---

Sinister has posed:
It's Easter Monday! Look at that, a fantastically christian holiday, borrowed from pagan gods and wrapped up in chocolate -- the club below is currently having a day where all the dancers and serving staff either have feather themes or fluffy bunny ears as part of their uniforms, but up here in the penthouse, the Master of the Domain has only just arrived home. How can one tell? Because the one he travelled with is still unpacking things acquired along the way.
"Eostre is always a lot more interesting in scandinavia, but I think perhaps the wickerwork bunnyrabbits were a bit of an odd purchase. It has wickerman written all over it, but they've got buck teeth and are staring at me..." Sinister informs this in a calm, droll tone as he holds an aforementioned pagan item in palm. Not many places do these kinds of things any more, but there are a couple of places where the Easter Bunny is not quite as he is everywhere else in the world. "I am going to leave you to decide where to put those... I'm making coffee." It sounds so very... domestic.

Lucifer has posed:
"Why am I the one deciding where these bunnies are going when you're the one who couldn't seem to leave them alone..." Lucifer chides gently while moving over to the bunnies and looking them over some. "We could secure them on the roof. They could act as some sort of wicker creature that keeps other animal types at bay..." He would say crows, but he happens to have a soft spot for crows and ravens for some weird reason.

"I once read somewhere that the Easter tradition of rabbits and eggs came to the states from Germany. I have to wonder the truth in that... cause no matter what the fact remains that - as you said - it was stolen from the pagans." He has no idea where the bunnies will be going permanately but for the moment and sake of putting them SOMEWHERE - he actually sets them on either side of the bar. For now. They won't stay there. "There's a reason why I don't decorate for many occassions..."

Sabrina Spellman has posed:
If Sabrina was there at that moment, she would have given a cute awwwww but she's not well not yet.. See, that's the moment a portal pops right up, blocking access to the kitchen for Sinister. While for him it might look like a normal portal for Lucifer, he would instantly sense a hell portal energy!

Is that not just the way Sabrina was doing the spring rituals with her coven to welcome the spring to help the energies of the world flow into the earth .. So that Pan can play his flute and all that fantastical stuff! Her aunt asked for some Afgan juniper she had forgotten at the house.

So, of course, Sabrina thought nothing of it. She'd pop out and grab it , Except she snapped her finger and cast the spell and well, she knew something was one because one, her demonic blood was rolling, and two well she was in a rather lavish penthouse " uhhh this isn't my house " . She looks down " how did I get in this outfit? "

Sinister has posed:
"Well, that's the reason I rather liked the idea of getting them -- Eostre, or Ostara, was the radiant one, she of the dawn, the one that heralded the fading of the darkness -- and her Hares, not rabbits... but well, that's ..." And then there is a thing. Familiar at least with the phenomenon, Sinister trails off -- "...were you expecting a visitor?" Pause and on account of corset wearing blonde young women materializing out of thin air, his right hand is raised, a halo of red energy surrounding it and his eyes are burning and utterly crimson from edge to edge.

"I've lost my train of thought..." is muttered.

Lucifer has posed:
Lucifer glances over at Sinister, listening to him tell the story of Eostre - which he was enjoying until the man trails off. "Visitor? Not that I know of.." Though he does walk back over towards the kitchen and when he spies the blonde woman in the corset type dress standing there looking confused he takes one light whiff of the air and then pauses. "...I don't know you...but your energy feels familiar... which is weird...why is that weird?" He finally also begins to step forward again and lifts a hand to rest on Sinister's shoulder. "Easy Nathaniel..."

Sabrina Spellman has posed:
Sabrina Spellman The moment she saw that glowing orb her thoughts of what was going on ran out the window.. she didn't care about her outfit. Just bringing her hands up and energy started to force magical powers to come together as she snapped her fingers and brought up a shield.

; She does frowns when Lucifer says she feels familiar " You do too," She frowns ' And that's really not good " Looking extra, not okay where she was confused before, now she's looking at Lucifer with a trace of fear and hatred .. "If you're related to my father.. I will tell you right now I will shove you so far back down you won't ever be able to get back out ".

Sinister has posed:
The hand upon his shoulder seems at least to ease the firey glow. Sinister's gaze returns to simply edge-to-edge red, the limn around his hand fading as he lowers it. And then? Then there's is another assessment. "Young madame, you're the one that manifested in our kitchen, dressed like you're heading to the most avant garde funeral this side of Hollywood... threatening people in their own kitchen is a little gauche, don't you think?" Again, calm, droll and upper class english, though not quite of the 'talking around a plum' quality of elocution. There is a sniff, then a pointed arching of the eyebrow, which would definitely do Spock proud.

