[CHRIST ALMIGHTY.

LITERALLY.

This is probably the first time in a long time she's been genuinely surprised.]

You're--!?

[deiform]

[ ... wait. wait just a second. he suddenly yelps a little, stumbling an involuntary step back in surprise and dropping both his glass and plate (which wink out of existence before hitting the floor). ]

L-Lucifer?! [ um. he claps both hands to his mouth, embarrassed by the pitch of his voice, coloring a little beneath his fingers. ] .. I-- S-Sorry, I didn't recognize you at first. [ the lucifer he knows tends to have a flair for the dramatic, after all. ]

[individualist]

[...alright, not exactly the response Lucifer was expecting, but. Okay.

In any case, clearly acting otherwise is a waste of time, so just gonna drop the whole "hi im an unassuming schoolgirl with no ties to the devil whatsoever" act.]

[Probably going to end up taking this far too seriously, but.]

Your arrival here has far surpassed my expectations. I imagined one of His tools would arrive, but the Son of God himself...just what is He planning for this world?

[deiform]

.. Eh? [ since when did lucifer start talking like this? but then again, different worlds and all..

slowly lowering his hands, he hesitates, then tucks a few stray strands of hair back behind an ear, shaking his head slightly. ] Father isn't planning anything that I know of. I came here because they asked for help.

[ and actually, he'd completely forgotten to tell buddha or at least one of the angels. he has to wince at the thought-- honestly, when did he become so absent-minded..? ]

1/2

[individualist]

[what

No, wait, this is the same bullshit they feed humans. CLEARLY this is some attempt at throwing her off guard!! YEAH THAT'S IT.]

[individualist]

Do you think me a fool? I won't accept those same lies Heaven so oft whispers into the ears of humanity.

God is always one step behind me. Do you honestly believe I would accept that here, for no apparent reason, that trend would change? Your timing is just a coincidence?

[SHE'LL GET USED TO HIM BEING A GENUINELY GOOD PERSON...eventually. Hopefully.]

[deiform]

L-Lies..? [ he actually looks a little upset and definitely confused. ] .. Lucifer, you know that Father and I don't.. lie. I-- I mean-- [ he pokes his fingers together a little, color rising in his face. ] I guess I try to be a little roundabout about who I am when I'm on Earth so that no one really realizes, but that's because I'm just trying to be a.. normal guy there. And it's not like I'm really lying about it, I'm just not being.. open..

[ he's getting off on a tangent. he clears his throat, glancing back up, brows drawing together. ]

A-Anyway, ah.. I think maybe we got off on the wrong foot? [ he's never been the best with lucifer. between the constant attempts to tempt him into sin, the tsun behavior, popping up at inconvenient times.. and this one seems just as complicated in different ways. ] I don't think you're the Lucifer I'm accustomed to. He usually has a different body. And I'm.. pretty sure I'm not the same Yeshua you're used to..?

[individualist]

...

[Ugh, right...even if this guy is lying, isn't it best they not fight? He'll probably be more agreeable if they're on good terms, so...]

If you must address me-- [And then her tone...shifts. It's a lot less authoritative, lot less mature...it moves aside for one that's far more befitting of her appearance, softer, more casual, but laced with mild exasperation. Honestly, it's one of those moments she shows she really deserves that Prince of Lies title.] --Hikaru. Got it? My name's Hikaru. You're not the only one who has to go around hiding their identity cause of their...family.

[Loathe as she is to call any of them that, but it's just how she speaks about them when she's pretending. Not to mention it's totally their fault anyway.]

Anyway...I've never actually met you or anything, but that doesn't mean I couldn't recognize you. You're the spiritual equivalent of a lighthouse.

[deiform]

[ another blink, then his expression dissolves into a helpless smile. ] 'Hikaru'. That's pretty. I didn't realize that you were in Japan, too. Buddha and I are on vacation there.

[ yeah, you heard that right. ]

At least, we were until all of-- [ a wave to indicate this whole place. ] --you know, all of this. [ and about his power.. he winces a little, rubbing the back of his neck. ] .. I know, there's no real turning it off. Usually it settles down after a little while, though.

[individualist]

Definitely not your Japan...but 'a' Japan. I've been to Tokyo a lot.

[Because for some unexplained reason that's where Law and Chaos have all their apocalyptic battles.]

But wait, wait, did you say you were on...vacation. With Buddha?

[She has no words.]
