Lucifer gets arrested by Chloe

A few minutes later...


"So... Now that everyone's here, O guess its time for me to tell you what comes next." King begins.


"So what're we watching this time? Dark and depressing? Romantic comedy? Depressing?" Roman asks sarcastically. Making King glare at him, shutting him up.


"We'll be watching a short scene of Saber's prodigal son trying to flirt." King responds sliding up the crystal in place.


"Wait. What? I didn't agree to this!" Saber weakly protests.


"Unfortunately your holiness, I just slotted the recording in." King responds sarcastically at his companion.


"Insolent fuck..." Saber mutters darkly just enough for King to hear.


"What's this gotta do for any of us? Unless..." Winter trails off. Leaving everyone in suspense.


"Oh, no. Nothing like that, just a bit of shits and giggles before Saber throws you all into dark and depression next time." King chuckles while watching the screen come to life.


"Aren't you that chick from that film?"


"Hmm? What's this, what film?" Roman asks looking at Ruby with interest. Making Ruby avert eye contact and focus.


"Used to be an actress or something right?" The other guy continues.


"Right." Ruby nods trying not to show emotions.


"Wait. Roman's your son!?" Mercury exclaims while looking back at Saber then at Roman.


"And what's with Ruby being a former actress?" Tai questions, looking at the screen.


"Yes. And also the part with former actress Ruby? You'll just have to continue watching." King responds.


"I forget what its called..." The guy says trying to remember where he saw Ruby. Meanwhile Roman looks at Ruby remembering something,


"Of course! Hot Tub High School! That's where I know you from!" He says, making Ruby nod in agreement.


"Hot Tub High School?" Ruby asks innocently, making King laugh out loud at her innocence while Saber glares at him.


"Careful Torchwick, Red looks like she's ready to kill you." Emerald laughs.


"Must be pretty famous if this squirt managed to retire and still be remembered." Qrow chuckles at his niece.


"Let's just stick to my questions, shall we?" Ruby looks at Roman in annoyance.


Ignoring her Roman turns back excitedly turns to look back at the other two and blurts out.


"She's the one with the famous nude scene! Coming out of the hot tub, it was like a complete fast-times rip off!"


Everyone in the villains corner plus King bursted out laughing except for Cinder and Salem.


"Really, Roman?" Cinder deadpans at the master thief.


"Well, Torchwick it was nice knowing you." Emerald says in-between laughter pointing at a raging Taiyang.


"Ruby, young lady! You are forbidden from ever acting again! Blah Blah Blah..." Tai rants to her daughter.


"Can't be that bad... Atleast she wasn't the producer/writer, eh?" Yang shudders remembering the Little Red Riding Hood play they put up.


"She was like the new Phoibe Kate." Roman continues to brag.


"Thanks, I appreciate that." Ruby says sarcastically.


"That was quite a nude scene." Roman finishes looking her up and down.


"Ewww Ewww Ewwww. Get away from me!" Ruby throws popcorn at Roman in disgust.


"Oww! Did it seriously just register in you what we we're all talking about?" Roman responds dodging the barrage of popcorn attacking him.


"Yeah. So what?" Ruby pouts, chucking another bucket of popcorn at him.


"I have far too many bullets in this thing for you to still be talking" Ruby warns gripping her gun, before turning to the other person in the room,


"You we need to have a conversation right now."


"That's a waste of time detective. I've just threatened  his life he's not our guy, I would have said. Trust me." Roman says stoping her.


"You did what?" Ruby looks at him like an idiot.


"Did you seriously confess to attempted murder? To a cop?" Mercury looked at Roman like he was stupid.


"I've seen stupid. But this. This takes the cake..." Cinder snickers.


"Are you sure he's not adopted? I mean, he's kinda an idiot. And as far as I know, criminals don't accidentally confess" Ironwood looked with disbelieving eyes at Saber and the Roman onscreen.


"His siblings asked that all the time too..." Saber facepalms with secondhand embarrassment.


"Isn't that illegal?" The suspect asked Ruby.


"Uhh. Little bit, yeah. You stay put." Ruby told him before turning to Roman. Then she quickly cuffs Roman and drags him out,


"You. You're coming with me."


"Figures. Gets fucking arrested, cause he gets caught threatening people." Mercury snickers at Roman.


"Ruby following proper procedure? Is this a dream?" Weiss asks jokingly, causing Ruby to protest weakly.


"Hey! I can follow procedure too!" Ruby bites back.


"Like that one time we set the forest on fire? Or when we rode a nevermore? Or that time when you went and trashed a warehouse with Penny and Blake?" Weiss points out.


"In my defense half of that was your fault too. And the warehouse thing was also slightly your fault" Ruby defends herself.


"Wait you kids rode a nevermore in intiation!" Tai looked at them in shock, overprotective mode kicking in.


"Gotta admire their tenacity. But they'll never be the coolest team in Beacon yet." Qrow says grabbing another beer.


"Ooh. With pleasure..." Roman responds with a smile.


The pair walk out of the building with Ruby dragging Roman out.


