Why would he expect this! He just did something nice! So what if Lucifer rarely dips into sentimentality! So what if his partner is reciprocal--more often then not!
He's just. Not accustomed to things. Coming back 'round to him in a positive light. Negative? Oh, that's burned into his true form's bones. Positivity is new. Very new.
(Unfortunately for Istredd, while Lucifer doesn't wear tight clothing on a normal basis, he does wear a lot of clothing. His two-tunic scenario being his usual, the under tunic having a suicide bomber's level of enchanted butterfly pins--thankfully the few that are attached to spells are defensive-based and require a spoken word for activation.
Lucifer has yet to go into offensive-based lightning and even then it wouldn't be attached to a pin.)
If he wants him. Well. There's the real joke. More than any devilish music Lucifer could recite.
But sometimes. Sometimes, Lucifer lives up to his name, his established-identity. He's slack against the bed, looking crookedly up at Istredd, and intones, "Please," with enough meaning that it rolls along the bond.
