    Summary

    He rolled his eyes for extra emphasis. "Pfff! Oh please, baby duck. It takes waaaay more than a little tumble to hurt your old man! I'm stronger than I look."

    "You're not just saying that?"

    He pressed his forehead against Amiel's. "Promise I'm not, sweetie. I'd never lie to you."

    Except that he had. And he would again, if need be. To protect his son. Keep him safe. And keep him away from himself, and the ever-growing pile labeled "Lucifer's issues" that was accumulating in the back of his mind. But there was no reason to tell Amiel that. If one of them had to have their memory of this moment soured by guilt, let it be Lucifer.

    *****

    This is my take on the "Charlie Has a Brother" AU idea, while also being a series rewrite/expansion, and a deep dive into the messed-up, complex psychology of Hell's Royal Family.

    Buckle up buttercups, because the Morningstars are NOT okay.
