keeping him in line {JOKE}

THIS IS A JOKE LOVLIES

"No! I need those back! Now!" His voice cracked and he could hear how broken and pathetic he sounded. His arms shook as they tried to keep him steady- where was his staff? He'd probably get his strength if he was holding it- it was a few feet behind him, next to his chair. As soon as he shakily started to crawl over to it, he was yanked off of the floor, and put on Lucifer's hip, held firmly. Alastor, with all the fight left in him, started to kick furiously, pushing at the angel's shoulders "Let me go! Let ME GO! LET ME-" Lucifer readjusted him to place a few harsh smacks on the demons behind, which silenced him immediately as he stared at the man in shock.

"You killed a sin." Lucifer had Alastors full attention, his eyes slightly filled with tears. To Lucifer- seeing him so fragile looking pulled at his heart. Suppression pills were illegal because of how dangerous they were- the other probably hasn't regressed in a long long time. "You killed a sin" he reiterated "How the fuck did you do it." Alastor twitched in his arms, looking up with him with the biggest doe eyes he could muster. "Don't know" He mumbled. Lucifer bit the inside of his cheek, there was no way he could have this conversation with him now. He would offer to take the other to a caregiver, but Lucifer doubted the man even had that- otherwise he wouldn't be taking the suppressants. He absentmindedly ran his fingers though the deers hair, humming softly as he tried to think of what to do. His original plan was to come up here, beat the shit out of the demon to understand how he did it, and then make sure he never had the chance to have that much power again. All of Hell was in disarray, and looking at him to fix it. He walked over to the desk where Alastor does the broadcasts, and cut out the pre recorded screams. Creepy.

Now things could be easier, or painfully complicated. Alastor was inches away from fully dropping, and seemed to be trying everything in his power to stop it from happening. He noticed the deers staff on the floor, and knowing how fond the man is of his accessory, tucked it under his arm. Before he could react, Alastor lunged forward, grabbing the staff by its top, and suddenly flashing out of his arms. Disappeared. Lucifer looked down at his empty arms, twitching in anger. Alright, hide and seek it is then.

Alastor had traveled farther than he was expecting himself to. He wasn't sure of his location quite yet, he just knew it was a dark and damp alley. He felt himself return to normal- as long as he had the staff his power was at full force, and it scared off any "little" feelings. He couldn't believe the king just- his face became a deep red as he thought of how the man treated him. As if he were nothing but a bratty baby! But he'd show him! He'd just have to get more medication before anything else. The risk of being separated without his staff was too high. He stumbled out of the alley, relieved as soon as he knew where he was. The cannibal district. He was more than safe here, and it had the exact shop he needed.

After a small pit stop to see Rosie (to deliver her sin meat, of course) He made his way down the small shops and boutiques, before stopping in front of an antique shop. He made his way in, not bothering with niceties. "I need the backroom shop. Urgent." The older man behind the counter nodded, able to recognize Alastor as he led him to the back. "Your usual today sir?"

"No." Alastor looked around the illegal hidden room, filled with different suppressants for all kinds of people. "L Suppressants, but the strongest you have." The man tsked, shaking his head, "I don't recommend it, the side affect-" "Did I fucking ask you about the side effects? Fetch. Them. Now". Alastors body grew as his second form came out, growling and snarling at the cannibal until he quickly moved.

He snatched it out of the man's hand as soon as it was offered, ripping open the bottle right then and throwing down two pills. His body returned to normal, and he instantly felt that urge in the back of his head disappear. He yanked his wallet out of his pocket and threw the appropriate amount of money to the man. "I'll be back in two weeks. Have the refill ready." He used his powers to melt himself into the shadows as he traveled away, powers full force once again.
