Funny enough, in return Michael can't think of a better place for Lucifer than his Cage either. There is no such thing as getting him to stop, so what else is one to do with someone who finds satisfaction only in making everyone around him suffer? That's something the people of Abraxas—or at least the faction housing Lucifer—will have to figure out.

"The one from the alternate universe," Michael says, face contorting. He'd had a glimpse of the other him from the memories Castiel had shoved his way, and he's insulted that that's the one that first came to mind. At least Lucifer is in agreement that his alternate is lesser than he. "Dead by my time, though clearly that won't stop him from showing up here any more than it stopped you."

He's still not certain if the Singularity itself can resurrect dead archangels. Michael remembers dying, but he doesn't know if he was pulled from the moment just before his death or sometime after. If they can be summoned from any point in time, it doesn't really matter. Any number of people neither of them wants to see again could show up the next time the factions decide to perform their summoning ceremonies.

Including far bigger threats than his doppelganger.

"There are worse things that might follow us here."
