[ It takes her a minute to respond back as she gathers her thoughts. As reactive as she is feeling about this, and as angry as she is to find that Lucifer's mother had manipulated this entire situation... She's still his mother. The last they spoke about it, he seemed terrified of her. Things clearly had changed, somehow.
Chloe could deal with her own concerns about it later. Right now she gets the impression that Lucifer needs her more than she needs him. ]
Neither is going to help you with your rather large overwhelmed problem, but if you insist.
[Long version it is!]
Mom decided that She wanted to return to Heaven and essentially demanded that I wield Azrael's flaming sword to start a war and cut our way back in. While originally that seemed like a fine idea, considering the recent revelations regarding Dad, I ultimately decided against it, and instead suggested I return her to Hell so that she could rule it in my place. She grew very angry, hurt Linda quite severely, and then proceeded to threaten an entire pier of civilians.
In the end, I talked Her down from war with Dad by cutting open a tear into the Void and convincing Her to go through it and create Her own universe.
You were there, actually, but Amenadiel had stopped time and so you didn't notice.]
[ She imagines if it had been worse, Lucifer would have mentioned it. The truth is, Linda is one of Chloe's few friends. She's devastated that something like this could happen to her. ]
I'm not going to come home that drunk.
I know we didn't exactly start off on the right foot when you got back but, I'd like to spend some time with you.
[ Chloe has no doubt about that; she knows how much Lucifer cares about Linda as a friend far more than a therapist. Linda is the only one who knows the truth at home now as it is, and Chloe can't imagine how she handles being in the middle of all of that.
[ For as hard as she's taking all of this, he hasn't turned his back on her and she's going to help him deal with the emotional fallout of everything that happened back home as well as she can. At least, if he lets her, considering Lucifer and emotions don't exactly go hand in hand. ]
That doesn't narrow it down at all but don't worry, I won't be doing ANYTHING you would do.

[ After their fight, it seems important to point that out. ]
I'm just overwhelmed.

Also Amenadiel can stop time but we're gonna put a pin in that. ]
I'm going to be home kind of late. Freya and I are getting really drunk.
[ There's a minute before she sends another text. ]
I'm sorry, Lucifer. I know that couldn't be easy for you, letting your mom go like that.
[ She might despise the Goddess for what she did, but she loves Lucifer enough to swallow her anger.
Wait. One more. ]
Is Linda okay??
no subject
[He'll live vicariously through her.]
I hated her for thousands of years. We both needed to keep moving forward.
[aka, this was for the best.]
Maze got her to a hospital in time, yes. I was visiting her right before I was knocked unconscious, actually.

[ Sex, Lucifer. She wants to have sex with you. ]

I guess I'll simply have to close early tonight, then.

Probably better than Chloe would. ]
I'll see you in a little bit. Love you.

[Not probably the conversation to have if she's drunk, but whatever floats her boat.]
Not narrowing it down was the point, but do try to have fun.

[ Fun. LOL. ]
