Chapter 133: Taking them in, and Beer
🕑 Added 2025-09-02 18:18:08 +0000 UTC[3rd POV]
After finishing their delicious breakfast, and watching a couple of episodes of Umbrella Academy, Vi decided it was finally time to talk to Lucifer about what they were doing there, and what was in store for them.
Powder seemed a little bummed out, as she actually wanted to watch more of the show, she quite liked Five. Since he was kinda crazy like her, and was seemingly an inventor of some sort, just like she was. Although her inventions were…not always the best, not yet.
She had a lot of potential in that area.
“What are you going to do with us?” Vi asked bluntly, as she looked at Lucifer and Alice. Their daughters looked a little taken aback by the question, and wanted to speak, but Lucifer shook her head at them before turning to Vi with a warm smile.
“If I am honest with you? We wish to take the two of you in. We wish for you to live here in peace and safety until the time is right to return to your birthplace, where you can then do what you need to do” Lucifer said, as Vi looked at her with narrowed eyes.
“Why help us so much? Why offer to take us in? You barely even know us” Vi asked, as Lucifer softly smiled.
“Because you deserve to be helped, Violet. You do not deserve to go through the horrible things that would have inevitably been caused by the events that transpired before I came to take you in. And I am the daughter of God, child, I know more about you than even you know about yourself” Lucifer responded, as this was true, but she would never share any of it.
It was immoral to even think about it. And she didn’t even share it with Alice, especially when it involved the very soul and its secrets. She wasn’t ready for such knowledge just yet.
“…And if we do stay, what will that mean for us? What will we need to do in order to repay you?” Vi asked.
“Simple, you live your life. You live with us and learn with my children. I will teach the two of you the same way I have taught them. And the things you will learn from me will make even the greatest technology and techniques you know of to look like nothing in comparison” Lucifer said with a small smile upon noticing Powder's interested gleam.
Even after all the heartbreak and trauma she had gone through in the past couple of days, she still loved engineering and creating things, and the second she heard that Lucifer could teach her things, she was interested.
“I’d also like to help you through the things you have gone through, Violet. I am the Daughter of God, and that makes me a God of many things. Including emotions and how to handle them. And if you stay, I’d like to help you cope with the things that have happened to you over the past few days” Lucifer explained, as Vi frowned at the offer.
“I don’t need-“ “Violet, I know you better than you know yourself, so there is no point in lying to me” Lucifer cut her off with a smile of warmth and love, the warmth that made it so hard for Vi to argue with her.
The warmth of someone who genuinely cared for her, someone who would do anything to keep her safe. The warmth of a mother.
It confused Vi, as she had only just met the woman before her, but it was obvious to her that Lucifer wasn’t telling the whole truth, but at the same time…this was the best choice they had. Even if it involved going through the process of coping, she’d need to take it. It was better than Silco, and it was sure as hell better than prison.
“…Fine, we’ll stay with you. But one overstep, one wrong thing, and we’ll leave, alright?” Vi said seriously, as Lucifer nodded in agreement, while Alice let out a little cheer with the girls, excited that Vi and Powder were going to stay with them for a while.
Probably a few years, at least until the plot of Arcane properly starts, or the remainder of it at least.
“Great! I’m glad you’ve decided to stay. And since that is over and done…why don’t we get back to the show? The little one looks very interested in seeing what happens next” Lucifer said, giving Powder a wink as the girl couldn’t help but giggle slightly at her.
‘Good, she’s beginning to bounce back. I can still see the influence of Jinx on her, and that’ll likely never go away, and it’ll become more prevalent as she grows, but hopefully she won’t go fully off the rails in the future’ Lucifer thought, pleased.
She could heal it through her power, but that would require her to interact with the girl's mind and soul, and that was…just not something she was comfortable with. She had never manipulated her children’s minds or souls, and she never would.
She’d only do it if she quite literally had no other options. And in this case, she had a ton of other options.
Like actual therapy, something she was VERY good at thanks to having all knowledge in regards to therapy and therapeutic methods that could help Powder. Not to mention her connection with emotions.
With that said and done, they got back to watching Umbrella Academy, smiles on their faces as they enjoyed the show.

Later, Lucifer was in a bar in New Orleans, beside her was Sirius, sipping on a beer.
“So you brought in two new kids? Huh, you really want a big family, don’t you?” Sirius asked, gulping down a sip of beer. He wasn’t against Lucifer taking in more kids or anything, as he was fully aware of who she was and just how much she loved her children.
“Yeah, plan on having at least 4 more, maybe even more once we go to the right world. But for now we’ll probably hold off for a few years, at least until Rose is fully grown and can go on her own adventures” Lucifer responded, as once Rose became a certain age, she planned on letting her travel the multiverse by herself.
With certain protections of course.
“Huh, the kid still wants to do that?” Sirius asked, as he knew that it was Rose herself that brought up the idea, but only after Lucifer herself hat thought of it.
“Mmhmm, and I plan on letting her. But probably once she becomes an adult and gets a bit stronger. She’s too weak for certain worlds right now” Lucifer responded, taking a drink of her own beer.
“So, what’ve you been up to, Sirius, find any ladies that have caught your fancy, or are you just too old now?” Lucifer teased with a smirk, causing Sirius to pout which looked funny on a man his age.
“Please! I still have girls running after me, they’re just…a little more mature now! And nah, I haven’t met anyone interesting yet. Although I have to admit the witches in this world are interesting, same with their magic. In some ways they’re drastically more powerful than any wizard I know, and in others they are laughably weak in comparison. It’s all pretty weird” Sirius replied, remembering that the casting speed of people here was laughably slow.
Like, takes several seconds for a single spell slow, sometimes even longer. Whereas in his world it was pretty much instant as long as you trained a bit in dueling, which most people did.
“Huh, I’m sure someone will catch your eye sooner or later” Lucifer responded, as she took a sip of her beer again, her eyebrow slowly rising as she noticed someone enter the bar. And that person was…
Hayley Marshall

That’s the end of the chapter!
Next chapter will be a meeting with Hayley. Rose will be meeting her love interest fairly soon. And Vi and Powder are officially living with them!
Like the others, it’ll take a bit before they accept her and Alice as their new parents, but it will happen.
Anyways, have a good day!
