Characters: Izanami and YOU!
Setting: The graveyard
Format: Starting in commentspam, but I will shift!
Summary: Izanami is a goddess of death. It's only natural she care for the graves that have appeared.
Warnings: Izanami is her own warning.

[A graveyard. Perhaps it's only natural she care for it. She can't serve as the goddess of Yomi here, but she can make sure the graves remain tended. So she's slowly making her rounds today, humming an old song as she dusts off graves and disposes of any dead and withered flowers brought up from the meadow floor. She's easily approachable, and may even seem like a ghost with her pale coloring! Do you dare approach?]

It does.

It is unfortunate, then, that the Shadows so rarely accomplish this.

[Lucifer thinks for a moment, then shrugs.]

It was certainly annoying killing him, I will admit.

[thousandcurses]

A shame that you did instead of listening.

[Izanami feels quite smug about this, because it means that you're far more human than you might like to admit. She is going to quite happily go back to her work now.]

As to your threat, Lucifer: what I do with my fog is my own business. It is hardly my fault you manifested a Shadow and then continued to deny it. That is your choice. I simply provide the tools that can grant one greater strength.

[firstofthefallen]

I suppose it is.

Merely keep the fact that I offered grace in mind should you choose to pursue it again.

[thousandcurses]

A threat is grace in the same vein that brutality is merciful. But next time, I will be kind enough to warn you and contain my fog to certain floors so you may continue to deny part of yourself.

[She has returned to her human form now, and is humming once more as she tends to graves.]

[firstofthefallen]

And in turn I will allow you to preserve your delusion that your actions benefits them and that you may play surrogate mother to them.

I'm glad we could reach an accord.
