WHO: Beckett, Castle and Lucifer
WHEN: 226404.04
WHERE: Out in Yorktown
SUMMARY: Shopping
WARNINGS: Doubtful?

Lucifer was having a fantastic day. He was off the spaceship for one, then they had given him spending money and after all that, he'd found an unregistered card with 1000 credits on it, which he quickly figured out how to register.

It was time to buy some new clothes. The replicator had supplemented his wardrobe but it wasn't the same as being properly fitted. So armed with his newfound wealth, he found himself inside a shop that actually appeared to sell suitable attire. Even better, he recognized two of the shoppers.

"Beckett!" Lucifer greeted Kate cheerfully, before turning to Castle and extending his hand. "And we've not been properly introduced, even if you had no qualms about shooting me repeatedly. I'm Lucifer Morningstar. I've heard a lot about you."

And just like that, Lucifer had inserted himself into Beckett and Castle's day out. He couldn't be considered a third-wheel if he felt absolutely no awkwardness about it.

"Woah, hey!" He said, trying to defend himself against Kate's psychological assessment of his writing process. The only problem was that she was right and therefore he couldn't. "It was better for the progression of the series." That was some bullshit she had heard before and was completely stupid, but that was the story he was sticking to for now.

He watched Kate's hand move over her chest and he knew what she was doing. It wasn't the place or time to mention it though, so he didn't.

"Ok, look, I love Firefly, but if I'm going to live in the future I really want it to be like where I get to wear a cape and jack boots and shoot lasers at people... like the original Star Trek. Also why isn't Bateman here? Lots of MCU, not a lot of DC."

Castle felt safe talking about this in front of Kate and Lucifer, since neither of them were from a fictional world.

Something in Kate's expression had changed when she discussed Nikki and Rook, and things being different in the books, but he didn't press the issue because this was neither the time nor the place and it was probably none of his business even if that had never stopped him before.

"Right, well my goal is to make you look good, but if you'd like to wear a cape I think I saw some for sale a few stores down," Lucifer mentioned to Castle. "Entirely up to you. In the meantime I need shoes, pants, more shirts, and all of the other essentials that I've missed considering you arrive here with almost nothing."

He shrugged at Castle's question, not really understanding how people like Leia and Luke and Han Solo were real, and he'd not given it much thought. Even if he totally would sleep with Leia still, even now that she was much older than in the original movies.

Kate's chuckle was full and bright, the smile she gave to Castle enormous. "You're such a little boy sometimes," she told him fondly, though she had also wondered why there weren't any DC characters. Marvel was nice and all, but you couldn't top the classics like Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman.

"Hey, he looks good regardless," Kate said to Lucifer, draping the clothing she planned to buy over one arm before taking a seat on one of the small couches that had been stationed near the fitting room. She assumed they were going to be there for a while. "He needs all of that, too. But Castle is.....he dresses a bit more casual than you most of the time. Jeans, t-shirts and that sort of thing."

"I don't want to be the only dude in a cape," he said. That would be decidedly not cool. "Yeah, my off work wardrobe usually consists of T-shirts and jeans.. but not dad jeans, please." Lucifer did dress very well. Castle didn't think he could manage that all the time, especially not if he technically wasn't working anymore. A few nice pairs of jeans and some T-shirts would be good.

Lucifer shrugged his shoulders, looking at Castle as though he was almost a lost cause. "Very well," he mused, glancing over to the more casual section of the store. "If you're going to dress casually, you might as well do it right. And I'd never put someone in dad jeans. That's insulting."

Jeans were tricky, especially when shopping for someone who wasn't him, and he wouldn't shop for jeans for himself. But based purely on sight, Lucifer was fairly certain he'd found three pairs of jeans that would fit right and look good. "Alright, try those on," he mentioned. "And you're still getting the other shirts I picked out for you and the blazer."

At this point he was all but ignoring Kate, having made it his mission to see to it that Castle had proper clothes.

"I wouldn't let you buy dad jeans," Kate said with a sigh as she got to her feet, reaching out to grab Rick's hand and tug him along behind Lucifer as he headed towards the casual section. They had never been shopping with him before, but she knew the signs of someone who was going to throw themselves into the task and not stop until it was done.

It was honestly a lot like herself when faced with a murder or Castle when a deadline was looming for his book and he was behind on chapters. Each person had their own thing that made them tick and it looked like Lucifer's was shopping.

"Should I leave the two of you alone....?" she asked, eyes flicking between Lucifer as he sorted through racks and her husband.

	Castle turned to Kate and shrugged. "He seems to be enjoying himself so much that I don't really want to stop him," he said to her quietly. He looked at the pile that Lucifer was making and most of the clothing did not look bad. V-neck T-shirts were questionable though. As long as they didn't make him look like a douche.

	"Oh you don't need to leave us alone," Lucifer said innocently to Kate. "We can just go into one of the dressing rooms." He handed Castle another few shirts and then nudged him suggestively. "Right now," he said. "Off you go. You have a lot to try on there." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Uh, we?" Castle gave Lucifer a weird look, then glanced back at Kate. "Uh, I'm good with trying on by myself... thanks..." Why was Lucifer looking at him like that? Then again, he supposed he shouldn't be surprised that even the devil found him ruggedly handsome. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"If you're asking, sure," Lucifer replied, but he couldn't help but laugh at the look Castle was giving him. "Bloody hell, go try on your clothes. Don't keep us waiting here in anticipation." He smirked, and glanced over at Kate, who appeared amused. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Definitely not asking," he confirmed. It was interesting. Castle knew how to flirt with women, but men didn't flirt with him very often so he was at a bit of a loss with that. After another awkward look between Kate and Lucifer, Castle turned and went off to the dressing room. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Babe, you look like a confused puppy." Kate said with a short laugh, halfway tempted to follow Castle into the fitting room both to clear up his confusion and to mess with him a little bite more. Not to mention it'd actually by fun for her, too.

But Kate stayed in the store, extending her armful of clothes for Lucifer to hold while she went on a clothing hunt of her own for her husband. Casual dresser or not, she knew Rick could wear the hell out of a suit and while they were here Kate was going to find him a good one.
