He especially likes the Istredd-covered-in-blood part, Istredd.
Lookit that, Lucifer learning all sorts of things during this trip.
But he can feel Istredd's thoughts on that particular matter even without deep-diving.
Few people put up with Lucifer, and fewer put up with his interests. He'll treasure both of those exceptions and Istredd just happens to fit into both, so he'll give him an out in leading him... well, out.
"I don't particularly want to offer Thorne more than I already have," he admits, leading them on through the woods once he's sure Istredd can handle his new (dead) accompaniment. It's fueled by an... odd, displeased feeling. Lucifer has, already, recently unloaded most of what Istredd didn't know from while he was kidnapped.
Lucifer just... wants to Play the Game but not put in the effort, that much is clear. Even if it could ultimately be beneficial to him.
He's so tired of Thorne.
"They likely wouldn't pay me, anyway. I'd be helping the conglomerate!" A scoff. "If I wanted to add my real services to them it'd be as an interrogator." Something he'd equally want as a tried-and-true specimen, far more than his hunting prowess, but would ultimately, likely, backfire on all of them.
