tryingitallA whirlwind romance is a wonderful thing. For Balthazar, there are multiple dimensions of whirlwind. Lucifer and his passion is the main focus, but being accepted and treated as a friend by so many of the angels of his court--not to mention his children--has been almost as compelling. It's all very beautiful, and so much of what Balthazar always hungered for in his own family, that it feels like the proverbial dream come true.
Which is why part of him is waiting for the other shoe to drop, for some sort of catch to show up (as if being aware that Lucifer is going to have a final show-down with God some day wasn't enough of a catch? but Balthazar is able to compartmentalize). Perhaps Moloch sensed this and found the gap in the angel's armor he was looking for, or perhaps it's Balthazar's own uncertainty catching up to him.
Either way, they need to discuss practicalities sooner or later, and not merely live in the joy of mutual emotions.
Lucifer will find his angel on the terrace of the apartment, with a cup of espresso and, incongruously, a bag of gummi worms, nibbling one of the latter slowly. He lights up when Lucifer arrives, smiling, eyes crinkling at the corners, and holds out the bag.
"The red and yellow-ish ones are the best," he tells him.
