( sidney's been tired. even after some time of rest, with their current situation it's just... a lot, and he can't really recover when he's also dealing with this sort of sleeping conditions and rations.

he's also been affectionate the moment he's been given the go, he knows. it's nice, being able to do that, actually- but he's also relying on clamor and lucifer a lot. sara and noah too, when they're there. he's not used to being the one needing help, even though he talks about everyone needing it sometimes. it's...

...

not important right now. what's important is that clamor wants to talk, and sidney is sitting down and leaning heavily on lucifer, head on the other's shoulder, because he can and because he feels unbalanced even now. it's- it's fine. )

Did something happen, Clamor?

[carpevinum]

[Lucifer, meanwhile, is living his best life because he has two cute mens he can dote on whenever the hell he wants, which means he's taking full advantage of it. Romantic as he is — a hidden trait from a man who's too prideful to even hold others on his same pedestal, usually — he can't help it. Pride isn't just raising oneself up; if they deserve it, he'll raise others up, too. Which is, you know, precisely what he wants to do to Sidney and Clamor; if they take pride in themselves, he gets a kick of enjoyment from it. Demons are attracted to sin, after all, no matter how small.

His caretaking is never-ending currently, and that means he's absolutely letting Sidney use him as a pillow and he's absolutely thrilled to continue to do so, as long as Sidney needs.

And then Clamor comes in, and the door is locked, and the words we need to have a talk register. If Lucifer were an anxious man, he'd think that means something bad, but of course Lucifer simply thinks this means: Something happened in this cesspool we're all trapped in, we're going to war.]

What's the matter?

[The smile, though... hm. What could possibly be up?]

[sunstead]

[He sighs, a little of his frustration seeping out... but if it was something dangerous or upsetting, he'd probably start with that right away. Instead he crosses the room to where they're seated, pulling out a chair and sitting himself down across from them. He leans forward, elbows propped on his knees, hands steepled just under his chin.

just... give him a minute here to prepare himself. this is serious. he has to just come out and say it already.]

So. About us. Is this just a casual thing, or are you two more... involved? [were they already dating before??? fuck if he knows, maybe he's just their casual +1, that's kind of what he's used to being at best...]

Don't get me wrong. I'm perfectly fine with this arrangement, it's just... I know we talked about dates, but no one's said anything about dating.

[wolfetracks]

( so

gonna be honest

he wasn't expecting this. maybe he should have been? but he's not been at his usual standards for a bit. great injuries do that- he's getting back up there, though. but sidney is still visibly caught off guard, confused and almost at a loss at the question before...

god damn it they really just assumed, huh. after a moment, sidney shifts just a bit to lean forward. )

Clamor, when I said I love you both, I did mean both. I want you in my life, as a serious partner, just as much as I want Lucifer the same way.

( oh god if his mother could hear him now. )

[carpevinum]

[You know, if Asmo were here, he'd be laughing his ass off, which is not a comforting thought at all.]

And I believe I mentioned caring deeply for you both in the same way at the time. [Pause. Let him reword that; Lucifer's always been a bit stubborn when it comes to emotions.] What I mean to say is, I do love you both, and I apologise for making that unclear to you.

I will say this, though. To me, dates are part of dating, and when I mentioned a while back that I would enjoy showing the two of you off, I meant it. Not just parading you around as yourselves, but as mine.

[sunstead]

I wouldn't say it's been unclear... [ugh he feels kind of embarrassed for even asking now, but it's obviously too late to back out. he just wanted to be sure, okay!! isn't it normal to communicate these things?? what happened to the "ask" in "ask them out"]

... well, I didn't want to make any assumptions. Emotions were running high... I was under the impression that humans preferred monogamy, and I wouldn't even know where to start with demon culture—

But I'm glad! ["relieved" might be a better word, but the result is the same. he'd been a bit anxious before, but now he finally starts to relax and ease back into a smile. just being able to hear that "I love you" again, knowing that it's equal and not purely circumstantial... it's enough to make his heart flutter, and maybe he doesn't have to think about how rarely he's been told those words in the past, if they ever meant anything at all.

none of that matters right now. he just wants to be happy for once.]

Honestly, I just wish you'd both said something sooner! I love you both, too—sorry, I guess I missed my chance to say that before, didn't it? But I really do. I should've said something sooner...

[wolfetracks]

Ah... I haven't been thinking clearly lately. I'm sorry, Clamor. Had I been in better condition, I would have made sure you knew fully and were okay with everything.

( that said, clamor seems to accept their answers? so sidney reaches out to him, an open invitation to come closer. he wants his sweet elf, okay... but he does crack a smile, too. )

You've nothing to be sorry for. Though... I'll admit, I'd been flirting for months.

( back touches while teaching how to cook, anybody? )

[carpevinum]

I assumed that you were well aware of how I felt about you when we were alone in your homeroom that day.

[howareyouthisoblivious.jpeg

Lucifer does not elaborate further on that, if Sidney's mind wants to wander it's free to. ...but also it's Clamor, so, how far can it wander, really. (Sorry.)]

Come here, Clamor. We have lost time to make up for, don't we?

[Lucifer what does that mean—]

[sunstead]

No, no—it's fine, Sidney! You don't have to apologize for anything, either. [because yeah, he'd kinda lost an arm at the time and was waiting for medical treatment, it's fair that he didn't think to check... and Clamor wasn't exactly open about his insecurities from the start. haha.] And... and I know, [they have not been subtle] I guess I'm just used to... I mean, I've been flirted with before, but no one was ever really serious about it, since—

[he

has not broached the half-elf topic

and instead of doing that, he just laughs awkwardly and pretends he wasn't about to say something else. yeah, this is fine. I mean, neither of them even have elves in their worlds, right? let's just not think about it.

he'd rather get up and join the gay cuddlepile Sidney and Lucifer have all warmed up for him, so he'll do exactly that, hello, just send him to tiddy heaven he's here to embrace them both]

[wolfetracks]

... Wow, the people in your home world are idiots. You're incredible?

( he's legitimately confused as to who wouldn't be seriously interested in perusing a relationship with clamor, actually- like, help? how could anyone not want him? but clamor is busy crawling into the middle of them and sidney is happy to press a soft kiss to the side of his head and hold him as best he can. )

If they want to be fools, it's their loss. I'm happy to keep you all for us.

[carpevinum]

[Lucifer catches onto the way Clamor trails off, but he doesn't press. There's no reason to press, really; if Clamor doesn't want to share, it's his business. The more important thing is the fact that Lucifer can now hug him, isn't it?]

I assure you, I am nothing like Asmo, [who neither of them have met but it's fine,] and I don't simply flirt to flirt. I've been serious about both of you since we first locked eyes.

[...well, okay, he's been seriously thinking they were both absolute snacks from the first, actually, but in a more lowkey sort of way. The romantic interest came a bit later, but his point stands. Lucifer is not the sort of man who fucks around for fun.]

As Sidney stated, I'm more than thrilled to keep you for the both of us.
