He nearly cackles at Istredd's grumpiness. He's only looking out for you, Istredd. You want to deal with redheaded-wrath? Be his guest, but Lucifer will make the effort in trying to prevent that.
Lucifer may be on uneven footing here, but he's gotten past the placeholder issues, and the identity issues, and various other uncertainties clogging up his thoughts along with the static he had at the beginning of the month.
Fortunately (or unfortunately) then, he will always be himself.
"So demanding," he quips, the amusement game strong in him, and the beginning trills of pleasure from Istredd's comment. He hardly needs romance. His amusement does come back to bite him some though because there are several clasps to his outfit, and the gloves and their buckles have to come off as well for him to even consider removing his top, followed by the thin undershirt that kept the top from chafing.
And this wasn't excessive for the clothing options he could have taken!
He still achieves better speed than Istredd, and he enjoys the man playing catchup.
"Look at that," he says with a laugh, which frankly shouldn't be funny for the words that follow, "we're both graceless now." (He's got some grace, but not the point.)
He snaps off Istredd's tie from his neck, loops it behind Istredd's, and absolutely soaks in Istredd's furnace. And a rebellion. Don't forget the rebellion part. That is very important to me. That this, too, really is a rebellion. Because this they certainly weren't allowed.
