He knew. I think he thought it was his only option. Lucifer and Michael were pitted against one another, and they were to have their battle on Earth. Regardless of who won, billions would die. But to exist on the earthly plane, angels need a vessel, and they need permission.

Dean said no in that timeline, but Sam said yes. They'd separated and gone their own way, so I'm not entirely sure of the circumstances of Sam's "yes". Lucifer is deception personified, so there's no telling what he told Sam in order to gain permission.

Sam does say yes in my timeline as well, but there was a plan in place. It almost didn't work, but in the end, Lucifer was placed back in his cage.

And yes, the devil-devil.

Could he have been offered a golden fiddle?

Sorry, I know this is your friend. I probably shouldn't make jokes, but it's hard for me to fully wrap my head around the idea of the devil taking over a body.

LOLLLLL

[ what ]

It's a strange concept to most.

I also don't understand that reference.

Really? You must be from a different version of Earth than I am if you've never heard the song: The Devil Went Down to Georgia

[nuntius]

..Why would he go to Georgia?

[ baffling! ]

[alwayskayaking]

From the lyrics of the song he was looking for a soul to steal.

[nuntius]

[ … tim is doing this on purpose. ]

Oh. I see.

[alwayskayaking]

Although I should probably question that song more. In my world it probably is based on a true story.

[nuntius]

I wouldn't be surprised if it was in mine, either. There are several legends built into music, apparently.

[alwayskayaking]

Until proven otherwise, I'm going to just enjoy the song and assume it' not a literal story about the devil.
