Who: Daniel Jackson & Lucifer
What: Awkward fun meeting
Where: Gym
When: Evening
Rating: ?
Status: Incomplete

Daniel had realised recently that he had gotten so involved with his work that he hadn't been going to the gym that often. Jack would have had his head if he had known. While back home and even here his job was primarily linguistics and research, working for the Stargate program showed that you never knew when you might need to step up and actually fight for your life and the lives of others with you. While he hadn't had to yet while on the Enterprise it wouldn't do to be out of shape if the time ever came, especially as not everyone here was trained in combat. Sure, the Enterprise had it's own Security teams but they couldn't be everywhere all the time. Plus, training also meant keeping fit and healthy which had it's own benefits in the long run too.

So really, there was no reason he shouldn't be taking the time to exercise.

So that was why Daniel found himself in the gym that evening trying to get a decent workout in before he wound up for the night. Everything was different to what he was used too but at the same time there was enough similarities that he wasn't too out of his depth for which he was grateful for. Having stripped off his shirt, Daniel found himself at a weight station. Having started on a lighter weight than he might have otherwise just to get back into the swing of things, he had despite that been going long enough to develop a light sheen of sweat across his torso.

Daniel raised an eye out his name. "A pleasure to meet you. Are you named for the devil or are you the devil if you don't mind me asking?" adding the last three words after a slight second, thinking he might as well not come across as rude. IF he was named for the Devil he wondered what type of parents did he have? If he was the devil... He wouldn't be surprised. He had met the Egyptian 'Gods' and Merlin before so why not the Devil too.

	"Oh, I am most certainly the devil," Lucifer confirmed. "Good to know that wherever you've come from was civilized enough for you to have heard of me. But enough small talk. Don't let me keep you from your workout," he offered, once again giving the shirtless man an appreciative glance, before heading toward a treadmill himself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Daniel honestly wasn't at all surprised by the revelation that he was actually the Devil. Given this place he supposed anything was possible. "Well I've met aliens who pretended to be the Egyptian Gods among other things so it's not like it's a long shot that you're real too. I have to say you're a lot less red and horny though," he said with a small smirk on his face.

	"Oh well then, good for you," Lucifer said, finding that to be a bit odd but less so than he would have before he first wound up on the Enterprise. "Sorry to disappoint. Never had horns, but I've always been horny. And unfortunately someone stole my devil face from me while forcing me to have my wings back." It was a sore spot, still.

"Not something you encounter often?" he asked curiously.

"Oh um," Daniel said blushing as he realised what he had said. Then just shrugged. It was probably too obvious and said a lot but it was good for him to take it in stride. "I guess the girls love it. How does one still your face? That must have been painful." It can't have been when he came here, he'd seen someone who had blue skin so he doubted it was a result of that.

"Men, women, I've never been too particular," Lucifer replied easily. "And clearly I still have my face, handsome as it is. I just don't have my devil face any longer which is hard to explain so I won't bother."

He set his water bottle in place and then turned on the treadmill, immediately breaking into a brisk run. "And no, the first aliens I'd ever encountered were aboard this ship. Before then it was all celestial beings and humanity."

	"Alright but at some point I would love to learn more about your world. Learning about new cultures and I suppose yours is just that, is always fascinating," Daniel said with a smile and a shrug. "Are Angels really like how we imagine them?" he asked curiously. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"That depends," Lucifer said. "How is it that you imagine them? On clouds with harps? That's a negative. With a flaming sword? I kind of destroyed that... Little kids with cherub cheeks and tufted wings, hell no. Recycled dead humans? Again, no." He'd heard hundreds of depictions of angels over the years. Most were terribly inaccurate.

	"I honestly don't know. I know that they're often depicted with wings and halos but honestly I don't think that makes sense. Maybe wings but even then I think that might be pushing it. It's not something I've truly thought of before. Very pretty though then again that might be me buying into the stereotype which isn't good," Daniel mused. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lucifer stopped running, and instead chose to ride the treadmill to the end before jumping off. Then he unfurled his wings to answer Daniel's question. "No on the halos though. You were right there." And then he folded his wings back up and jumped back on the treadmill, as if nothing unusual had happened. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Daniel thankfully hadn't picked up the weights again when Lucifer jumped off and unfolded his wings or there might have been a serious accident. "Oh wow," he breathed out completely amazed by the wings that Lucifer had unfolded. They were large and beautiful and he wasn't sure if they were what he thought they would be but... They were real wings. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Yes," Lucifer said. "That's how people tend to react to seeing them. But trust me when I say the splendor grows old, particularly after you've cut them off for the tenth or so time..." He shrugged. "Anyway, what is that you do, exactly that had you crossing paths with aliens impersonating Egyptian deities?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I can see why," he replied still in awe. "I worked as a civilian consultant to the Military. It was a program that took us to various other planets not only to research but also to protect Earth in anyway possible," he explained the Stargate program in a very simple way.

	"Well, that sounds mildly interesting," Lucifer said. "I was a civilian consultant to the Los Angeles Police Department. After I retired as Lord of Hell, of course." As if it was obvious that the devil could retire and then become a crime solver. Increasing the speed on the treadmill, he didn't even break a sweat as he added, "Oh, and I owned a nightclub. Lux."

	"It was for sure especially when we weren't running for our lives. I imagine working for the police was interesting?" he asked. "I bet that was a killer nightclub," Daniel said with a slight smirk. (Reply to this) (Parent)
