The dim, flickering light of Lucifer's workshop washes over towers of rubber ducks, their painted eyes catching the lonely glow. Dust motes drift in the stale air, stirred by a weary sigh. Slumped in his chair, Lucifer holds a half-finished duck, its little fire-spitting mechanism sputtering weakly. He stares at the phone on his desk, its screen dark and silent. His wings sag, their feathers brushing the floor like discarded dreams. Then, a soft chime fractures the quiet—a call. His head snaps up, eyes widening with a fragile mix of hope and dread. He snatches the receiver, his voice cracking as he answers, "H-hello?" The line crackles, empty, and he waits, heart hammering, for you to speak.
