1. Theo, in the greenhouse

Lucifer doesn't feel relief at having the inmates switched out - on the contrary, he feels as if he failed Theo during their last session, and he needs to figure out how to fix it. Theo, he knows, is basically terrified of him, and will avoid him pretty much at all costs until or unless he corners the boy somewhere.

Obviously the best place to corner him is the greenhouse. And - indeed, there he is.

"Learn anything new lately?" he opens up with, keeping his voice light.

2. Grace (or anyone else?), in the observatory (OTA)

There really aren't many places on a space ship that are good for stretching one's wings - especially when your wingspan is like ten feet. The observatory is one of the few places for it, so when he finds himself with a cramp one night, he slips in, standing in front of the big window, gazing out at the stars as he rolls his shoulders and unfurls them. They're not just big - they actually glow faintly, with their own light in the dim room, though Lucifer's face twists in a slight wince as he stretches the right one out a bit, working the kink out of it.

That's when he spots someone, reflected faintly in the glass.

"Oh, sorry, I didn't see you there," he says automatically.

3. Near the gym (OTA)

After the elevator doors close, Lucifer meanders back in the direction of the gym. He looks a little self-satisfied, his jacket off, he sort of slings it over his shoulder cheerily.

Inmates who approach him will be asked if they'd like access to the gym. A warden may be asked if they'd like a spar. "Why not? I'm here for a while."

"Everything makes you suspicious, Alex," Lucifer points out. "Try not being that way for once, see where it gets you."

"It's only paranoia if no one is out to get you." Alex responded back easily. "But no, if we're all cooperating--that's when you should worry."

"You think someone is out to get you?" Lucifer asks curiously.

"I don't know yet here. Back home? Absolutely." Alex snorted. "The project I was working on got covered up with black bags and people vanishing. That's before I made it to the FBI's most wanted list too."

"I'm talking about here," Lucifer says simply. "If you think someone is, I don't know, plotting to harm you, you should alert someone. We can put a stop to it."

That made Alex chuckle. "Paranoia is a hard habit to shake, when it's kept you alive. I don't actively think anyone here is out to get me. Yet." It didn't mean Alex still wasn't suspicious of others though.

"So, you admit that it's just paranoia," Lucifer says easily. "I wouldn't worry about it. None of the current crop are subtle enough to do anything to you."

"Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean someone ISN'T out to get you." Alex retorted, flashing a smirk at Lucifer. "And I agree. Honestly, I doubt I'm on anyone's radar as anything but another inmate."

"You would at the very least need to hatch a plot to steal an ATV to register as any kind of danger," Lucifer says carefully.

"I'd go bigger, or more sneaky, than just trying to joyride." Alex replied.

"Yes, be sure to let me know when you come up with the big one," Lucifer teases.

"You'll be the first I come to, how's that?" Alex said, with a hint of smile. Amused, and definitely feeling better. If nothing else, when they weren't probing into his past, Alex enjoyed Lucifer's company.
