Well he already has that. So maybe changing my approach a little will help more.

From:

dadbeatdad

Think of it as expending the approach you're already doing. Just more. Since you're already on the right track.

From:

Heh, at least someone thinks I am.

From:

dadbeatdad

Sometimes all a person needs is a little support and someone to believe in them to keep going.

From:

Now just imagine if more people heard the devil giving pep talks.

...but seriously. Thanks. All I was asking for was for you to give me an outlet so I don't do something stupid.

From:

dadbeatdad

They'd be shocked and it would be so funny.

Well I mean, giving you an outlet also means giving you a pep talk. You're doing what you can. And no matter how it does, good or bad, you are trying. That's what matters.

You know, I actually kind of hate that I had to come to another world to start hearing that?

[He grumbles and turns to lay on the couch, the top of his head almost touching Lucifer's leg and his legs hanging over the couch arm.]

From:

Every world needs a scapegoat. One the world can lay the blame for their sins upon. One heaven can declare is the villain.

[His fingers gently run through Wukong's hair. Just combing it through.]

But here? Heaven has jurisdiction. Your heaven, or mine. Here, we get to choose. And if some can't let that go, that isn't an us problem.

From:

retirementsnotsopeachy

...has anyone been giving you problems with that?

From:

dadbeatdad

My wife.

[The answer is spoken softly. His fingers still running through orange hair.]

Before she left me. The mortals of my world, so many of them. All of heaven. Even...Sara.

From:

[He should have specified "here", but that's still heartbreaking and he reaches back to wrap both arms around Lucifer's waist in a firm hug.]

From:

dadbeatdad

Thank you friend. [He pats Wukong's head.] I have been fortunate. No one here has. Yet. But they might. If they do, I'll simply remind them they have Free Will. They make their own choices. I have no power over that. And I would never want to.
