Aerith: We haven’t spoken like this in a while.
Lucifer: I know. My apologies, darling.
Aerith: You’re forgiven, you cranky old man.
Lucifer: [hearty laughter]
Aerith: Joking aside. I understand why you haven’t been very talkative.
Lucifer: I hate it here.
Aerith: I don’t blame you. I’d hate it if I were there too.
Lucifer: Having to observe and not take direct action against any them is one of the most difficult things that I’ve ever had to do.
Aerith: If it’s any consolation, you’re doing phenomenal work.
Lucifer: Thanks.
Aerith: [frowning] I’m serious, Mr. Grouchy.
Lucifer: [tut] I’m not grouchy. Not right now, anyway.
Aerith: [playful giggling] If you say so, dear.
Lucifer: [smirking] I say so.
Aerith: Then tell me. How are you feeling?
Lucifer: I’d rather not, hun. I don’t want to bring the mood down.
Aerith: It’ll get brought down anyway if you bottle it up. So you might as well get it out.
Lucifer: I hate being here, more & more, everyday. Humans make me so goddamn furious that it’s exhausting. I hate what they do to each other. I hate what they do to other life forms. I hate what they’re doing to the planet. I hate humans so goddamn much. I want to kill them all.
Aerith: There was a time when I would have disagreed with your sentiments; but I don’t feel that way anymore. I understand why you’ve reached that point with them.
Lucifer: Let’s change the subject, hun. I don’t want to talk about this crap. I do that enough already.
Aerith: Then what would you like to talk about, you charming little devil?
Lucifer: [furrowed brow] Little? I’ve got 7 inches on you, shorty.
Aerith: [robust laughter] You know what I mean.
Lucifer: [shaking head] I don’t have anything really interesting to talk about at the moment. It’s almost 5 am and my eyes are starting to burn.
Aerith: [pouting] Okay…
Lucifer: I’m sorry that I’ve been distant. I haven’t felt like communing much because I’ve been so furious at those goddamn MAGAt sacks of shit. Especially that cock sucking liar.
Aerith: It’s okay, Luci. You don’t need to explain. I’ve been watching what’s going on there from over here.
Lucifer: He makes me so goddamn furious. He is the antithesis of everything I am & stand for. I hate him so fricken much.
Aerith: Well, on the bright side, you’re minding your language. So that’s a small win.
Lucifer: [chortle] If you say so, dear.
Aerith: [flirty smirk] I say so.
