Isla San Pedro, Chile, Wednesday Afternoon

Summer's voicemail about the painting had come in yesterday. It was the first message from Fandom since they'd taken off before the holidays. And it felt a little like they were being called back. Like it was time to re-join real life again.

But not yet. Not just yet.

For now, Octavia had a picked a stretch of beach - not a particular one, just a nice one - to wade out into the water from. She was feeling the sun on her skin, some very gentle waves against her legs.

And just breathed.

Lucifer laughed. "I thought you'd never bloody ask," he said. "Lead on, merman."

Duke let out a delighted laugh in return and scrambled up, leading the way into the water.

And Lucifer dashed after him, snagging him around the waist moments after they'd fully entered the water.

Duke turned, bending his legs and leaning back to pull Lucifer with him, deeper into the water. Letting their natural buoyancy hold them up.

"I think you might be wearing too many clothes."

Lucifer chuckled. "By all means, unthong me."

"If you insist."

Duke hooked his thumbs under Lucifer's waist band and slid it downward, nice and slow.

Lucifer kicked his feet helpfully for the last bit of the way, grinning like a fool. "Why, thank you."
betterthanaplan: (pleased)

"Any time," Duke said. "Which you're well aware." He leaned back to start floating again, tugging Lucifer with him. "Tavi called me an otter."

"Are you going to insist we hold hands?"
betterthanaplan: (thoughtfully amused)

[personal profile] betterthanaplan 2023-01-10 08:23 pm (UTC)(link)
"Do you want me to insist that we hold hands?" Duke asked. "I was just saying she called me an otter. Which I think is cute."
my_own_advocate: (lucifer - shirtless grin)

"Well, you're dragging me about in the water and reflecting on how Octavia feels you're a small sea animal prone to holding hands with other otters," Lucifer teased, letting himself float a bit. "It's not a strange assumption to jump to."
betterthanaplan: (pleased)

[personal profile] betterthanaplan 2023-01-10 08:40 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, yeah." Duke snorted and shook his head. "You'd love it if we held hands like otters. Admit it."
my_own_advocate: (lucifer - fondness is in the eyes)

"I think it would be very silly," said Lucifer.

That was not a no, no.
