Knock knock (knocking on heaven’s door)

Lucifer drops by heaven for a chat about boredom, shades, and mid-death crises. Audio-streamed scripture, crutched sheep, and divine sarcasm collide in this knock-knock cosmic comedy – where the punchlines are eternal, the prophets wear earbuds, and salvation comes with a laugh track. Expect metaphysical banter, holy plot twists, and a guest appearance by the Archangel of Ambivalence.

SATAN: Knock knock.
GOD: Who's there?
SATAN: Lucifer.
GOD: Lucifer who?
SATAN: Oh you are so funny. Lucifer the black sheep.
GOD: Hey! What brings you here?
SATAN: I'm bored.
GOD: How are you coping with the light?
SATAN: Shades. You like them.
GOD: Yeah. Very ooka long bang bang.
SATAN: Where's your son?
GOD: Out back I think. You want me to call him?
SATAN: No thanks. Just enquiring.
GOD: So why are you bored?
SATAN: I think I'm going through a mid-death crisis.
GOD: It happens to the best of us you know. Remember the ark?
SATAN: When the rains first came?
GOD: Off day.
SATAN: You get that.
GOD: Amen.
SATAN: Whatever.
GOD: So what have you been up to?
SATAN: Oh the usual; roaming the earth and going back and forth on it.
GOD: Have you been reading the book?
SATAN: Audio streaming.
GOD: Sounds like fun.
SATAN: That's not the term I'd use, believe me.
GOD: Believe you? Now there's a challenge.
SATAN: I'll ignore that. So what are you up to?
GOD: The usual. Creating stuff.
SATAN: Sounds boring.
GOD: You should try it.
SATAN: I'd rather be crutching sheep.
GOD: So I've heard. And how is that working for you?
SATAN: Better the devil you know.

Lucifer walked back down the golden steps, adjusting his shades against the blinding celestial glare. Creation continued out back, completely indifferent to the brief, bureaucratic chat that had just transpired. It was just another Tuesday in the pantheon of eternity, a quick check-in between old rivals, wrapped in a joke, buried in a riddle, and completely unresolved.