"I am going to pretend like this is normal and if you wouldn't mind?" he makes a little sidelong wave, a dismissive gesture as he turns sideways to step around her, fearless of whatever might occur if she flung whatever she's holding there in mystical energy.... in order to set about putting the coffee on. It's a very orderly and neat proceedure and after a pause for assessment, with a glance to their visitor, he grinds enough beans for an extra cup. "You might have to humour us with whomsoever your not so illustrious relative is. Coffee will take a moment, you can't rush these things."

Lucifer has posed:
Lucifer raises a brow. "Related to your father? I don't have the slightest--" Then Lucifer pauses. There's a moment. Then he's laughing. A slight chuckle at first that soon turns into a roaring thing for a moment. "Oh this is glorious. Simply glorious..."

"First off. You wouldn't be able to fling me back to Hell with all the power you might possess... Your father is a *demon*... a lesser. And while demons may be gently related to me, it's only because I had to create them in the first place to stave off all the would be attacks by my actual celestial brothers and sisters. You, my dear, are biting off more than you can possibly chew. I am Lucifer Morningstar. I *can* escape Hell, and I *will* escape Hell whenever I damn well please and there is nothing and no one that can stop me."

Then he stops, having advanced a bit towards the woman and then he gives her one of the biggest grins. "Never met you, but you do remind me of him a bit. I believe they named you....Sabrina. Yes?"

Sabrina Spellman has posed:
She looks down at the dress " I have no idea how I got into this " She says honestly, looking down and snaps her fingers and twirling it changing the outfit into something far more normal " at least that didn't go sideways Going with her normal Red top.. black headband and green skirt to stockings.

She looks over at Lucifer and her eyebrows shoot up " Wait your .. oh crap " She blinks a little impressed then she nods "Yes that's my name Mr. Morningstar " She then frowns " Does that make you my grandfather or my uncle since my farther is a prince of hell ".

Sinister has posed:
Sinister looks over his shoulder as Lucifer begins to chuckle. The eyeing turns into his other eyebrow joining the first in the whole raising game, as it becomes full on gales of mirth. "He's a bit sensitive about that kind of thing, raw nerves..." he comments, pouring in filtered water into the resevoire an hitting 'on' on the machine. Happy gurgles soon ensue and he turns about to lean himself against the counter, arms loosely folding as he continues to assess and observe this ongoing.... reunion? Never-union? Family resemblance deja vu?

The peanut gallery comments: "I think it makes you part of the extended family. Pure demons are the lillim, which makes you more related to myself than it does him. I think? Did I get that right? But frankly that's precious; uncle Lucifer." He chuckles a couple of times himself.

Lucifer has posed:
Lucifer finally sobers up a little and raises a brow at the mention of 'prince of hell'. "Your father decided to take a trip above and you're the obvious result of that. He's no prince. In fact, he got himself in a realm of trouble after that little escapade of his. Though I suppose he could be taking care of other parts of Hell that belong to other deities..." There's a shrug then. "Anyway and aside, I suppose that makes me your..." Then he pauses and that gives the peanut gallery enough time to comment.

"Uncle Lucifer. I suppose that's about as familial as it will ever get. And given your entrance you were practicing some sort of spell that went a little funky, hence you showing up here because of signatures that it went looking for." He side steps the woman to walk into the kitchen and then leans against the counter next to Sinister. "So...ah...hi? I suppose. Not every day I meet someone who's related to me that's not immediately out to try and send me back to - quote unquote - where I truly belong."

Sabrina Spellman has posed:
Sabrina Spellman Blinks and cocks her head. She's a little confused but she accepts the uncle .. heck she moves over and gives a Hug " Nice to meet you, uncle " She says brightly before also giving Sinistera big hug " Nice to meet you both " Giving both of them a bright sunny smile.. then he says that stuff and she hmms " Oh that makes sense.. but I wanted to go back to my house and.. ' She sighs " I forgot that I moved out so it's not really my house " She rubs her forehead " Okay yeah.. I screwed up "

She gives a little bow, " Sorry I interrupted and came to your house. As for the other part, if you have the ability the leave" She points down, " Where ever you go is your home baring legal stuff like land ownership and stuff, like that ".