"Atleast perhaps now, you'll listen to me. Although, I'm not quite sure why I'm being arrested." Roman admits.


"Cause your interfering with a police investigation, you've broken I can't count how many laws and you piss me off." Ruby goes on and on.


"Right. I can get out of this, you know?" Roman tells her confidently.


"Funny." She responds as Roman shows her the handcuffs.


"How'd you do that?" Ruby looks at him in surprise


"Yep. Still got it!" Roman brags.


"You wouldn't even need to remember if you didn't get caught in the first place dumbass." Emerald mocks him.


"Plus. Literally every criminal in this room can do that." Mercury adds snickering at Roman.


"Hmmph. Come on we're wasting time, we should be out there solving a homicide and punishing those responsible!" Roman reasons to the detective.


"We? Your insane! I'm taking you in get in the car." Ruby looks at him incredulously.


"Ah, the good ole you need me and I'm useful schtick. Works everytime." Roman laughs.


"Doesn't look like its working though?" Ruby looked at him like he was crazy.


"Trust me Red, it'll work. Soon" Roman said confidently.


"No! That's boring, not to mention pointless." Roman complains. Making Ruby turn back to him in annoyance.


"Come on I'll help you, it'll be fun."


"Is he seriously doing all this. For what? Fun?" Winter looked at Torchwick and then at his counterpart in disbelief.


"I suppose it would have been something I'd think of, if I wasn't the most wanted man in Vale..." Roman admits casually.


"Its not just for fun... All that time in hell, I suppose you just get accustomed to things soon enough..." Saber mumbles thinking a few things over.


"How could you possibly help me?" Ruby looked at him.


"I have a certain skill set. I can be very persuasive with people and tend to see things that others cannot." Roman replies with confidence.


"So can literally every competent criminal. But sure, you're special." Neo quips with her signboard.


"Gonna have to agree with ice cream girl here, Roman. That ain't special." Yang says reluctantly agreeing with Neo.


"You all might think that Blondie, but not every criminal can be charismatic and persuasive enough to get into the White Fang and then stealing an Atlesian Paladin." Roman points out.


"He's got a point, Yang. As much as I hate to admit it." Blake sighs.


"Well someone is getting fired for letting a Paladin on the loose." Qrow quips, looking at Ironwood.


"So you're psychic or something?" Ruby asked looking at him intrigued.


"No. I can't read people's minds I'm not Jedi. People just like to tell me things." Roman admits.


"Okay. I had my doubts but now you're just bullshitting." Ironwood says.


"He's not. I can assure you that..." King replies.


"I'll believe it when I see it. And right now I don't see anything." Ironwood replied politely.


'I wonder if he sees the mojo thing; if he'll believe its just metaphors or if he believes that this Roman's the actual devil.' King wonders to himself, smirking at Saber who returns it.


"Hmm. Just- Just tell you things, people just confess their sins just like that?" Ruby asks not buying the explanation.


"No not their sins, I've no power over people's sins. Actually get a bad rep for that." Roman says exasperated, causing Ruby to look at him slack jawed.


"I have the ability to draw out other people's forbidden desires. The more simpler the human the easier it is, the more complex the more challenging and exciting, really. But no. The actual sins, the sins are on you people." Roman smiles as he explains.


"He can do what!? But that's impossible!" Weiss looked at Saber in disbelief.


"I'm inclined to side with Ms. Schnee here. There is absolutely no way a human much less someone as ditzy as him could possibly be able to use let alone aquire such power." Ozpin says without a thought.


"Yes, for once I might agree with everyone in the room right now. It is quite possibly impossible for anyone to aquire such power. But I'm curious what did he mean by 'The actual sins are on you people'?" Salem speaks up.


"Have none of you literally pieced it together yet? This Roman isn't human... He is an angel and you all have literally been bantering and conversing with his mother an actual Goddess of Creation." King answers trying to hold in a laugh.


"An angel? But aren't those just myths? Expressions?" Jaune says being the first to recover from the initial shock.


"For as long as the creation of the multiverse, sure. But occasionally celestial beings do go down every once in awhile, but this is one of those times that actually meant something, for me atleast... After all it was around this time where I broke out hell itself." Saber explains with a stoic expression.


"I'm confused. How exactly does this other Roman use his power, especially one this powerful?" Ruby asked a bit curious.


"It just comes naturally for the most part from what we've observed. Mortals are just naturally drawn to them; be it desire, fear or divine auras. So they have eons of practice so you don't feel it as much, some never actually realize that they can draw mortals with their mere presence." Saber continues, albeit with a much softer tone. Most of the audience nod, finally recovering from the shock of the revelation and the apparent nature of their host.


"You said your a Goddess of Creation. And you've created dimensions before, but are the relics actually from the Brother Gods or are they from you?" Salem asked with caution.


"If I answered everything, for you. Where's the fun and free will in that?" Saber chuckles deflecting the question, to the disappointment of Salem.


"You people?" Ruby nods a bit offended and slightly amused.


"I got it. I got it, the name, the whole Lucifer thing. And desire is like your superpower." Ruby summarizes.


