Summary
There’s something wrong with Will.
It started three weeks ago, almost four. Will had woken from some sort of nightmare and, instead of seeking comfort in Mike the way he usually would, he’d rolled out a sleeping bag from the closet and chosen to sleep on the floor.
No one believes Mike, except for Joyce. But even she doesn’t understand the full extent to which something is wrong with Will.
Mike understands, though. Mike has been paying attention.

Summary
"Christ, Max, I hope your communication skills improve before Michael is my age. I don't think the latest parenting books really advocate for giving a teenager the silent treatment when there's a learning opportunity at hand. Or is it safe to assume that you wouldn't treat your own kid this way? I understand, you know. A lot of my clients are like that. The politicians? They'd never touch a real kid, especially not their own. It's just not worth the scandal, not when there's always a bought and paid-for whore available, no questions asked."
That was it. That was the tipping point. Max's head snaps up, and he glares at Ash with a vitriol Ash has never seen on him before. He takes a half step closer to Ash, leaning in, and Ash instinctively braces himself for the incoming hands on his body.
"This, Ash! This is my problem!" Max screams. His voice doesn't quite break, but it's got the desperate, unsteady pitch that comes on near a vocal passaggio. "Have I really not made that clear to you by now?"
Max wasn't ready to parent a teenager, not yet. Sometimes he makes mistakes, and sometimes he's even forgiven.

Summary
Lucifer is very aware that certain aspects of personal grooming tend to go out the window for him on bad days (or weeks—or months). He does his best to keep up with it—he really does! It's just that the more visible things like his hair and clothes get priority, and by the times he realizes what a disaster his living space has become, or even worse, his wings...
Things were easier when he was living alone and there was nobody else around to notice things like the powder down that he scatters all over the place when he hasn't preened himself properly in too long. At least, they were until someone reaches out a helping hand.

Summary
Charlie’s face falls then, that smile slowly fading away, and Lucifer suddenly feels as if his chest was far too tight.
”It’s nothing for you to worry about,” he immediately tries to reassure, his hands holding her by the elbows, “I’m fine, duckie.”
”I just don’t want you to hide from me anymore.”
Lucifer’s mouth goes dry, his fingers flexing nervously, “Who’s hiding? I’m right here, aren’t I? I’m fine, I promise.”
She huffs softly, her expression brightening just slightly. “If you’re sure. But I won’t be far if you change your mind, okay?”
”Of course.” He smiles and hopes she doesn’t notice the way it strains at the edge of his lips.
(Or, angel wings require a lot of grooming. Especially when you have six of them.)

Summary
"And he’s tired, oh so very tired, of feeling like shit all the time. Of fighting only to fail time and time again. Tired of being so depressed he doesn't even have the energy to leave his bed, except for official duties, most days. No, he is only burdening those around him."
After years of fighting crippling depression, Lucifer decides that enough is enough. Blind to his worth, the ex-angel attempts suicide. Unfortunately for him, his daughter doesn't want to part with him just yet.

Summary
They’re dressed up as father and son, and it’s killing Ash a little.
Max is everything he wishes Jim had been.
But it’s a stupid thought. Pointless, and hopeless. No one would ever want to think of Ash as their son. Not really. It’s awful enough that he’s making Max play this stupid game. Ash feels bad for the guy, really.
Max signs the paperwork for the condo under the name Eddie Winston, and Ash longs to be someone else. Someone other than Ash Lynx or Aslan Jade Callenreese. Christopher Winston, maybe. Just maybe.
Or Aslan “Ash” Glenreed.
God. Fuck. What’s wrong with him?
Five times Max calls Ash family, and one time Ash believes him.

Summary
Aki looked at the ceiling, his formerly beautiful, plain, bare ceiling— now adorned with drawings of penisies and swear words, and cursed Makima, not for the last time in his life. “We’re going on a field trip.” He looked at the girl with disgust in his eyes, “Power, put on some pants.”
“You humans and your need for ‘pants’! Disgusting, restricting, slave driving—“
Denji yanked the devil’s collar and dragged her into their room as she yelled.
_________
Denji has a weird day.

Of her life is a great cargo, and some of it heavy:
I wish her a lucky passage.

It is always a matter, my darling,
Of life or death, as I had forgotten. I wish
What I wished you before, but harder." -Richard Wilbur, 'The Writer'-
