[Lucifer takes that personally, as he does so many things in their family. But he had promised Castiel to get it back. The idea that Castiel doesn't even care....
He can't understand why it bothers him. It should be a relief, shouldn't it? He can stop figuring out ways to return it. He can get back to work on more personal goals.
It doesn't occur to him that it hurts because this was his way of asking forgiveness. He hasn't even realized he needs to be forgiven. It takes him a moment to find his tongue again, to trip over the words and put his slightly hurt befuddlement aside.]
