Brothers Accidentally Make the MC Cry
Hello, this is the obligatory italics blurb that I have to put under my titles or else things look weird and it bothers me. Donât mind the blurb. The blurb is a friend. (Though I could start writing pieces of a little story up here just to see if anyone even reads them⊠HmâŠ. Ideas, ideasâŠ)
If he were being honest, heâd say that a part of him had always feared this would happenâŠ
Lucifer likes to tell himself that heâs invincible, but everyday stresses can get to him just like anybody else. And like other people, he may not always act his best when heâs dealing with a full plateâŠ
The MC hadnât meant to make his day harder when they told him that they accidentally broke a lamp. It was a genuine accident! But Lucifer was still dealing with the fallout from another one of Mammonâs failed schemes, Satan had cursed all of his ties again, and Beel had eaten every scrap of food in the House⊠for the second time that weekâŠ
In comparison to everything else, a broken lamp was quite minor, but for Lucifer it was just the last straw and, for just a moment, he lost controlâŠ
His palm slamming against his desk hard enough to snap its legs and send it crashing to the ground. He scarcely knew what kind of look he had on his face, but whatever it was, he had made his human jump back in shockâŠ
Really, it was silly for them to assume that he had gotten that upset over a lamp, but he saw tears starting to gather in their eyes all the same as they stammered out a quiet apologyâŠÂ
It felt like an ice spike to the heart. Damn his temper⊠He really ought to have been more careful with them after⊠well, everything heâd done beforeâŠ
He was quick to go over to them, catching their face with his hand and giving them the most sincere apology he could muster while wiping away their tears⊠Overreactions arenât becoming of him and he hated to cause them painâŠÂ
He, of course, took care of the lamp himself as penance and on the surface that seemed to be it (but to anyone paying attention, he had softened up on the MC considerably for at least a week. They probably could have sworn in front of Diavolo and heâd let it slide, he felt that bad about itâŠ)
âIâm sorry, MC, I shouldnât have reacted like that⊠You havenât done anything wrong, I promise⊠Please, thereâs no need to cryâŠâ