Sinister has posed:
"Oh, gosh, young woman coming in..." Sinister stiffens just a little at the hug, mostly because it was entirely unexpected. He gives a couple of pats back, a token to trying to figure out if he's /supposed/ to do that or not. "Well. Ahhhh... yes." Recombobulating himself, he places one arm on the counter /behind/ Lucifer, so that the devil is in the 'wing' of his arm, glancing sidelong to the Lord of Hell, out of the corner of his eye. He grins, oh-so-wry at the other man, then looks back with a much more at-ease sort of expression. "Doctor Essex," he offers, giving a gracious bow of the head.

"Indupitably, his home is wherever he makes it to be. Although as noted, there's a grand amount of argument regarding that fact. There have been some contratempts with family members." The coffee purcolator gurgles to a reasonable conclusion. "Can I get you something?"

Lucifer has posed:
"Well, legally this penthouse and the club below are mine. And I do pop back to Hell every now and again for...reasons." Which Lucifer is not going to get into at this point in time. Then, there's a hug. A very unexpected point of contact which he sort of returns. "My you're an unusually....peppy sort." Commenting this much before finding himself in Sinister's wing.

"You recently moved? So where are you staying then? You should set up some sort of signature piece or do a grounding ritual so things don't go tits up. You may not like where it could send you next." Cause sometimes Lucifer isn't here and the last thing he and Sinister need is a sudden appearance of Bright and Bubbly(tm) while they're in the midst of something...dangerous. Sinister's already offered up getting anything so he just sort of stands there a moment.

Sabrina Spellman has posed:
Sabrina Spellman Beams a smile " My aunts said the same thing so does salem," She says brightly " Umm, coffee or tea " she says " I stay away from the booze. I'm still coming to grips with my uhh demonic parts," she says honestly .. She nods. "That's a really good idea. I us just kinda came back to earth after getting out of a trap by my mother and father.. and I'm legal now, so I'm in university and all that. " She gives a big sigh " honestly, I have no idea what to do with myself ".

Sinister has posed:
Sinister leans in, as he's got Lucifer in his 'wing' and pecks the devil on the cheek, turning about to prepare three coffees. Two are irish, the third? Well, here's a little saucer with a couple of sugar cubes, a tiny jug of cream and stevia sweetner just in case. That is set on the kitchen counter within reach of Sabrina, so she can doctor it how she likes. The other cups literally levitate, one to each man.

"Given the nature of your existence, you might want to consider UC Sunnydale, to limelight with mystical gifts. But I guess it depends on how you like to butter your toast?"

He looks over at the chipper lass, then Lucifer and back. "By the by, so as we're clear, I don't belong in hell, either. Even if some might argue that case vigorously. I have too much work to do."

Lucifer has posed:
Lucifer raises a brow again. Though they quickly narrow just a bit as he plucks his coffee out of thin air and takes a slow sip of it. "What do you mean your mother and father trapped you? How did they trap you? And where? Also, are you telling me your father is still talking to your mother?" In other words, please tell Lucifer all the reasons why he should find Beelzebub and drag him BACK to Hell - because he's obviously escaped or something - and he can give the demon a more...permanant home.

"I'm with Sinister though. Sunnydale's a great place for a witch to live. And I'm being absolutely serious. All sorts of magic types live there, and the University would likely be just up your alley." This much at least offered. "And if you need help grounding yourself to a place...let me know. I could..." He pauses, considers. "Maybe help."

Sabrina Spellman has posed:
Sabrina Spellman Beams a gives another hug making sure not to spill the coffee before she grabs her own own " Thanks, I'd love some help.. that sounds like a good idea, I mean.. I wanna go to university and find myself somebody to fall in love with, girl or guy not picky on that side " . She nods " Okay, my uncles suggest Sunnydale. That's better than my aunt's suggestion .. I like it more, for sure " . She blows and sips her coffee

She looks up " Can they umm help with the whole hell finger issue I tend to get " She sighs " I mean I just got a handle on my magic, and this whole half-demon thing kinda throws a girl for a loop ".

Sinister has posed:
"Oh, hey, happening again!" This from Sinister, as once again, spontaneous huggage is occurring. "I'm sure you're quite welcome... ah... well, the help depends a bit on whether you answer him, before he loses his cool on your father and your mother, I think. He does rather like to keep a lid on bad behaviour and if you were just trapped, he has some choice words he really ought to say to them."

