Lucifer's evening

(A little bit belated, but I was SO not summarising this last night)

Lucifer enters, thinking about the snatch of Billy's nightmare that he felt. Anthy considerately does not set him on fire.

For purposes of continuity, he is first approached by Thom, who hasn't seen him before. Lucifer is interested by his power, and Thom, despite effort, spectacularly fails to be unimpressed by Lucifer's. They exchange names and Thom realises that he recognises Lucifer from Sario's painting. They talk about the value of power and the nature of truth, and Lucifer gets Thom's life story. Lucifer asks what Thom is looking for, and the discussion turns to power again - Thom even decides to try asking Lucifer for some of his. He is politely refused.

Next is Hob, who is in a good mood after Teh Billy Action. Not for long. Hahaha. Lucifer recognises him as being the person who was there when Billy woke up, and they both get fairly possessive. Lucifer is his normal charming self, and Hob swings between being angry and angsty. This goes on for a while before Lucifer delivers a pointed ultimatum. Hob airs the rest of his residual guilt and asks Lucifer if Billy really wanted to sleep with him. Lucifer is almost reassuring in his reply, but says that Hob now owes him a truth. He then proceeds to be irritatingly cryptic, because at this stage Lucifer-mun is about to fall asleep and drool on her laptop. Hob gets understandably pissed off at being teased and starts to leave, but Lucifer offers him another comforting truth. Hob is so relieved he then puts his foot in it. Twice. Lucifer gets pissy and tells him that because he tried to take everything, he is going to leave him with nothing. Hob is forced to admit that he wants Lucifer and then kiss him, while Billy watches. Lucifer is an utter bastard at him, and then leaves.

This update in the War For Billy has been brought to you by the letters H, A and H.

Lucifer should feel special, or something. Thom hasn't told anyone else the truth. Or at least not that much truth.

I read the Lucifer-Hob bit with my hand pressed to my mouth, chanting "Eeee, so evil! So evil!" in an undertone. *whimper*

Just so's you know.

Not at all! ...Well, okay, yes, completely.

Hob hates you with the seething fiery torrents of a thousand bubbling cauldrons, by the way.

I read that whole bit with Lucifer with my mouth open, you know.

So. Damn. Evil...

Let me just say:

Gah.

And:

ANGST!

I'm not even involved in this mess, and yet, I'm going to be on Paxil for *years* because of the spill over angst of this.

::grabs Billy and snuggles him tight, because OMG teh ANGST!!!::
