Welcome to love, Alastor. It really does make you insane and clear-headed. You're catty, incorrigible, charming, deliciously chaotic, and a fellow showman. What's not to love??

Lucifer didn't think something like this would ever happen to him again. It would be a little time before it would truly sink in, but in this moment, his hand taken and the ring slipped on, all he could feel was a wonderment. A content. It was a warmth that spread from his old heart and out into his extremities, the tips of his wings.

Someone was... willing to take this step with him. With him, of all beings in Creation. It made his heart clench beneath his practiced countenance- a Deal was serious business- as he remained steady.

But the act was done. The Deal was made. Powers mingled, weaved into a sort of chain, and he felt that tug upon his very soul. Though there was always that burst of power that came with this sort of thing, Lucifer creased a brow and focused, and gave it a little hush.

Because he didn't want to make a mess of this piece of Alastor's world. Things would rattle upon shelves, but they would otherwise stay put.

...Strange, though. Lucifer felt... something. Something far outside, different from the countless Deals Alastor made. It was like the smallest touch against a live wire among a sea of glowing chains leading to so many poor souls throughout Hell, lending the Radio Demon power.

Something to puzzle over later.

For now, he took Alastor's newly-adorned hand with his own. As the other nestled against the nape of his neck, he eased in. Deal-sealing rarely involved kissing, of course, but fuck the rules. This one demanded one.
