Summary: You didn't care that just moments ago, you were ready to kill him.

Note: Written for the "Lucifer Drabble" writing challenge on LJ community - spnland; prompt - 'Write one drabble of exactly 100 words featuring or about Lucifer'

Note 2: Because the drabbles for the challenge had to be only 100 words, I kept having to change things up - therefore, here are the "original, earlier" versions of the drabble that was entered into the challenge.

You didn't care that just moments ago, you were ready to kill him. You didn't care about the fact that for the past several millenia, ever since you had obeyed your Father's orders and imprisoned him down here so long ago, you had put all your energies into forgetting about him - into trying to think of him as nothing more than a monster.

Not as the little brother that he had always been.

You didn't care about that while the two of you fell, Hell reaching out to welcome its leader home. You didn't care how much you'd thought you'd always hate him as you just held him close, wrapping your wings around his form and sending your Grace over to him.

You didn't care about past betrayals or hurts as you sought to protect - rather than harm - him.

You just held your little brother close, glad - for once - to finally have your family together again.
