[He's just shy of holding up a hand to move it in mimicking someone talking (annoyingly).

He doesn't.] Exactly. And you? I don't need nor want to add you to the mix. I don't want to deal with your own problems, I'm sorry I asked anyway, and you must have friends. Go chatter with Wilhelm about your loss.

[politicians]

[ elrond raises his eyebrows. ]

Of course. You must have enough troubles handling your own.

[thedevilwhorose]

[look he knows you're probably joking buddy but the pure exasperation that comes over Lucifer is STRONG, and a little bit of his Attitude flakes away with the wheezed-tone] You have no idea.

[politicians]

[ elrond smiles, gently urging. ]

Oh?

[thedevilwhorose]

I may've put myself on some 'rocky ground' with the officials while you all were busy being kidnapped. [He says it like a stage whisper, like it's a secret, even though everyone that was in the castle during that time Absolutely Know.

Oh, he could handle it. He just won't.]

[politicians]

What did you do?

[ the playacting is a little charming. ]

[thedevilwhorose]

May've kinda-sorta tried to get at Ambrose for all the kidnappings and... you know. A lot of shouting about Thorne's incompetence. [He shrugs. Even he doesn't really remember much of what was said.] Evidently any form of aggression towards the High Mage gets you--at least briefly, depending on circumstances [Lucifer honestly believes they let him out within a day because they needed to use the Summoned as resources] gets you thrown in the dungeons.

[politicians]

[ basically, in summation: ]

So you lost your temper and that got you thrown in jail.

[thedevilwhorose]

[He crosses his arms.] Well someone had to be the one to do it. [Despite everything, he does actually genuinely look like he believes that. As it was maybe the only time the Summoned could 'get away with' (to an extent) not behaving like good, quiet little stooges.]

[politicians]

[ elrond hums. ]

Did it yield anything?

[thedevilwhorose]

A really annoying 'apology' letter from Ambrose driving home that no one was kidnapped from inside the castle. [And maybe if they just stayed in the walls they would've been Fine. So why do you stupid little idiots have to keep going out into town ect ect?

Or.

That was Lucifer's interpretation.]

[politicians]

[ elrond frowns. ]

They said that?

[ a blatant untruth, if any. why say that and not spin a tale? ]

[thedevilwhorose]

Among other things like admitting they could've done better and blah blah blah we're bringing in Hayle for assistance. Which given the discord between the Rhett siblings did mean something. [He gestures with a thumb in the direction of his room.] I've still got it if you don't believe me.
