"I suspect you've had very little reason to trust anyone your whole life," Lucifer says knowingly. He was in a similar situation, for a long time. It happens, when your family rejects you.

And, because he is always, always an honest Devil - and because building trust does require a certain amount of openness on the part of all parties involved, he answers honestly.

"I do have people back home. But I won't be able to see them again for a long time. So no, I have nowhere better to be. Navarch offered me the chance to help someone here, and I thought it was a good idea. An interesting challenge, and when I get back to my world and my patients, hopefully I'll be even better at helping them."

Go ahead and blast him with the fire of your cynicism, Greyjay. He can take it.
