Fiction:
Happy Birthday To Me
Self pity and loneliness. Brimstone, Lucifer/Zeke
"Happy birthday to me..."
Alone, with a little cone-shaped hat on his head and a single muffin on the table with a single candle stuck in it.
"Happy birthday to me..."
No real friends, no family to speak of. Not even a real birthday, but he chose this day randomly to celebrate.
"Happy birthday, dear Satan..."
The door slammed open.
"You didn't tell me it was your birthday!"
The devil sighed. Maybe one friend.
"Happy birthday to me." He blew on the candle.
Ezekiel came up behind him and hugged his shoulders, dropping a single chaste kiss on the top of his head.
"Happy birthday." He whispered.