"Its more like a gift from God, really." Roman nods at her words. Sensing she doesn't believe him he looks her in the eyes,


"Okay, tell me, detective. What do you desire, more than anything in this life?" He asks seriously.


"This is it? This is your big trick?" She looked at him unamused. Then stares back at him before sighing,


"I guess, when I was a little girl I used to always wanted to be a cop like my daddy. So that- that one day I could help people and be taken seriously, when I say shut up and get in the damn car." Ruby says with finality, causing Roman to frown.


"I- honestly what did I expect, from Roman of all people..." Cinder frowned at the lack of...well anything.


"Nothing happened..." Ruby and so did everyone else looked at Saber.


"Right. That stupid technicality, okay. So basically this Ruby is immune to all of Roman's powers aside from tye more physical ones obviously... Because she's a goddamn miracle." Saber answers their questioning gazes.


"What do you mean by Ruby is a ehat did you call it? A miracle?" Summer asked  their host.


"It means Detective Ruby Rose was not supposed to exist. The only reason she exists is because he planned to put her in Roman's path, easily enough. In other words this other Ruby Rose was created for no other purpose than to cross paths with Roman and to become his lover." Saber sighed.


"What about me then?" Ruby looked at the Goddess.


"Ruby if I answered that question it would break you, so unfortunately I must refrain." Saber answers truthfully.


"That's a lot to take in..." Weiss lets out, making a few people nod agreement.


"You're not like a Jedi ot something are you?" Roman asked perplexed at her lack of reaction.


"Get. In the car." Ruby warns, reaching up to cuff him.


"Okay. Look look. I know something you don't know." Roman dodges, before revealing information.


"Really? What's that?" Ruby asks humoring him.


"Won't say unless you take me with you on this." Roman bargains. Making Ruby stop in her tracks.


"Desperate much." Emerald chuckles trying to steer away from the conversation a few moments ago.


"It must be very important to him if he's that desperate. Though being an angel, I don't see why he doesn't do it independent from Ruby?" Ironwood wonders aloud.


"Because. Have you not been listening? He wants it to be fun, and nothing is more fun than annoying a overly serious woman, whose name may or may not be Winter." Qrow answers the general sarcastically, causing daid Winter to sock him in the jaw.


"Well that's gotta hurt..." Summer tells Raven, pointing at her teammate clutching his jaw.


"What can I say? He's a drunk idiot, Summer." Raven rolls her eys.


"Please, come on I got two vile, didn't I?" Roman continues to insist.


"Why do you care about this so much? About Delilah" Ruby asks him seriously curious of his motivation.


"I must agree, I was too busy being guilt tripped for eons. Why did he care so much about those cases anyway?" Saber was the first to speak up.


"How do you not know? Aren't you like all-knowing and powerful?" Cinder challenges the woman.


"Because, unlike you. I've been busy being tortured in a hell loop, so forgive me if I don't know a lot of before I broke out." Saber responds dripping with sarcasm.


"You keep mentioning hell and torture. What is this hell anyway?" Ozpin asks.


"Right its basically your situation, Oz. Except instead of reincarnating into a different body you wake up and repeat your greatest most guilt inducing experience for all eternity. Let's watch one when we have the time, maybe." Saber answered nonchalantly.


"I just- I just do. That maybe if I hadn't meddled in her career, maybe she wouldn't have died." He admits.


"Okay. Okay, fine. But if this little clue thing of yours doesn't pan out. These are going back on, and they're going to stay there." Ruby threatens.


"Told ya, Red. Works everytime..." Roman brags.


"Okay. Fine, maybe it is kinda useful..." Ruby admits.


"Is that a promise?" Roman jokes, making Ruby smirk at him nodding.


••••••


"Well. That didn't turn out the way I expected..." King mused.


"Gee. What gave it away?" Saber snapped.


Ruby stands up and cheers her up,
"If its any consolation Saber, we thought it was awesome! Can we watch another one? Please!"


"Okay, fine. Since you've basically all been exposed to the multiverse and beyond anyway... Why stop there?" Saber chuckles pulling another crystal and handing it to King.


"In all fairness the nature of angels and gods, aren't new to me to an extent. And while its always been a mystery, so were your origins. I suppose we could learn something from your experiences in the past as well..." Ozpin suggests subtlety.


"Celestial101 is understanding hell. It's hard to explain, but Ms. Secretly a Powerful Goddess here has lived it and I just so happen to have the recording of Roman's as well. So how about it?" King offers, presenting a medium-sized red crystal.


"Meh. Why not? Then we can move on to more exciting matter." Saber answered.


"Man, I just hope. I don't get to watch Roman's horrible flirting next time." Ruby quips, sitting back down.


"Agreed"


"Naturally"


"Of course"


"For once, Ruby. Agreed"


A/N: I don't really have anything to say. Except that half the motivation to write the reacts here was absolutely just cause I obsessively wanted to justify an absurdly powerful OC by giving them a logical background i.e A goddess of creation. So that's basically it...
