"I'm... I'm not...!" Ash responded.

"I'M NOT!" he yelled at her.

"Mom, I can't control it!" he exclaimed.

"The rune just wants to break out! And... and I hear a voice!" he went on.

"A whisper telling me that it's meant to come out! It's who I am!" he continued.

"But I don't want the rune to activate! It keeps trying to on its own!" he exclaimed further.

"Mom, I can't stop it!"

Rowena was silent for a moment before sighing and just increasing the strength of her own run beneath him, spreading across the yard. She made sure it didn't go farther, though.

"Well, you can't overpower mine yet." She commented before taking a seat in front of him.

"We have some time." She then said. "Talk to me. Tell me what's going on, as best you can."

"And give me your hands. Let's see if I can help you focus the mana at all."

Ash almost seemed scared of the idea of her touching his hands, as the earlier warning about not letting anyone touch him echoed through his mind... but he then realised it had been a VERY long time since his mother touched him that wasn't holding his hand or outright hugging him. Her hand had been nowhere near his chest or stomach for a very long while.

So he then took a deep breath, held it for a moment, exhaled, and slowly offered his hands.

"What's going on? I wish I knew." he said.

"But there's a weird handprint on me that I can't see. Not anymore, anyway... and Ilias at the Unit has one, too." he continued.

"Hazel saw them. And Ilias is acting all weird, like a stereotypical gorgon, and this is happening to me." he went on.

"She thinks they're connected."

". . . wait, what?" Rowena asked.

"that... that's weird." She commented before sighing as he laid his hands on hers.

"All right, forget about that for the moment. We need to get you to focus on the rune, and actualyl control it." She stated simply.

Ash just nodded.

"Right." he said.

"Got it." he said further.

Rowena could easily tell he was scared. She'd not seen him THIS scared in a very long time, and it was... a bit concerning. But she needed to concentrate on helping him. He needed to try and control this, somehow.

---

The two of them approached the Unit building, a very familiar male and female... and the male was NOT looking happy.

"I can't believe this." he muttered.

"My son bedding down with a succubus." he grumbled further. "And while he's involved with someone!" he added.

"It's disgraceful." he growled.

"Yuri, chill." The woman said with a sigh.

"You really think that he did it by choice? Also, from what I heard, Angela was caught up in it as well." She said simply as she opened the door for him to enter before her.

"Hey Jake." She said as she followed in.

"we're here to speak with Zeke."

Jake looked at the duo, and sighed as his tongue darted out briefly.

"Cool." he said, buzzing them in.

"He's in the med wing." he told them.

"Same with Angela, if you're wondering." he continued.

"Thank you." Yuri replied, a hint of impatience in his tone.

"....something tells me I wouldn't want to be Zeke right now." Jake commented.

"Something tells me that Yuri will be a good boy if he wants to not be locked out of the house for the next week." was all Aimee said with a sharp look to the man she was with.

"And thank you, Jake." She added before they headed off, making their way to the medwing, a location they were rather well aware of.

"I do hope that they are all right, overall."

Yuri was silent for a moment, before sighing.

"...I do, too." he said.

"Angela, specifically." he said further.

"Being influenced by a succubus is... well, it's not pleasant in the long run. You get one hell of a 'hangover'." he told her.

"Also, it was supposedly Roxanna, which is weirder still." he commented.

"From what I know, she keeps that side of her in check quite well."

"Zeke should be all right from that, due to your genetics." She said with a sigh.

"But Angela... ohhh, something tells me that she's not going to be feeling the best for a bit." She added with a sigh.

"However, we should be able to find out quickly, I think." She then added.

"Indeed." Yuri replied, as they arrived at the med wing.

"Hmmm." he muttered, looking around.

"I can sense Ezekiel." he told her.

"Not sure if he'd be with Angela, though." he admitted.

"Who do you wish to find first?" he then asked Aimee.

"Our son, or Angela?"

"Let's go talk to Zeke first." She commented. "Can stop by Angela afterward."

Yuri nodded before they headed off toward where their son was. On the way though, they saw someone sitting on one of the cots, getting her shoulder shifted - popped back into place. Her light cry of pain drew their attention.

"Are you all right?" She asked the young woman.

"Hmm? Oh, yes of course. I merely had an ... altercation with another in the building and as a result I had to have a dislocated shoulder repaired." She answered as the medic that had snapped her shoulder back into place just chuckled.

"All right Erica. Don't get your shoulder dislocated again, hey?" The medic asked.

"That's twice in three days." They added with a light sigh.

"I ... know. I do apologise. I don't intend for it." Erica countered after a moment or two.

After they'd both said their pieces, the woman that had arrived with Yuri paused.

"Hey, may I ask you something?" she asked the medic.

"Of course, what could I do for you, Aimee?" They responded.

". . . Zeke and Angela, where are the pair?" She asked, her tone curious as Erica got to her feet and stretched, albeit carefully.

"Ah, Zeke is in the western area, and Angela - if she is not with him - is in her office. All I can say with certainty is that she hasn't left the wing." was the medics response. Aimee noded.

"All right then. Thank you." The necromancer said with a soft smile.

Erica got up from the cot as the conversation was being held, and took a few steps forward, before faltering slightly.

Before she could actually fall, though, Yuri extended his hand, and allowed her a grab it, steadying herself.

"Careful." he said.

"Ah, you're Erica, yes?" he then asked.

"Ezekiel's mentioned you positively in the past." he told her.

"Are you all right?" he asked her.

"My son's mentioned that your latest... 'mana acquisition'... has made things a little difficult for you. Are you holding up well enough?" he asked further.

"Ah, thank you." Erica said after a moment, while she straightened up.

"And I am all right." She added with a soft smile.

"But yes, there have been a number of hiccups regarding my markings." She confirmed.

"I am adapting, though." she finished with as he felt a ... twinge from the hand that was on his before she removed it.

"However, I really do believe I must be on my way." She continued

"Very well then." Yuri responded.

"Go do what you must." he told her.

He was then silent, before looking at his own hand.

'Hm. Odd.' he thought.

"Anyway." he then said to Aimee.

"Of course. Lead the way." She said simply, motioning fo rhim to do just that.

As they approached, she just sighed.

"I do wonder how Angela is doing." She commented. "And please, Yuri... don't be too harsh on him. He didn't really have much of a choice."

Yuri just growled a little, but didn't say anything, as they entered the room.

They saw Zeke sitting there, and he was looking VERY guilty.

"......." they were all silent for a moment, before Zeke looked at them.

"....hi." he said.

"Guess you heard, huh?" he asked.

"Oh, we heard." Yuri assured him.

"How are you feeling?" She asked.

"I do know that a succubus' effect can be... absolutely brutal." She added with a sigh, a knowing tone to her voice.

". . . you ok?"

"Answer your mother." Uriel said, his tone impatient.

"...I don't know." Zeke admitted.

"What... what I did... I can't... I can't ever take it back..." he said.

Aimee just sighed lightly.

"Zeke... don't beat yourself up about this." She said simply.

"You know how you're feeling, obviosuly." She continued before pausing and laying a hand on his knee.

"What about Angela? How do you think she's feeling?" She asked. "Especially since we were told that Hal had to go make sure that Liv was all right."

"... I'm... reasonably sure your relationship with Angela will be fine."
