( it's not surprising to elena that lucifer would think to make such a sacrifice.

wonderland once put them in a terrible circumstance, sending them both to hell. lucifer only had one coin, and he made sure it was elena's soul that was spared. if he did that for her, then she can only imagine the lengths he would go to for chloe. )

You don't sound like a lunatic. You sound like someone that's seeing things clearly now that the fog has lifted.

( after all, nothing chloe is saying sounds like new information to her. )

You're just finally seeing what the rest of us have for a while now.

[ For as selfish as he could be, Chloe would always argue that when push came to shove, Lucifer always put those he cared about before him. She had no doubt he would lay down his life for Elena in the same way he had Chloe, more times than she could really count at that point. It was part of what made him so frustrating and yet so special, at least to Chloe. ]

Has it really been that obvious to everyone else?

[interpersonal]

( someone else would probably soften the truth of it all by trying to protest to the contrary, but elena replies with a simple and deadpanned: )

Yes.

[ l m f a o but where's the lie?

Chloe snorts, shaking her head. ]

I'm worried though, you know? With the history we have and, let's face it, Lucifer isn't exactly the most reliable person on a good day, never mind the fact that he's never had an actual relationship before. After what I went through with my ex... I just want it to work out this time, you know?

[interpersonal]

( elena grins to match chloe's snort, but it isn't long before her expression is softening, and she is placing her hand on top of lucifer's. ) Of course I do. And that's how I know that it will work. ( so long as they both keep wanting it to work. so long as they keep choosing each other. )

Every relationship is its own language, separate from the rest. Lucifer isn't your ex; you're not the person you were when you married to Dan. And ... Lucifer is not a conventional man, which probably means you guys won't have a conventional relationship. But that's not a bad thing. You can find what works for you guys as you go along. Sometimes that's part of the adventure.

( she speaks from experience ok. )

[thevulnerability]

[ Elena's experience is part of the reason Chloe turns to her for guidance when it comes to Lucifer. She understands what it's like to love someone who isn't human and who hasn't exactly made the best choices in his life. She knows what it's like to be a mortal wrapped up in a world mortals shouldn't belong (even if she isn't mortal anymore, she knows). ]

I guess that's something I need to keep in mind. He isn't Dan. [ She cracks a smile again. ] He's way more narcissistic, but he does dress better.

What did it take? For you and Damon to get things to the point where they worked?
