Lucifer sees the message almost instantly, and after a few seconds, he starts typing out a reply.
Lucifer: DID YOU ACTUALLY GET A CAT? I WAS JUST JOKING WHEN I TOLD YOU TO DO THAT BUT IDEC I STAN
Castiel chuckles. He probably should have given some context with that.
Castiel: No, I'm watching the neighbors' cat while they're away. She's falling asleep and I can't leave anymore.
Lucifer: I never thought I'd live to see the day where my brother was kidnapped by a cat but here we are.
Lucifer: Can I adopt him?
Lucifer: Her?
Lucifer: Them?
Lucifer: It?
Lucifer: What are gender pronouns?
Lucifer: What is gender?
Castiel stares at his phone uncomprehendingly. Is his brother having an existential crisis?
Castiel: ... her name is Princess. She's a girl.
Lucifer: But can I adopt her?
Castiel: She's already been adopted, idiot. That's why she's my neighbor.
Lucifer: Why can't she be adopted twice? You were.
Castiel: ?
Lucifer: ...
Castiel: Is there something you want to tell me?
Lucifer: Nah, I'm 200% messing with you.
Lucifer: I meant 100% and I just can't type but I'm also 200% messing with you.
Lucifer: You're not adopted.
Lucifer: I think.
Lucifer: I'm pretty sure I remember mom being pregnant.
Lucifer: I just asked Michael and he says you're not adopted.
Castiel: ...
Lucifer: :)
Castiel: You're weird.
Lucifer: :3)
Lucifer: Look, my smile has a mustache!
Castiel: I'm slightly concerned about your mental health.
Lucifer: Eh, I've survived 27 years, and I'll survive at least another 50.
Lucifer: I hope.
Lucifer: At least another 42.
Castiel: Why 42?
Lucifer: ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Castiel: ... I can't believe you just made a 69 joke.
Lucifer: AYYYY YOU GOT IT! GOLD STAR FOR YOU!
Castiel: ... okay, I'm leaving now.
Lucifer: *sniffle*
Lucifer: Okay :,;
Lucifer: Oh crap I mean
Lucifer: (,:
Lucifer: WTF I CANT KEYBOARD
Lucifer: :'(
Lucifer: Perfect.
Lucifer: K bai
