Had a dream that Lucifer and Chloe's little @$$%$ing daughter didn't make him leave them and now I want to get back into the fandom.

Damn my brain.

Just a reminder, Lucifer started doing police work because of Chloe.

Chloe couldn't marry Pierce, because of Lucifer.

Lucifer and Chloe have been so happy because they're finally together.

It’s interesting to me how smiley Chloe is in the mask party episode, when she’d gotten Lucifer a full carnival-style face. Her mask looked painted on almost, you could still tell it was very much her, but maybe the act on shielding your emotions from the world behind something made it easier for her to let her guard down. 

She had said that Lucifer made her vulnerable. That it was okay she felt that way about him and she was alright with staying open, keeping her guard down. Although, the times that he’s ‘hurt’ her or ‘let her down’, she seems to have a wall up, so maybe after the mistakes Lucifer made and the things he did to push her away in protecting her she let go of the vulnerability and only lets it in on special occasions. 

After she laid all her cards on the table, and begged Lucifer to stay, her walls were just demolished. He had to leave to again protect her and maybe now since she’s not in a good place in the bts spoilers stuff she’s struggling to rebuild the walls. The love she feels for Lucifer is undoubtedly much more powerful than the love she felt for Dan or Marcus/Cain. 

Dear Dad, I shudder to think how she’ll react if Lucifer does in fact run away from her when they cross paths again.

Lucifer: I'm just happy you got what you needed

Chloe: Yeah, I did. But there is something else I need too.

Lucifer: What would that be, detective?

Chloe: You.

They’re not just sitting down together, they’re laying down together.

THEIR SHOULDERS ARE TOUCHING.

My god this has become my life

The Devil in the Details

I was watching a version of Jane Eyre on youtube from 1973; it's in episodes, and the conversation after Rochester proposed to Jane stood out to me like, 'this is morningdecker worthy'. So I wanted to do something with the convo, ended up with this. Hope you like it :)

-------

That night was a blur as well as slower than Amenadiel could've made it. Chloe told him later that how they entered his loft was exactly like a dream she'd had of him; hurrying to rip each other's clothes off, him dropping her on his piano and carrying her to the couch, burying his face in her chest.

The only thing that was different was no horns. She'd seen his devil face already, and in order to make sure she truly wanted this, with him, he showed it to her again as he cradled her in his arms. His grip loosened when he saw Chloe's reaction to his face, but watched her, in slow motion again, as she pressed her mouth to his. It hurt, for sure. He had only been given scratches and spit from others in hatred and contempt, but never a kiss. Not on his real face. Not in love.

The next morning, they were both just waking up to the sun coming to greet them. Chloe turned so she faced Lucifer and he grinned, seeing her naked body face him. She grinned too, and he kissed her in gratitude that she didn't roll her eyes at him and scoff at his personality. Then he leaned his forehead against her.

"Oh my God, you are absolutely beautiful Chloe." Lucifer said. The mixture of emotions that went across her face showed him how much those words actually meant to her.

"Did-did you actually say 'god?'"

"Well, father deserves the credit for making you, doesn't he?" Lucifer replied, Chloe laughing into his mouth as she kissed him again. "I'm still speechless on the subject of how you came about on earth love, but I never imagined he wanted you to be with me willingly." Chloe still didn't exactly understand what he was saying, he still hadn't told her everything yet. But knowing that he was telling the truth, she just put her arms around his waist and stared at him with a carefree smile.

"Do you mind if I ask you a question, detective?" Lucifer asked.

"On one condition."

"Shoot"

"Detective only for work. You call me by my name, or you call me love, outside of it." Chloe replied.

"Oh?" He said with a grin.

"I like how you say it." Chloe said, laughing as Lucifer kissed her again and rolled on top of her. He rolled off of her onto the other side and nearly fell off the bed, when Chloe pushed at him.

"What was your question gonna be?" She asked.

"What?" He asked in a daze, his mouth hanging open. Chloe nodded at him to remember. "Oh, yes. Um, why did you insist on making me believe you were in love with the chief?" He could see it again, she was laughing with the chief outside of his office, and they did a poor job of trying to hide to minute touches, and Marcus pulling at a loose strand of her hair then tucking it behind her ear. Lucifer had certainly felt jealousy when he'd seen her with Daniel. But with Chief Marcus? It was simply unbearable. Leave the room to down a bottle of jack, unbearable. It felt like dad was raising him out of hell itself with forgiveness and a shiny new pony when Chloe confessed she was only in love with him, Lucifer bloody Morningstar. It took some convincing to be sure. But when she kissed him, all doubts faded. All he knew then was that he wanted to kiss her back.

"That's it? Thank…god…that that wasn't something else. When you confronted me last night at the station I couldn't believe the lights in the kitchen could've made you look anymore handsome but they did. Especially when you actually told me how you felt. How you knew we were equals. I've never heard you be so self-confident before."

