Forgive, O Lord, my
my little jokes on thee...

Zeke sighed when he heard that.

"A sad truth." he said.

"This is... a messed up situation, to put it VERY lightly." he muttered.

"And I can't get the fact that the fae back home were sensing something off and ominous outta my head." he then told her.

"It's never a good sign when fae are uneasy." he went on.

"And YOU said you're sensing something weird as well." he added.

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

"Liv and I are part fae, kind of." Angela commented before sighing.

"This is stressing me out though, not that that's too surprising." She admitted.

"I don't know what the hell I CAN do here. I know how to handle most situations, but something of this variety? What the hell am I supposed to do about a woman who can't die, catching a bug that should be gone?"

He crossed his arms over his chest and shook his head.

"I don't know." he said.

"I don't think ANYONE knows." he said further.

"Seriously. This is a situation that's... new. It's uncharted. It's... just... ngh." he stammered and grunted at the end.

She could see this was taking a bit of a toll on him as well.

It was in his DNA to help. But he didn't know how. He felt useless.

Angela was silent for a moment or two.

"To say this is frustrating, and scary, would be one hell of an understatement." She commented.

"considering the fact that I, at least, am at risk just because i'm in the area." She continued, sighing heavily.

"That's one virus I really don't want to get."

"Nobody wants to get it." Zeke responded.

"Hmmm." he mumbled.

"There HAS to have been SOMETHING done for it in terms of research..." he went on.

"My Dad's said that it's akin to like... a natural disaster. It shows up, wrecks havoc, and then disappears." he continued. "But I refuse to just let it be like that." he stated.

"Sadly, I can't think of any research done on it."

"I know that when it showed up last time, there was some research done on it, but I can't, for the life of me, remember WHO or WHERE." Angela admitted.

"It was covered in my studies." She added.

"But I just... it's usually every few centuries that it shows up again... and it hasn't even been one. This is weird."

"I guess it's tied to what you and the fae are feeling." Zeke replied.

"...which is ominous, seeing as I can't sense anything." he said.

"An archangel. Nephilim of an archangel technically, but you get my point." he said. "My 'danger sense' is pretty good." he went on, thinking about it a little more.

"...a shame Nate isn't here, in a sense." he then said further.

"His ability might prove useful."

"Very possibly, but Alicja was saying he was having... well, he was crumbling beneath stress. I told them both to fuck off for awhile, until his head is a bit more solidly on his shoulders, so to speak." Angela commented.

"And now he can't even get in here, considering the lockdown." She added, sighing heavily.

"I don't know if I can do anything here, either."

"...ok, THAT'S odd timing..." Zeke mumbled.

"I mean, he seemed fine last I saw him, which was... well, shortly before all this started." he said.

"And now he's suddenly falling apart at the seams?" he asked.

"Weird. And kind suspicious." he went on. "...in a 'can this really be a coincidence' sorta way." he clarified. "I don't think he has the capacity to hurt anyone in any way. Intentionally, anyway." he continued.

"Boy's... almost like Lindsay Fyrane, except... far less physically capable."

"I know, but ... I dunno, things seem.... odd, I guess." Angela commented.

"there are things going on that we just can't see, and I don't know what they are." She added.

"Adn yes. It bothers me. A lot."

"Understandably so." Zeke replied.

"It's frustrating for everyone, but must be especially for yourself." he said.

He then just sighed, and shook his head slightly.

"Hmph." he muttered.

"If only we have some clue." he said.

"But all we have is a vague ominous feeling that fae are sensitive to."

"I don't even have the resident wish granter available to ask for help." Angela added with a heavy sigh.

"I just hope he's doing well." She added. "The last thing we need is for HIM to start having problems too."

She was silent as she stood in front of the building, looking at it. She knew that she was at a location that could help, but she couldn't, in any way, understand why. She knew that there were problems, and that she could help, but she didn't know how, why, where, or anything. It was frustrating, especially she didn't even know who she was, exactly. All she knew was that she had a presence, and she recognised her face in the mirror, but not much more than that.

So she stepped up to the door and tried the handle, wondering if it would open.

"...that's a terrifying thought." Zeke mumbled.

---

As soon as she grabbed the handle, she heard a voice come from within.

"Miss, I would advise you not to-" the man started to say, before she managed to open the door and step through. However, as soon as she did, she felt... an intense sensation of pain.

It felt like electricity was coursing through her body at a high voltage, as well as every nerve ending being burned by fire. She passed through whatever was causing it in a few seconds, but the result caused her to fall to one knee from the pain she had felt.

"Good lord!" the man inside exclaimed, racing over.

"Are you all right!?" he asked.

'...and HOW did she GET through that...?' he then wondered silently.

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

She was completely silent, not even realising that she shouldn't have been able to get through that barrier. It should have been like an electrically charged wall, yet it wasn't. The elctricity had been there, most certainly, but the wall? That wasn't.

She was just there, down on one knee and her hands on the floor as she just tried to breathe. The pain was fading, which was fantastic, but that still hadn't been pleasant. At the same time, she seemed to think that maybe she expected that? Yet had no idea how she could have. She'd never been there before.

Right?

She didn't even notice the one approaching until he was right next to her.

"I... maybe?" She asked, almost sounding confused, lost.

"I mean, regarding that," she motioned back to the door she'd come through as she got to her feet, "I'm fine. A little tingly, but good." She added before meeting his gaze, her blue eyes, pale skin like marble and braided and clipped back black hair seemed to steal the breath from most people who saw her, regardless of gender or sexual preference.

"..." he was silent as he witnessed her beauty, but shook his head to try and clear his mind a little.

"I..." he stammered.

"Right." he said.

"Firstly, can I help you?" he asked.

"It's clear you've come here searching for help, and it's clear there's more to you than meets the eye." he went on.

"So why are you here?"

"And therein lies the maybe." She told him honestly, with a shake of her head.

"Maybe I'm all right? I don't know. I don't know much of anything." She admitted.

"Something pulled me here, something within told me that I could find help here, but I don't know why and I don't know what for."

"...ah... I see..." he responded.

"That's... ah... hm." he mumbled.

He then made his way to his desk, and sat down behind it.

"You say you don't know much of anything." he commented.

"Well, what DO you know?" he asked.

"Anything about yourself? Or... anything at all, besides a vague notion you can find help here?"

"I..." She started before shaking her head.

"I wish I knew." She added.

"I recognise my reflection, but that's literally it. I couldn't hope to tell you why or how I do." She added.

"It's a rather frustrating time. I don't even have any concept of time, for that matter."

He raised an eyebrow when she said that.

"...I see..." he said.

"Well... sadly, you've come at a very inopportune time, and... I'm afraid you're stuck here for the time being." he told her.

"The barrier that you just went through was meant to keep people out, or turn them away, because we're under lockdown, with our medical wing under quarantine." he explained.

"However, are you feeling sick or anything?" he asked.

"And I mean, physical illness." he clarified.

She was silent for a moment, looking to her hands.

"I... No. Not at all." she answered before looking back to him.

"... Perhaps I can help?" she asked. "I'm not sure how I can hope to, but... Maybe?"
