"Has he?" Balthazar is slightly excited by the idea of bringing Lucifer something he's never seen before. "I haven't talked to Mammon much as of yet. I'll have to fix that."
But the topic at hand is both more important and more concerning. His wing curls a little closer around Thnisko, reassuring. "You take in everything that goes on around here, don't you? That seems to be the way of angels who listen more than they talk."
He squirms, inwardly, at the idea of confronting Lucifer, not because he fears his lover's wrath, but because he's never relished the idea of confrontation with other angels. Battle is different. It's not personal. Still, he doesn't struggle to accept the idea that it might be up to him to do whatever needs to be done here. There are disadvantages to the position he's settling into, but there are advantages, too, and the opportunity to soothe and calm the angels around him is a big one of them.
"Will you tell me what you think it is that's bothering him? I'll be discreet, if you like."