"Oh, I couldn't have been more handsome, could I?" He asked with a grin. She smiled at him and he caressed her face, but shook his head. "But, to the point. The Chief." Chloe nodded.

"Ah. Well, Ella clued me in to some information about things you've told me before. That there was footage of you trying to show me your…face, in the evidence room. When I walked out, because I couldn't see it? It showed up on the camera. And then a lot of what she said regarding your other eccentric comments like your mother, your father, your brother? It made sense. So I guess when I realized you really were telling the truth I wanted to make sure you knew I believed you fully. So I pretended to be into the chief, because I wanted you, as in love with me, as I was with you. Jealousy has its perks."

Lucifer grinned. She'd never seen him so happy. He leaned his forehead against hers and she kissed his cheek, and then hugged him, hard.

"Excellent. Now you are small. Not one width bigger than the end of my little finger!" Lucifer said with a laugh. Chloe pulled back. "I've read Jane Eyre twice too many times, I must confess. Did you think nothing of the chief's feelings?"

"Feelings? That guy has feelings? I mean, excluding pride and that needs humbling."

"Won't he feel forsaken and deserted?" He replied in another voice that she'd grown to decipher as quoting voice.

"Jane Eyre again?"

"Yup"

"On the contrary, he deserted me when he thought I wouldn't lead him to Sinnerman." Chloe replied in her own quotation voice. He chuckled and kissed her again, then settled in the bed with her in his arms, just staring into space. This place was his home. Chloe Decker made his earth so happy, and real. He knew he loved her for that.

On the Flip Side Complete

‘And one day it'll be on the flip side. Chloe knows something that could potentially kill or hurt Luci and she's afraid of losing him and she has to keep it from him because she thinks him knowing will only make things worse. So she has to come up with a plan to save Lucifer and risk it all and go out of her way for him. In the middle of the hostage situation she's on the other side of the knife, pointing it at some angel that wants to end her boyfriend...’

Chloe pressed the gas hard, focusing on not crashing into people as she turned and grateful no one was in here with her, otherwise they would've gone flying. She breathed hard, trying to calm herself, and parked by a cigarette shop for a moment. Chloe pressed her eyes closed, and put her head against the headrest.

I'm doing this for Lucifer. I'm doing this for Lucifer. I'm doing this for the Lucifer I know. I don't want to lose him anymore. He isn't going to disappear for months on end again, not if I can help it.

Chloe reached into her pocket and withdrew something covered in cloth that Mazikeen had left there. She moved the cloth and saw the tip of something sharp and shiny. Quickly she covered it back up and put it back into her pocket, looking around to make sure no one saw it. Maze said it was Azrael's blade. That death was a woman, and this was her knife. She breathed and shook her head. It was a lot to take in. First, her roommate that she let babysit her daughter was an actual demon born in hell, then the bald black guy that sometimes appeared in the department wasn't an adopted brother of Lucifer's. He was his biological brother, and not only that, but an angel that could slow time. He had wings and everything.

And Lucifer. That was the only thing he told her. That he was the devil. She'd seen his face before time and again, seen what he could do, and was in deep denial about it all. Because how could the devil exist? How could someone be immortal? How could someone literally fall from the sky, hundreds of miles up, and survive that fall in one piece, no broken bones? How was any of this possible? She shook her head again and focused on what he'd said. She wasn't an ordinary woman, ordinary cop, ordinary mother; ordinary ex of a cop. She was born to be with Devil's one true love. The person that made him vulnerable so he could grow old with her. Her goodness wasn't something entirely taught to her by her father, it was something created within her, by an angel of God. By Lucifer's brother Amenadiel. He made it possible for her to be born. Which was why they couldn't be together before, when they first kissed. He learned who she really was from his mother. Another mind-blowing thought she couldn't let in her mind. But he couldn't stop himself from falling even more in love with her every time he was around her. Even when he was married. He was in love with her and even while he was explaining everything about his world he wasn't expecting her to want to be with him. Even if she was created to be with him. Because it was God's manipulation and he wanted her to be free from the tyrant, as he put it.

And oh wow, did that make her fall even more for him. He was an even better guy that she thought he had the potential to be. He must've seen that in her eyes, because he seemed so scared to be telling her all of this. Why wouldn't he? He told Dr. Linda this before and it 'broke' her. Knowing she wasn't going to scuttle into the fetal position or drive him out of her apartment with a pitchfork or a torch made him seem so much more comfortable. In fact he was starting to look at her like he did before their almost kiss the first time. And she liked that look.

But days after Lucifer told all of this to her, he disappeared again. If she hadn't gotten a message from him, she would've thought he ran away like usual. But he was just going to get something from Denver, Colorado. Something he had to show her when he got back.

