"Oh, golly. What a deal!" Aleister mocked with his most upbeat tone, unable to believe Lucifer was even trying this on him. Why did he think he was that stupid? Or did he know he'd reject it and he was just playing a game. "Here's the thing, the only one who could possibly benefit from this deal is you. You just want to have power, to get back on top and restart your stupid apocalypse. And once you've done that, you do away with the humans, the angels... the demons. Especially my kind."

Once human, now demon - they were just the lowest of the low to an archangel like Lucifer. "You think I'm dirt beneath your shoe. And I have a rule to never do business with people who can't wrap their head around mutual respect and keeping their word."

He shrugged his shoulders. "Sorry, father of lies, I'm not buying."
