He smiled wide because his mother was everything that Lucifer said and more “What’s God like and heaven? I’ve always wondered but I never asked Aunt Anna about it when I should have.”
Lucifer choked on his own laughter before composing himself enough to speak.
“Heaven is beautiful, as fledglings, we were taught that it was a safe place where out father and siblings would always protect us. I believed in Michael, I trusted him to protect me until my death, and I was trusted with Gabriel. My father…is a coward.” his wings felt prickly as he spoke “he thought all was good with the world, and then when, heaven forbid I began to form my own opinions about the world down here, he cast me down.” he had to stop talking or he would go on a rant and surely scare the boy away.
He listened to Lucifer with rapt attention his face turning grim as the other spoke of being cast out. His hand unconsciously reached out to Lucifer to offer comfort but he stopped himself unsure how it would be received. “So life with your siblings was good though?” He asked hoping to direct the conversation in a hopefully happier direction. Hearing a yip he turned to see Cupcake come bounding over to him a squirrel dangling half dead from his mouth. He smiled over at his ‘hound and mussed up his ears.
“Up until father cast me down, yes. Normal sibling rivalry kinds of deals” he nodded “ and who is this?”
He lifted his eyes to look back at Lucifer "This is Cupcake he's my Hellhound. I've had him since I was really little. He goes with me everywhere."