Then one of his thousands of siblings showed up a day before he was supposed to be back. Kira, who looked like she was in her mid-twenties, had dark hair in a braid-bun and dark green eyes. All Kira had said was she was going to make sure she and Lucifer weren't going to be together. This was against their father's plan, against everything to do with angels and humans. So she was going to make sure Lucifer and she were separated forever.

That's when Chloe went to Maze. Asked her to explain everything because Lucifer had only told her who he was. And boy did Maze accommodate. But the one thing she said that Chloe couldn't live with was what Lucifer's sister was going to do. Kira was the angel that could mess with memories; angels, celestial beings, humans, anyone. She had given humanity their history, the bible. She'd been a big part of humanity's creation. Of course she wouldn't want it messed up, least of all by her rebellious older brother. So Kira was going to wipe Lucifer's memory of ever coming to earth. Make him forget her, what they had. Any and all friendships he'd had here and anything that made him progress. He wouldn't remember his mother's actions good or bad. But he also wouldn't remember that things had gotten better since he'd come here. And not only was Lucifer going to be shoved back into hell, he was going to be manipulated into thinking he was going to stay down there forever. He would live in torture like the rest of his subjects, but he would think he had to stay there. No more rebellious streak. No more thinking for himself. And Kira would come down to hell every once in a while to add another layer of memory to make him never want to go to earth again.

No. That couldn't happen. It wouldn't. Lucifer had done so much; he wasn't going to be forced back to square one because of some stupid laws that were frankly outdated and backwards ways of thinking. So she asked for Maze to back her up when she confronted Kira again. Maze didn't say anything, and soon Chloe realized she had something in her pocket. Maybe she was going into this alone. But not without something that she could actually use. Maze had explained that Lucifer may have bled because she shot him, but it was her affecting him that made that possible. No other angel whose residency was heaven would be vulnerable like that. The knife was her only option.

Even if she could tell Lucifer about his sister, what could he do? Kira seemed to radiant power, even in the short bit of time she'd monologue to Chloe. More so than Amenadiel ever did.

Her phone rang. It was Lucifer, and she wondered what she would say.

"Hey" She greeted.

"Hi, I'm coming back early, should be back in L.A in about two hours. If you'd like to meet at my place perhaps, talk a bit more? I could show you the object I've acquired but maybe you need a bit more time to process." He said.

"Uh, can't talk right now, but I'll let you know when I can meet up. I gotta go and do some stuff."

"Oh, is it a new case?" Lucifer asked with interest

"No, well yes it is, but not one you need to worry about. I got it."

"Miss Decker, if you don't tell me where you're going for the case I'll find out from the department." Lucifer warned with a laugh in his voice. Chloe smiled at the sound but shook her head.

"Lucifer, it's okay. It'll take me ten minutes. If you want to help a drug store not get robbed go down to Main Street. But beyond that there's not much happening."

"I thought you were a homicide detective."

"There's a chance it could turn violent and we don't know who the robber will be." Chloe lied.

"Alright then, count me in. I'll be there as soon as I'm back in L.A." Lucifer replied. Chloe nodded to herself. Lucifer out of his loft, Kira won't know where he is and won't be able to take him away. She'll have the time to talk to his sister."

"Okay, see you there." Chloe said. She hung up and slowed down, hoping she'll time it so that she gets to his loft right as he's left, missing him completely. Kira will have no hostage, and Lucifer wouldn't have to know anything.

She ran inside when she saw a suited figure leave with a skip in his step and checked that the Azrael blade was still in her pocket. Maze had warned her if she touched the knife without the cloth around it, she could lose control and just kill anyone around her. So she had tied a cable tie around it, the cloth wouldn't budge. As she came up the elevator, she could hear voices, even before the door opened.

"Hey brother,"

"No time to chat little sis I'm going to help solve a crime." Lucifer replied.

"That's what I want to talk to you about."

The elevator door opened and Chloe had a good view of Kira, Lucifer had his back to her but still heard the doors opening. Kira made eye contact and Chloe withdrew the knife, holding the cloth and pointing the tip at the angel of memory. How on earth was she going to pull this off?

"Chloe!" Lucifer greeted. "What're you, doing here?"

"Stand aside Lucifer; I need to talk to your sister." Chloe replied. Lucifer blinked and stepped out of the way, looking at both Kira and Chloe.

"I'm sorry, how do you know eachother?" Lucifer asked.

"You can't stop me, Detective." Kira said, ignoring Lucifer. Her guard stance making her seem bigger than she was.

"That's where you're wrong. You won't be able to go through with this."

"Why, because of the good in my heart?" Kira laughed. "There isn't any. Seeing the anger and violence and evil that's become of humanity, I lost mine. And now Lucifer needs to pay."

