Lucifer lives just a couple of doors down from him, as if the faction weren't plenty small enough to lead to a run-in eventually. It was inevitable โ it's just, Satan hadn't actually crossed his mind until the moment Jack set eyes on him. His thoughts have been in a pleasantly chaotic fog, devoted almost entirely to the woman he's got his fingers threaded with as they hold hands through the hallways.
Only for him to stop them both short suddenly the moment Lucifer emerges from his room to go... wherever it is the devil hangs out. Puppy cemeteries? Orphanages? Whatever the case, Kill Bill sirens start alarming in Jack's brain, his hand squeezes Sabine's tightly through one lightning-bolt intense flash of protective instinct, and then he just sort of... short circuits as Hyper-Defense Mode kicks in.
"Hey, hold on just a second, okay?" His mouth says to Sabine chipperly, entirely disconnected from his brain so that he sounds like a too-cheerful mascot from a car insurance commercial for... some reason.
That is very much not what it sounds like when he rounds on Lucifer and points with his free four-fingered hand.
"You. We need to talk. Now."
He disentangles himself from his girlfriend so he can quickly, purposefully stride across the hall and clear the distance between the two of them.
"Look at me, because I'm not fucking around right now. You know all that fucking-around you're used to from me? It's not here. It's gone. The next two minutes are the most fucking-around free you've ever had in your entire life. You see her?" He shifts just enough to glance over his shoulder and point at Sabine, only long enough for Lucifer to get a glance โ and then pointedly moves back to cut off line of sight of her again. "If you try and pull the shit you did on me with her, if you screw with her, if you so much as smell bad within, like, ten feet of her? I will ruin your life. I have a lot of free time. Please know that I'm being the most serious I have ever been when I say... I will devote all of it to ruining everything you enjoy. I will find a way to burn it all to the ground. Do you understand?"
