Octavia was pretty sure Lucifer wasn't ready to be part of a 'the three of us'.

But she didn't have a reason not to go with what he was actually proposing. "Oh," she said. "Well, okay."

[betterthanaplan]

"I mean, that's what I was thinking," Duke said. "It doesn't have to be what you're thinking. We can talk about this."

[okteiviakom]

"I just think... he didn't ask for anything like that," Octavia pointed out gently, after a little pause.

[betterthanaplan]

"Do you think he's be mad if he knew we were waiting until he was around?"

It was an honest question. Duke had no idea.

[okteiviakom]

Octavia's expression turned faintly amused, even if it was with a wry tilt. "He likes it when he can claim he got me laid, so..."

She'd heard that today, no less. And not for the first time.

[betterthanaplan]

Duke laughed. “So we should have sex as a tributes to him?”

[okteiviakom]

Some of the wry fell away. "I don't think he'd hate it," Octavia told him. "Especially if we talk about the things we might want to do with him later."

It'd be like he was there!

[betterthanaplan]

“Okay, I can totally get behind this idea,” Duke said, leaning in to kiss her again. “You start.”

[okteiviakom]

So Octavia did. The details were sparse but... effective, and in large part obviously inspired by their weekend as teens.

And then she kissed him like she didn't intend to stop any time soon.

(All the pent-up energy from Lucifer's visit had to go somewhere.)