"Wha-what've I done?" Lucifer protested.

"Lucifer stop talking" Chloe cut in before Kira could monologue. The angel looked at her.

"You may have been made by my Father's decree, but that doesn't give you the right to order any of us around. You're still just a human."

"Just?" Lucifer interjected. "Watch your tongue, sister, if it weren't for her you'd be ashes on the ground right about now." Kira raised her eyebrow.

"Like you're so powerful, brother. You won't believe you have any advantage over me soon enough."

"Kira!" Chloe protested, trying to get her attention and effectively cutting off Lucifer's unspoken question. Kira glared at her in annoyance. "Should I be calling you that? Or maybe Angel Kira? Do angels have last names?" She asked gently

"Angel Kira will do." Kira decided.

"Right. Angel Kira, you don't have to do this. You're not just your father's errand runner, and maybe you don't know what it is that he wants. If I'm around, and it's affecting Lucifer the way I am, then maybe you have your information wrong. I'm just guessing, but maybe you need to go back to your father and talk things over." She said. Kira lowered her stance, letting her arms be limp at her sides.

"Why would my Father let his former favorite son fall in love with a human?" Kira asked.

"I don't know. But I think your father does. And right now he's the one with the answers. Do you think he really wants you to do what you're planning to Lucifer?" Chloe asked. "How do you think he's going to react if you pull it off?"

"It doesn't matter. Either way, no laws will be broken. The humans will continue to have their own history while the angels stand guard over them." Kira replied.

"Okay, okay. Look I'm sorry that Lucifer's been breaking the laws of heaven to do the things he has. But that doesn't mean he needs to be punished by you." One of those words made the angel's guard stance rise again, making Chloe need to think of a Plan B. The knife.

"If I don't put an end to this no one will, Detective." Kira protested. "This is unnatural. Lucifer has been an abomination since he has fallen and continues to sully his former name. This is not up for debate, and I will not be hindered from my mission." Kira said. She walked toward Lucifer with her hand raised and Chloe ducked as she came towards his sister, going under her arm and standing before Lucifer in protection. She pushed the angel away with one hand and Kira grabbed it.

Martial arts training she'd learned for her dad

Chloe shook her head and suddenly no longer remembered how she could keep Kira away. The only thing she had left was in her other hand. The knife slid into the angel's abdomen as easy as slipping a needle through cloth. Kira gasped, grabbing the knife and stumbled backwards. Chloe put a protective hand out across Lucifer, making sure he wouldn't move, and they watched the angel of memory fall down, gripping the hilt of the blade tightly.

"Detective." Lucifer gasped. Chloe looked back at him and hugged him with one arm.

"It's alright Lucifer, you're safe. You're safe." She said. Lucifer bent himself into her embrace and Chloe put her other arm around him. Lucifer watched as Kira slowly gasped for air, until a sputter of sparks flew, and she collapsed on the ground, eyes closed peacefully, and was still.

Chloe closed her eyes and felt gratitude that she was able to protect him. He was safe and he wasn't going anywhere. He wouldn't forget her; he wasn't going to be in any more pain. She saved him from that. Then she pulled away and Lucifer looked at her and she looked at her wrist that Kira had grabbed.

"Why did I suddenly forget how to defend myself the way I was used to?" Chloe asked.

"Perhaps you know, Chloe. I suppose Maze informed you on Kira's powers. No doubt the memories that Kira took have been returned." Lucifer replied. Chloe nodded, remembering clearly about how to grab someone's arm and throw them to the ground. As if it was a brand-new memory.

"What does that knife do?" Chloe asked.

"It's Azrael's blade. The blade destroys celestial beings, and so when you…did what you did, Kira's action was undone." Lucifer replied. "I had to use it once."

"Why?" She asked.

"Because you were in danger. My brother wanted my Mum back in hell, and I refused to send her back so he threatened to take you away." Lucifer said, looking at her mouth. "If I hadn't stopped him with the knife, you wouldn't have been able to save me."

"I guess we make a good team then." Chloe murmured. Lucifer smiled and rested his forehead against hers. Chloe closed her eyes and then hugged him again, savoring how his arms felt around her. When she pulled back, she kissed his cheek, smiling at Lucifer's surprised face.

"Even in knowing what my true face is, you chose to kiss me?" He asked. She nodded.

"There is nothing that'll push me away, Lucifer. Just count on that right now." Chloe promised. Lucifer breathed a laugh and swept her up in his arms, Chloe laughing in surprise. Then he put her down and Chloe took his hand.

"Let's go get a drink. Need one after everything that's happened today." She said. Lucifer nodded in agreement and let her lead him to the elevator.

I know it’s an odd name for an angel, Kira; but the closest angel name I could find to her powers was from Islam; Kiraman Kaitibin which was one that recorded human history, actions and feelings.
