And just as swiftly as it appeared, it's gone again - perhaps startled back into hiding by the elevator gliding to a stop. Out of habit, Jamie glances toward the doors as they slide open, and when he looks back to Luci again, he's struck by his own temerity and ducks his head again, submissively.

"Sorry! Sorry. Wasn't mad at you, or anything. Just - " He tries to collect himself by stepping out of the elevator, and manages to meet Luci's eye again, sans scary look. "You can count on us. All of you guys. We'll do our part." He looks about to say something else, but then presses his lips together into a tight smile and nods.

Luci laughs as she exits the elevator with Jamie. "I guess you all have your reputation to uphold, but I'll give you my unsolicited opinion: never fucking apologize for your expressions or how you feel. In some cases, that's the only real thing we have in this line of work."

She puts her hands in her pockets and looks at him, amused. "What would you say to a flashmob performance? You think I could count on you guys for that?"

Jamie considers that bit of advice, turns it around in his head and tucks it away for safekeeping, offering a cautious bob of his head. When she brings up the flashmob, he brightens, a slow smile spreading across his face as he considers the possibilities.

He really wants to make some kind of witty pun - "Flash is in our name", or something along those lines - but he can't really think of anything clever and the last thing he needs right now is to look like a huge dork in front of Lucifer. Well, more of a huge dork, anyway, considering where they'd just met. So instead he just nods, much more assuredly this time.

"I'd have to check with the other guys, but it sounds like a great idea to me. I think they'll wanna go for it." And if they don't, he'll sadly shove them until they do.
