This is Evangeline! Sorry, I'm a little busy right now, but leave a message and I'll get back to you as soon as I can!

you know what this is about

[splittingheadache]

[Honestly? No matter how his whole thing with Lucifer goes, he's still gotta tell Evangeline about it, of course.

... Except, well. All Evangeline's getting is that screenshot of Lucifer calling him "beautiful and trashy", but it's been underlined with hearts around it.

He feels like he doesn't need to explain a thing, surely she'll understand--]

beautiful

[abnormalizes]

I TOLD you he would be into you.

[splittingheadache]

That you did! And I should have believed you!
However, if I had, I don't believe I'd have an immortalized screenshot of the devil himself calling me trashy, either!

[Look at all those exclamation marks!! He's so excited!!!]

I do believe I'm going to have this stuck in my craw for the next several weeks. I'm going to give you permission in advance to tell me to shut up, of course!
But the devil, himself, called me "beautiful and trashy", how could I not be on cloud nine about such a thing!?

[abnormalizes]

You deserve it! I couldn't be happier for you, honeybug.

[splittingheadache]

I couldn't thank you any more if I tried, Ol Siaion. I'll be sure to keep you updated, if you'd like.
Photos too, perhaps? If he allows them?

I feel as though I need to repay you properly for this, as well. I'll think of something fittingly worth it, believe you me.

[abnormalizes]

Photos would be incredible, but just testimony is great too.

You don’t have to do anything special? I’m happy to help.

[splittingheadache]

Photos, then, should I manage them! I do hope he allows it, I'd love to have photos to look back on in the future.

But that said, I insist! I wouldn't have made such a move if not for the confidence you've given me, you know.
That, and I simply enjoy giving you things. You're fun to fluster with kindness, that way, and it's cute when you blush.

[abnormalizes]

I can't stop you, but I CAN get revenge if you give me something too huge.

[splittingheadache]

Oh, please. Unfortunately for you, that threat lacks fangs; I'm starting to enjoy your ideas of revenge.

Though hard for me to hear, it's nice to have someone willing to tell me they truly enjoy my company. Someone who feels it necessary to remind me that they appreciate me.
While I may not fully believe all of your words, it's been something that I'm learning to appreciate. I welcome your revenge wholeheartedly.

That, and I'm a sucker for gifts.

[abnormalizes]

I'll come up with something. I've made you a flustered mess before and I will again.

[splittingheadache]

Oh, is that what you want out of me? To see me reduced to a stammering mess for you?

[abnormalizes]

It's a good look on you.

[splittingheadache]

Well, I *was* beginning to wonder if you found my flustering attractive. I suppose that answers my question.

If I find a more surefire way to cause it without needing to stoop to degradation, I'll be sure to tell you right away.

[abnormalizes]

[This reply takes a while to come, as Evangeline figures some things out and puts the final touches on a transformation she hasn't taken out in public yet.

She attaches a selfie of her as a humanoid mantis. Still clothed, though she's guessing the crop top and tight shorts won't hurt the picture too much.]

1/2;

[splittingheadache]

[...

His own response takes a while. Like, a long while. Not even for any of the reasons you may be thinking -
Rather, he ends up having to just stare at what she's sent him.

For a solid half of an hour.

Just... the phone on the table in front of him, his hands on either side of it, staring at the picture like he's trying to make sense of ancient, eldritch writing.]

2/2;

[splittingheadache]

[... And then, finally, what she gets in response is a voice message.]

You're just going to send me a PHOTOGRAPH!?

[abnormalizes]

[Cripes that’s loud.]

You could’ve had plans with Lucy, I didn’t want to assume you were free?

[splittingheadache]

[Thankfully, his volume drops to something more normal, though he's still juuuust on the edge of shrieking.]

No!? I would have told you...!?! With my excitement over this development and my sheer inability to shut up, do you truly believe I would not have immediately told you if we had plans!?!

[abnormalizes]

That’s fair, it’s my bad.

So you want me to come over.

[Not really a question.]

[splittingheadache]

- Immediately, if you would.

[Said, of course, immediately.
And calmly.]

[abnormalizes]

[It takes a couple of minutes because she can’t fast travel indoors, but soon there’s a polite knock at his door.

There she is, in all her mantis glory.]

[splittingheadache]

[He opens the door and --
Gasps, wide-eyed, closing it again.

But, yes, okay - he opens the door again and moves to let her in.]

In. Please.
Or I'll end up taking you in the hall, and no one needs that.

[abnormalizes]

[In she goes!]

As flattering as that would be for me, I don’t want to get you in trouble.

[She steps closer to him and rests a claw carefully against his cheek.]

[splittingheadache]

Yes, thank you - I'd rather not chance losing my suite, and... whatever my newfound situationship with His Highness might be called.
He seemed to take exception to "sugar daddy", so I've yet to ask.

[And he is SO leaning right into her claws. Even reaching up to wrap his arms around her arm, holding it nice and snug.
So he can rub his cheek against her like a cat, of course.]

Oh, you've captured the exoskeleton perfectly... is this your Summer shapeshifting?
Or, perhaps, a use of animal transformations...?

[abnormalizes]

Mix of both. It was hard deciding how I wanted to do it exactly, but I’m pleased with the result.

[He gets his horn scritched by another claw while he does that.]
