Claudia's been missing for several months, and Gabriel has turned everywhere he could think of upside-down to find her. He searched all of Earth aside from those few places warded against angels, he searched all of Hell--eliminating a ton of demons in the process--and even searched Heaven. All to no avail. It was like she no longer existed.
Then came a video with no return address. A porn video. One that involved demons, which made it... rather less than entertaining than the one he's done, given his own didn't involve anyone dying. One of those demons being an apparently possessed Claudia made it clear where the inspiration came from. The demon must have dug around in her head.
A couple of days of working on figuring out the location of the video later, he's figured out where to go. After dropping off the ferret and dog at the bed and breakfast due to not knowing how long he would be gone, he heads over there, appearing with an almost silent whisper of wings. He explores the building cautiously, keeping his power on a leash to avoid betraying his presence any more than absolutely needed.

Date: 2016-05-02 12:46 am (UTC)From:Ignoring his brother's mouth snapping shut with a scowl, he turns his attention back to Claudia. "You've done well. You should probably change to something drier and not soaked with holy water. I'll let you know when I want you again."
In other words, she's been dismissed. If she's fast, she may have enough time for a shower to wash away the holy water still touching her before Lucifer calls her back.

She'd just finished a final scrub when the water turned icy cold a heartbeat before she felt the summons. It didn't cross her mind to dress, instead letting the water dry off her skin as she ran to return. Someone else might find walking through Hell in the buff a worrisome thought, but nobody would dare touch her without permission, and if that was his plan, she would accept it as she had accepted hundreds of other humiliations and punishments.
Not even ten minutes had passed, and she had returned to the presence of the two archangels, awaiting further instructions.

Gabriel turns his head from his new location on his knees although still a good distance away from his brother to watch her approach.

no subject
Date: 2016-05-02 01:24 am (UTC)From:Even so, she kept sneaking quick glances at both archangels to see their reactions. It was possibly the only warning she might get before things went south on her.
no subject
Date: 2016-05-02 01:27 am (UTC)From:In other words, time to get started.
no subject
Date: 2016-05-02 01:37 am (UTC)From:She would help show Gabriel what he had given up on, seemed intent on throwing away over a pesky thing like being a demon.
no subject
Date: 2016-05-02 01:40 am (UTC)From:The thought of that turns Lucifer on more, resulting in Claudia getting to have the taste of precome to give her warning of what was coming in fairly short order.
no subject
Date: 2016-05-02 01:47 am (UTC)From:Her own needs and desires would always be secondary to Lucifer's, and that was how it should be. He would still take care of her, at least on some level. As long as she was useful, and she intended that to never change.

Date: 2016-05-02 01:55 am (UTC)From:no subject
Date: 2016-05-02 02:02 am (UTC)From:It was why she loved him, worshiped him. He could claim her in any way he wanted, and in front of anyone, and all she could think of was Lucifer. He was giving this to her, and not anyone else in this moment.
no subject
Date: 2016-05-02 02:07 am (UTC)From:Then he looks at Gabriel to make it clear he was addressing him as well. "I think it's time we move this elsewhere, don't you?"
no subject
Date: 2016-05-02 02:15 am (UTC)From:Then she looks at Gabriel, and the expression on his face makes her want to laugh. Yes, he was jealous, and yet he seemed to hate himself as much as either of them. Such a delicious mixture. If he were human, she would definitely be enjoying his conundrum, adding carefully calculated statements to push him in the desired direction. But this was Lucifer's show, and she was going to do her damnedest to learn from him.
no subject
Date: 2016-05-02 02:28 am (UTC)From:There's other furniture of course. Chairs, a couple of small decorative tables with statues for additional decoration along with a larger table. Also decorative, but also meant for use. Be it for things he needs to take a look at, or other things.
He gives Gabriel some time to take in the room before addressing Claudia. "You may want to take a seat, my dear. This will take a few minutes."
Time for the first part of her reward: allowing her to watch what he intends to do to his brother. Lucifer knows this should appeal to her hormones.
no subject
Date: 2016-05-02 03:27 am (UTC)From:There was a part of her that wanted to think him, but babbling like that would only annoy Lucifer, and she didn't want that. Gabriel seemed to be doing enough of that on his own, for all that she hadn't heard him speak since handing him over.
no subject
Date: 2016-05-02 03:39 am (UTC)From:"Try not to get yourself leashed again, hmm? I would rather leave it where it'll be out of the way," Lucifer says, tilting his brother's head back.
Gabriel's mouth tightens but he nods once before leaning forwards to take his brother into his mouth, tongue rubbing along the underside of the shaft as he slowly bobs his head and takes his brother in deeper. He's aware of Claudia watching but does his best to ignore her presence.
"There's a good boy," Lucifer murmurs, carding his fingers through his brother's hair. Time to praise his brother as needed to work his way past the chinks in his armor. He knows Gabriel's missed being told when he's done well, even if he'd never admit it.
no subject
Date: 2016-05-02 03:56 am (UTC)From:She also wondered why Gabriel was so disgusted by her no longer being human. As a demon she wouldn't have to grow old or die of anything short of a properly enchanted weapon. Still, she wanted to see this, reacting to it and wondering what it would be like if she were allowed to join them. One archangel was mindblowingly amazing, so what would two be like? Would she be able to survive, even with the gifts Lucifer had given her?
The thought makes her lick her lips, watching intently, trying to take everything in.
