[ That was a hell of a mouthful. As for Spring cleaning, Lucifer thought he'd heard Maze muttering something about it in reference to getting rid of certain waitstaff that weren't up to her standards. But as he tended to leave those details to Maze, since he rarely let it concern him, the saying went over his head.

The pun was appreciated though. But sticking to the heart of the matter for the time being. ]

Ah. [ He exclaimed at her last statement. ] Well there's the rub. Now that they've found out, it would appear that it's damaged their trust in you. At least with Vladis.

Having never needed medical treatment ... ever, I'm speaking academically here, but I believe a certain trust is necessary between physician and patient?

[cherrywood]

Never ever ever? That's quite a feat! How did you manage that, dear?

There is indeed, but it's part of a physician's responsibility to know what's best for the patient, and part of the patient's responsibility to trust the diagnosis.

Immortality. [ He answered with ease. ] Until recently at least.

Hmmm, don't know that I follow that line of reasoning and by follow I mean believe in. I've got a bit of a history in disagreeing with the whole idea of a 'plan' and unquestioning faith in said unknown 'plan'. To vulnerable to manipulation and gross misinterpretation.

[cherrywood]

Immortality can be tricky business! Both of the former Emperors were immortal, and it didn't do them entirely that much good.

So you would have done things differently?

[retiredfromhell]

[ Whatever his thoughts were on immortality, for the time being, Lucifer kept them to himself. ]

From my observations lying, even with good intentions, usually comes back to bite you in the arse.

I hope you don't come to regret this one.
