[He isn't letting anyone else who happens to find out beat him to the punch...]

Hey, Charlie.
There's something I need to tell you.
Mind meeting me at my house?

[Houseboat, but... details.]

Hm?

Yeah, sure. Where do you live?

[What is this boss music that is looming in the background that she hears?]

[He sends her the location in the form of a circled place on a map.]

Does that work?

[If it doesn't work, they can probably just meet at the City Hall or something.]

Yeah, that's fine! I'll see you then!

[And with that, off she went! As she made her way to his home, she gave a knock on his door!]

Dad, you there? It's me, Charlie! You wanted to talk to me about something?

[He takes a deep breath before opening the door, and immediately hugging her!]

Charlie! My daughter, the beloved person I love more than anything, hello! [Oh no.] Here you go, have a seat!

[Lucifer ushers her inside, and over to the couch.]

[Those words were definitely telling her something. Raising an eyebrow or so, she sat on the couch before giving him a look.]

...Okay? Did something happen?

[No seriously, what happened this time???]

[He lets out a heavy sigh before sitting next to her.]

... I promised to do better at communicating with you, and I'd rather be the one you find out about this from. Since... this place likes to spring weird stuff on us! [The thought of her finding out from, say... Mr. TV Head Man? Because of some forced truth thing? Is nightmare fuel, for him.] Soooo...

[Lucifer pauses to rub his face.]

Yesterday, I... maybe got carried away. An argument with the TV Guy led to... [This is where it gets really awkward! He doesn't want Charlie knowing his sex life! Open sex culture of Hell aside, she's still his daughter.] ... us... getting along better?

[Then, there was a long pause from Charlie. As she leaned a little closer to her dad. she just whispered.]

...How did you guys get along?

[As happy as she was to know that he and Vox got along, she can't help but wonder that there must be something a little bit more than that.]

[Oh God how does he even answer this...

... With his face, apparently. He groans and drags his hood down to cover it. Finally, the dam breaks and he tries to do some quick "repair" work.]

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it was just so! I thought he wasn't being serious, but then it turned out he was very serious, and by that point, I couldn't just back out, without looking even more pathetic, or something, and then one thing just led to another, and we do still clearly hate each other, and...

[... Charlie might want to just make him shut up at this rate.]

[There were a lot of things that Charlie could handle. This was not one of them! While she was aware that her father had a fairly active sex life with her mother, it was sure another having the mental image of him and Vox do it!!!!]

Dad, dad!! Stop!!!

[She placed her hands on his shoulders]

You don't need to continue! I know what you're talking about! Just...

[How can she word this?]

Really? Out of all people, you really did it with him?

[Thankfully he does stop almost immediately upon hearing the first three words.]

I know, it's... [He drags his hands down his own face.] ... I hadn't even been drinking!

[He made the decision while sober, and everything! What a mess...]

... Really, there's no excuse. I just... let my feelings get the best of me, and...

[Fucked up, again?]

[Charlie just stared at her dad not really knowing what to say. Instead, she gave a small sigh before shaking her head.]

...But you won't do it again, right? The important thing is that we learn from it and we realize our mistakes.

Thaaaaat's... augh.

[And this is where it gets really tricky. With some of the weird things that happen in this city, it feels like setting himself up for failure to just outright promise he won't... But he does quickly scramble for some kind of compromise.]

I can't promise this city won't pull something that compromises my judgment. What I can promise is that I'll... be way more careful? [This is such a difficult, sticky situation. Since he can't promise what she wants, he decides to go with route of something else she believes in.] I'm going to prioritize... working on myself.

There's, uh... these... therapists? I'm... [This is. So. Painful.] ... gonna start going to therapy.

[GOD, he doesn't want to. He so, so, so very much does not want to.]

[That was fair, this world could do what it wants to mess with them. Giving a long sigh, she placed her hand over her face.]

If you're going to, let me know when. [There, she gave a mumble or two.] I know that there isn't much we could do in hell but I want to help you out.

[She gave a small sigh.] I don't know if they'll let me into therapy but I think there are a few things that could help if we talked it out.

Hey bitch.

[ That's an excellent start! Adam thinks at least. When texting someone out of the blue who absolutely hates you, even though you're now crippled with her father's emotions because God saw you beat the crap out of him...

Oh, this... This can only go well... ]

[Well, look who it is! If it isn't her most favorite of people to talk to!]

Yes? How can I help you?

[ Maybe he should open with 'Hi! God revamped Freaky Friday with your old man and me' before he even starts typing this- But holy fucking shit if Lucifer's thoughts and feelings about his daughter are distracting him from anything else at the moment! ]

I wish I could protect you better, guide you without making mistakes, without letting my cynicism touch you.

I wish I could tell you that your dream—your ridiculous, impossible, shining dream—is something I admire, even if I can’t share it.
