If only Istredd could've applied his book-maze sense to when he was stuck in an actual labyrinth.
He salutes the owner on the way out. Her face may be in a book, but he believes she saw him, anyway.
Back into the strong smell of fish.
While in an ideal world he'd say yes, only give me knowledge, only rely on me, that's... not really where his head's at. Doesn't need it to be at. Doesn't need Istredd to run an idea by him and maybe that's out of some security for himself because Lucifer won't run everything by Istredd, for whatever reasons he might make up for a given situation.
Or Kyle. Or Natasha. Or Thancred. Lenore, if she was still here. Look at that, the list of people Lucifer actually respects the opinion of. That's grown substantially, and that... mostly all happened while Istredd was in the dark.
