[Physically, Theo's starting to do a bit better, with withdrawal out of the way and magic no longer corroding his body. But he sure isn't sleeping well still. Nightmares. So many nightmares.

He's also now confused, unsure of what to do with this information. As Lucifer can probably guess, Theo is not a person used to compliments.]


... I just like the color. I'm not wearing it to impress anyone, I just needed something to wear.

[The other problem right now is how worn down Theo has gotten from the daily therapy sessions. Have to save that fighting energy for refusing to talk later! But it's evident as the days go on his emotionally exhausted he is. The anger isn't fading, but some of the energy behind it is.

Theo looks away, debating if he wants to answer even such a mundane question. As usual, he does, but he doesn't.]


... red. Just darker colors.

[He might be totally refusing to talk about it, but it's evident in his manner how the sessions are affecting him as the month goes on. Unfortunately no closer to opening up, as shown in his body language, even now. He holds his new clothes bundle to his chest now, arms wrapped around it like it was going to protect him.

He also really likes black and red, too, though.]


I guess. Though I almost don't even see the point of having this here. Get dressed up to go sit in the observatory, great.

[It was definitely for himself, but he did want to look nice. That's a little too embarrassing to admit to anyone, especially his warden, though.

He looks at Lucifer now, curious.]


What are you here to get? Some kinda weirdo hand puppet or something? What could wardens even want from this thing.

[He's convinced himself that wardens have all the creature comforts they could ever want behind all those locked doors.]

[One man's hand puppet is another man's Mysteriosus Bwumph.]

You trust this thing with something like that? Won't it just make it out of foam or whatever?

Oh. [He hadn't considered that idea. But how do you develop a photo on foam? Lucifer might see some wheels turning in that head. He would never do it, though. To many guilty memories attached seeing anything directly from his life at home.]

I guess it'd give ya something better to look at than these bland walls all the time. I just figured wardens probably got everything they wanted, anyway, tickets or not.

[He scoffs at that idea.] Maybe? You agreed to be here. This is your job. Exactly how many inmates agreed to be here, exactly?

[Alex, huh. That explains some things he's said to Theo.

The comments about the wardens being here under duress gets a pointed glare though.]


You could all leave at any time you wanted. Right? Just quit. Get sent home. Not get your-- [He really doesn't have any idea about windfalls, or what the other wardens have been offered.] heaps of money or whatever it is they're giving out to do this. The line is pretty fucking clear to me.

[He looks away, glowering at nothing.] We are prisoners. You are not, especially not you in particular.

[That earns Lucifer one sarcastic teen eyeroll. That's his cue to leave and try this on back in his room.]

I don't care why a warden's taken this job. They're still a warden.
