We won. I pounded the fuck out of Adam. The bitch had it coming.” He only held back because of Charlie. “Nifty dealt the finishing blow though.” He laughed. Carrying Pentious inside and laying him on the couch.
His goat demons doing medical treatment for the brave warrior.
“I’ll make sure all of Hell knows to respect you. Sir Pentious. You deserve that much.”
He was slithering slowly. He coughs up blood, body badly burned by the angelic blast. How did he survive? Who can say? it was a miracle. Seems even THOSE can happen in Hell. He collapses. He was weak....trying to get back to the Hotel. Would he make it? He had to try. His strength was fading FAST.
