"I like doing these things, and I don't want to stop."
Silence. Nothingness.
"I'm bonded to you, and what you are. That—that's how you first found me."
Lucifer. Lucifer is—Lucifer is—
"I don't know who I am, if I'm not you."
A ripple in the darkness.
"No consequences, no pain, no sorrow—I want that back. I want it back. I don't want to feel now what I didn't feel then."
A tug at Lucifer's consciousness.
"Where are you?" Nick's voice breaks. "Where are you?"
Lucifer opens his eyes.
"H-help me."
Something walks by—something Lucifer feels rather than sees. Footsteps echoing in the stillness. Lucifer twists and writhes until he takes shape, until he can stand. The Empty throbs around him, an ebb and flow of pure absence. Nonexistence.
Nick is sobbing now. Lucifer can feel it—a heavy thrum of desperation. An endless pulse of want.
"Come back."
He could do it. He could gather what's left of his power and use it to tear a hole in reality. To yank himself back to earth.
Or, he could go back to sleep.
"Lucifer, please."
Yeah, he thinks he'll do that. Earth is bullshit anyway. The Winchesters can have it.

Ha! Yup!
(When we first saw Nick go evil on his obsessive quest to find out who killed his family... I thought the big reveal would be that Nick killed them. Bit disappointed that wasn't the twist they went with. I love Pelligrino's performance, but I'm so over the long convoluted story arcs. I'm tired. I just want simple ghosts and monsters that are defeated at the end of each episode.)
