General information about our situation is not unhelpful, Satan.
[ It is his pointed reply to ensure that the demon doesn't disregard information because it doesn't hold all the answers. ]
Hm.
[ The thoughtful sound slips out as he stares at the bright smile. There are a lot of ways to interpret the smile. It might be that Mammon exaggerated and saw something that is not there. It could be that Satan did not want him to know. Or he's annoyed that Lucifer is asking after the relationships that he has.
Lucifer has let up a lot on his "monitoring" of Satan in the past centuries, but he does remember how he would attempt to be part of every part of Satan's life. His eyes shift to the side, as he wonders if he's bringing up those memories, before returning to looking at his smile.
His expression remains just as calm as ever, thoughtful even. ]
Have you uncovered anything worth sharing?
[ He decides to put it that way, like it's a casual report rather than concern and interest. ]
He didn't mention that to me. It's good to hear there is someone that's keeping him out of trouble. Especially since it sounds like he has been unsupervised for the past six months. [ Lucifer doesn't expect Satan to have to worry about his older brother; that matter should be left to other people. Satan should just live as happily as he can, as far as he is concerned. ]
Where? I intend to stay -- [ He hesitates. ] -- I'll live by myself. I'll just get a headache if I attempt to live nearby, anyway. [ Even though he says that Mammon should not be unsupervised, he doesn't want to fall into his old bad habits. When they fell to Devildom, he smothered everyone and attempted to control everything; he doesn't want to become that person again.
But also knows himself very well; so, he's putting distance between him and the temptation. ]