Then there's a realm of possibilities that he is entirely unfamiliar with. "Hell finger? Thing?" What, wait a second. "Uncles? Plural. Oh dear lord. I've been uncled."

Lucifer has posed:
Another random hug! Is Lucifer going to have to get used to that? It's very likely, and he sort of accepts this one, even if he's tugging on his clothing afterwards. "That's...putting it mildly. Choice words. It's more like I'll have very strong actions against them once I find out what they did.." He says this and then glances back to Sabrina.

"Also, what do you mean by hell finger?" He's never heard that before, but then, he's never had to deal with spawns of demons before either.

Sabrina Spellman has posed:
Sabrina Spellman Blinks "Aren't you two a couple.. you both reek of each other " She smirks "That makes you uncles," She says brightly before she sighs " Ah yeah, dad can't leave hell. I'm guessing because of you, so he used my mother to yank me into hell, He kept me there trying to get me to first marry him.. then work with him because he needs me to be able to get onto eath.. the whole half demon bridge thing. " she sighs " but some of his enemies actually got me out to sabotage him, it was long and sucked, but basically I got the spell he wanted to use to get out and used it to get myself not him out , Hell finger is my term for what happens I got to cast a spell, and it goes sideways or way stronger than I expected .. it started happening after the whole parents and trip to hell thing "

Sinister has posed:
Sinister is enlightened. In a way. "Oh, chaos theory," THAT he seems to understand, in its basic. And there's also a logic, which is relatively sound, on the whole Uncles thing. "Alright, point taken on the title..." sipping his coffee, the taller of the two 'englishmen' keeps a steady eye on Lucifer, to guage the reaction to that. Occasionally, he HAS been known to go postal on demons. Occasionally.

Lucifer has posed:
"I'm sure I can find something to help with the whole magic going awry thing... but it also might go better for you once you've gounded yourself at a new place." Lucifer speaks, but his tone now is more even, and those eyes - usually blue - seem to be sparking with a bit of hellfire. "Well, Sabrina, it was a pleasure meeting you.." In a sense, "and once you get settled...you call me...and either me or both of us will come help..." He grabs a pen and a notepad to jot down his number and gives it to her. "But I'm afraid we'll need you to get going for the evening. If you'd like, and have a place to stay, I can get my driver to take you home." Cause, yeah, he's got words...and more...to deal with the one downstairs.

Sabrina Spellman has posed:
Sabrina Spellman blinks " Right Okay sure oh my yeah right " She beams " I'm sorry I came to your place by mistake.. " She puts the cup down and stops " umm where on earth am I?" She ask softly " Cause you both sound british " it's a fair question cause she could be in england .. the places people speak english is limited but still very large on earth and she has no idea where she is .

Sinister has posed:
"You're in Melville, just outside of New York city -- Club Lux. The penthouse. You ended up going to the nearest... identifying signature?" Sinister looks at Luci for confirmation on that, but then notes the glow in the man's eyes. "Oh dear. Yes, tonight is going to leave you in a mood, I can tell." But, for all that that seemed like a wary thing to say, he's slowly grinning.

Oh, lets just say it's complicated.

"And if you don't have a local place to stay, mention doctor Essex at the hilton and /do/ enjoy the spa."

Lucifer has posed:
"As you can likely tell. We have connections. If you need a hotel room for a few days, we can cover it. If you have a place to go, that's fine too. And I can have my driver take you wherever you wish. Hell, even if you have a place to go, and just want to enjoy some wonderful ammenities, I'll get you the hotel room anyway." This much said. "But you cannot stay here, much as I would normally offer, I wouldn't want you around for what comes next."

Sabrina Spellman has posed:
Sabrina Spellman shakes her head " No no I've imposed enough.. i can get home now that I know where I am.. i'll just summon my broom " she walks to the balcony and snaps her finger " OH BROOM ' She says loudly " it might take them a moment to get here but I'll be out of your hair.. thanks for the offer.. Sorry I bothered you.. I'll call and txt okay uncle luci " She says brightly

Sinister has posed:
Sinister trails the young woman with his gaze. "Broom riding is a thing? Broom riding is a thing. Accio Broom... it seems..." murmured, the man won't press the matter. He lifts a hand to wave, but the gesture in the end turns into a click of fingers of his own. "Windows: Blackout..." which they do. Photoreactive glass for the win. Doesn't do for passing superheros to peer in on what Lucifer's likely to do tonight.

There might be questions, dontchaknow. But there will DEFINITELY be answers.
