Who: Lucifer, others When:December January shhhh Where: Thorne, the Horizon What: Closed for the moment; will open more later Warnings: Wrathful teenagers, discussions of violence... Not in the same thread.
Hard enough to make sense of any of this as-is, but Lucifer's additions only itch at a distrustful part of Sam that demands no more intrusions. He only needs one voice in his head, so to speak, and just the idea that something as sinister (or more so) than his current list of concerns makes him that much more relieved to know his own brain-space is intermingled with those he trusts most. If something (or someone) comes looking there for Sam (up to and including Lucifer), resistance is bound to be met.
"It sounds like you're telling ghost stories," Sam says with a huff. It's meant to be a joke, but the gravity generated between Lucifer finding it worth mentioning and Sam's disinterest in being an experiment (brain laid open to whatever else AGAIN) means that he can't help a small expression of his own concern over those shared details.
He watches Lucifer for a moment, then walks past him at a leisurely pace, sort of expecting he'll come along side (or otherwise get the picture that Sam is on his way out one way or another).
"Oh, believe me, I wish I was," he says. He's had the misfortune of being a pawn to the Singularity's web from the moment he crawled out of a fountain in Thorne. For as much as he wishes he could just ignore it, live and let live, he's rapidly learned that he needed to go about things differently.
For God's sake he's been learning magic. Him! The devil himself! True, actual Abraxan magic, like a chump!
This is where his need for survival has gotten him and he despises everything about it!
He is not revealing that tidbit to Sam, of course. He'll be open with Sam about some parts of himself, things that people have already figured out, things he isn't really revealing but Sam might grab a hold of and find himself once more in Lucifer's sights before he realizes.
He does not follow Sam.
Sam can think of it whatever he will. Like it's some new game of Lucifer's.
Honestly, Lucifer just doesn't want to show up with another surprise at Wanda's front door. It's the only kindness he can grant her. If Sam reads deceit, so be it. Not everything is about him. Ha.
He does whistle out to the only raven remaining on Lucifer's previous perch. Staccato, Lucifer's accidentally-named bird. The raven doesn't move, but fluffs its wings to show it's acknowledged the sudden attention. Lucifer calls out: "Get him to where he wants to go."
The bird waits, considers this, and then swoops down by Sam and then back up to a further tree along the precarious, unknown path.
"I'd get going if I were you," Lucifer tells Sam. "They do eventually grow impatient." He doesn't tell Sam that once the birds start getting impatient they will actively "help" more than idle guides. Can't give his vessel all the answers; where's the fun in that?
