I, Lucifer

'Michael's just laid down that infmaous accustaion of pride, right?' I sprang up from the bed and let the city's lights catch me on Gunn's better side.'And I'm Like..."Pride?" It's a whisper at this stage, a Pacino whisper. "Pride?" But this is one of those whisper-builds-to-shout scenes. "Is it pride to want a place of your own? Is it pride to want to be independent?" Little by little louder, right? "Is it pride to want to do something in the universe?" Louder. "Is it pride to want to be somebody?" Louder still: "Is it pride to want to live with dignity?" Then full fucking throttle: "Is it pride to get sick of KISSING AN OLD MAN'S ASS?'"

Lucifer describing the moment he rebelled against God. Epic.
