The deflection gets the briefest smile of approval from Lucifer.

They all learn, little by little. Maybe Lucifer's paranoia is unwarranted. Maybe Thorne doesn't care, isn't always potentially listening in and prying. Maybe it's just Lucifer feeling caged and seeing the worst of a situation and he's bringing them all down with his dark-clouded thoughts.

Maybe it could all be fine and the rumors of experiments on the Summoned is untrue.

Will he risk it? Will he ever risk it?

No.

If what he's instilled in them ever saves their lives just once, even out of a hundred moments, it will be worth it. They're not immortal. And Lucifer's own life is... ehhhh... questionable what he can take.

"A shame, too. You could pull off a good hat, I think."

it's been a wild ride, and very satisfying, but maybe let's finish their gardening philosophy soon?

Kell shrugs, with a smile that supports their current spin on their conversation. Just in case. Nobody should feel too safe on the castle grounds. This is not a place to let his guard down. It never was.

"Historically speaking, I did. And not one. I had a few quite nice ones back home."

Kell stands up to stretch, rolls his shoulders and straightens his back. His whole body aches from being bent and contorted while crouching to pull out the weeds.

"Saints, I never suspected this whole gardening thing is such a tough job!"

yes that's fine! Kell can either leave him to his devices (misery) or fade to them just working?

"We'll get you some hats, eventually," he says reassuringly.

The thing is: he probably means it.

"Oh, don't be a quitter, get back to work." This is Lucifer's punishment which means he needs help, but he doesn't say that. "I need to get a bit more of this done before I can stop for the day."

If you help he'll be done faster!!

let's have it fade to them just working, he's a good kid

"Alright, alright! I wasn't trying to abandon you! I was just stretching my legs. This is back-breaking labour! I can't believe they don't have a spell for it!"

Both of the thing he says are bullshit. First, because Kell has not a clue how an actual back-breaking labour even looks like. Second, because he does know how caring for the plants does. You're either a priest perfectly balanced in your elements, or you do it manually. Life is delicate.

Neither stops him from complaining when given a chance. What were you expecting, Lucifer?
