"Indeed?!" the angel of war offered curiously. "I suppose demons could die at that. but for some already bored folks like you, would that not constitute an improvement of sorts," Castiel suggested with a hint of a smirk. Satisfied to see his demon friend horrified, the angel smiled even wider as Lucifer smugly explained himself to his subordinate.

"Oh no, dear boy, you have not fallen out of favor at this time. You have done your duty well, and will persist in your good work, I am sure. I am not ordering you to serve the angel in the least. I am merely not forbidding your cooperation with him. The rest is...up to you. If you need to help your friend who also happens to be an angel, so be it, I will not stop you, because I am aware of your friendship already, and my interests at times coincide with those of the angel. Then again, if you are feeling?reluctant to accept the angel's need of your company, you are more than free to refuse and return to where you came. The choice is yours," the Lord of Fire reassured, all the while sadly remembering innocent looking?cohorts of demons in the?past who were swayed by Abbadon's promise of easy prey and because of their taint could no longer be entrusted to make the right choice in the way the fox demon could be.

"Besides, it's not like you have anything better to do right now," Castiel interjected again. "You are not seriously considering going back to the faggots and guarding them from non existing danger, are you? Did you not mention being bored already, now a few more days of such occupation and your fate would be worse than death. Your mind would simply go mad, then numb, and you would become of no use to anyone, even yourself. Isn't it better to accept my leadership instead," the angel wondered with?an exaggerated?serious look those who knew him well would identify as mocking.
