I raise my flag and dye my clothes. It's a revolution, I suppose

Lucifer may have taken the pudding... then again maybe not. " Really Daniel you think I have nothing better to do than to steal your pudding? Honestly I am hurt youd think such a thing. "ย ย he made sure there was no proof he did it. "ย And should you really be eating all that pudding? "
There's a reason that revelations of celestial beings aren't so frequent. Sure, there have been stories. Usually from homeless men on the corner block, hard working citizens who fall on hard times, turning to alcohol and drugs, and delusion by association. She's seen quite a bit of that when the job takes her to less than desirable parts of town, and always brushed it off, until she met and fell in love with the actualย Devil. She can even remember telling him, to hisย face, that she didn't believe he - or any of his family members, for that matter - existed. She pictures Lucifer's signature chuckle as she would remind him of that, and for the smallest of moments, she smiles.
It's short lived however, as she waits anxiously at Dan's door. She's not the only one on the force thats been worried about him. Like any other work place, there are whispers - gossip. Their divorce still gets brought up from time to time and that was years ago. He's been slipping. Paperwork, professionalism in general. The last time she'd seen him, he looked as though he hadn't slept in days. He looks about the same when he finally opens the door, she observes, and completely unaware that he should be expecting company. She rolls her eyes before she can help it. It's one thing for to slip up a little at work, but with Trixie? No, this can't go on.ย
"Don't apologize to me," she mutters quietly.
She tilts her head to where Trixie is finishing bringing her things to the door. All the necessities, including her brand new set of art supplies and sketchbook, which Lucifer had given her only two days prior. She normally discourages such gifts, but he had argued that it's clearly an investment, and 'the child needs a creative outlet, Detective, unless you want her to grow up to be another emotionally constipated and overly dependent delinquent'. Really, it's the need for him to stop talkingย that often makes her cave.
"Are you feeling okay, daddy?" Trixie asks, clearly noticing the change in his appearance as well. How could she not? The smell of alcohol hangs heavy in the air, his eyes have bags bigger than Lucifer's most expensive travel luggage. Something is clearly wrong and there's no hiding that.ย
"Babe, why don't you go put your stuff down while daddy and I have a little chat, yeah?"
Their daughter is far from an idiot. She knows when she's being asked to leave for a reason that's not being talked about. Adult things, more specifically. Thankfully, she doesn't argue, and wraps her father in a brief side hug, before heading to her room. Silence hangs heavy between Chloe and her ex-husband once they're alone; she's unsure of where to start, because she didn't exactly handle the realization well either.ย
She follows him to the kitchen, watching as he makes himself a cup of coffee, and without even being lectured. That's something, she thinks. He's in there somewhere. She leans against the countertop, unsure if she should sit or stand. She feels like pacing, yelling, because he can't let this eat him alive. There's so much left to be here for, instead of wasting away. As ironic as it is, Luciferย showed her that.
"Dan, you can't keep doing this," she starts.ย
"You can't keep drinking yourself into a stupor, hoping to forget." Forgetting isn't an option, as proven by her trip to Rome. She ran, only to find herself in the grasp of a psychopath, who nearly succeeded in using her to do something she would've never forgiven herself for. Acceptance is the way, no matter how long it takes to get there. "I know this is hard. When I first found out... I didn't take it well either, you know?" Understatement of the year, Decker. You nearly sent the man you love to Hell.
"The truth is, though, he's never lied to us. He's always been upfront about who he is."ย
It doesn't make it any easier to swallow, she knows, but that's not really the point. She's trying to help Dan remember all that there is to Lucifer apart from his devilishness. "Despite your differences, you two have actually managed some sort of friendship. I know he eats your pudding, and maybe he did try to put a live snake in your desk..." Crap, did he know about that before? Oh well. Hardly the point, again. "He's never hurt us, nor would he ever, and I believe you know that. He's done nothing but try to keep me safe - to keep us allย safe, even by putting himself in the line of fire. That's got to count for something. At the very least, it should mean he deserves more than being gunned down."
I might have said something, because it's nice, and you two need more of that.ย Just... don't shoot him again. I don't care if he's invulnerable, I'll do a lot more than yell next time.
Call me sometime to set up that breakfast. Trixie misses her dad.
Well forgive me for trying to help you. Your ass is so tight Im surprised you dont have dimoands coming out if it. You need to loosen up. Dont worry if you are going to heaven or hell.ย Live life and stop being a douche for once.
She still replays the moment in her head, remembers where she was when she heard it. The deafening sound of a single shot fired in the penthouse. The way her blood ran cold as she stood in the dim light of Luciferโs lavish bedroom. How her brain was still processing, but her feet seemed to move of their own accord. The pain in her knees as she fell to them beside him, praying to whoever would listen that this wasnโt it. She couldnโt - no, she wouldnโt - lose the man she loved now. Not like this, not when she just got him, for crying out loud.ย
If she really stops and thinks, her brain will tell her that she was too hard on Dan. After all, she nearly killed Lucifer herself after finding out he's the actual devil. The poison, Kinley... it had nearly cost her everything, but she had been willing, out of fear.ย Her heart? Well, it was ready to punch Dan in his terrified face. Itโs only a stroke of luck that Luciferโs invulnerability returned, otherwise... No. No. Donโt think about that, she tells herself. Donโt conjure up the image of Lucifer Morningstar bleeding out in your arms, and all over his penthouse floor. Not again.ย
Itโs Danโs weekend with their daughter, which has Trixie more than a little excited. Danโs been a bit more MIA than usual, and while Trixie doesnโt speak too much of how it hurts her, Chloe just knows. They need to spend some quality time together. It would be good for the both of them, really. Plus, sheโs really wanting to make sure Dan isnโt planning to try and kill her boyfriend again. Yeah, that would be nice.
With Trixie on her heels, she stops at Danโs door, and knocks. Usually sheโd call, but he doesnโt seem to he a fan of those either these days. One way or another, though, sheโs getting to the bottom of this. They all have to find a way to coexist. They just have to.
