prompt: Lucifer stealing Jack’s Grace
Monster... Monster... Monster...
It was all that seemed to echo in his head. Nothing but a monster... Just a monster... He wanted to ignore it. Told himself he should ignore it. But it didn’t work. Instead the anger grew stronger, gripping him, that familiar rage that had taken hold so many times-- Lash out. That was what Lucifer wanted to do. What he’d always done.
“I just need your power--”
Deep down, deep, deep down, Lucifer knew it wasn’t right. Even as he made the cut to siphon the Grace, even as he felt it fuel his own, he hated himself. But what did it matter? Every single one of them--no matter what he did--would always see him the same way. Always.
He’d be a monster in their eyes, in the eyes of his family, in the eyes of the world.
So why not just embrace it? Why keep fighting it?
It wasn’t getting him anywhere.
They’re always going to be against me. Always. The hell with them all...
He’d be the monster they wanted him to be.
Since obviously they couldn’t see him as anything else.
