"Cool." Uriel responded.

"And yeah, I do." he said.

"April 17th." he told her.

"And as for the year. White lie." he went on.

"Seriously. The year changes so much." he muttered, sighing and shaking his head.

"However, we can figure out a year that's acceptable together, I suppose." he then reasoned.

"Hm." Uriel muttered.

"That's true." he said.

"If need be, I can take us where we need to go." he then told her.

-About 2 months later-

Steff was asleep in the den, Vincent was reading a book, and Aimee had just gotten back from the market with some fruit and vegetables.

"Aimee, can you come see me when you have a moment?" Vincent called to her.

Aimee promptly put the food away, before going to see him.

"Don't you think it's about time I met this Yuri?" Vincent asked her.

Sure enough, about a few seconds later, Uriel emerged from the rune, dressed as expected.

"Ngh." Steff muttered.

"Huh?" he asked.

"Oh. He's here." he mumbled, nodding back off to sleep.

"...." Vincent was just silent, stunned by the sheer mana presence in the house now.

"Yeah?" Uriel said as he stepped through.

"......" Uriel was silent, before sighing.

"Right then." he said.

"Well, here goes everything." he said further.

He then shook his head, and made his way into the den.

"What the hell?" Aimee then heard Vincent asked.

"Heaven, actually." Uriel responded.

"An angel?" Vincent asked Uriel.

"...technically." Uriel muttered.

"....Uriel." Vincent said.

"An archangel." he said further, to which Yuri just sighed.

"I am." he confirmed.

"And I assume you've met one of us before." he commented.

"I have." Vincent responded. "The one called Raphael." he told him.

"Lovely..." Uriel said, pinching the bridge of his nose.

"The one that sees humanity as insects."

"...." both Vincent and Uriel were silent as Aimee revealed that.

"I see." Vincent replied, a dark tone to his voice.

"I know the company I keep isn't the best, but they are essentially my family, and I would appreciate not being judged by them." Uriel interjected.

"...admittedly, I do not know how to react here." Vincent responded.

"I have... very conflicting emotions within me right now." he said.

"I'm not surprised." Uriel sighed.

"Aimee, you are always so damn literal." Vincent said.

"She is." Uriel responded.

Vincent just narrowed his eyes at the archangel, before getting up from where he was.

"No. There is nothing else." he said.

"I'm going outside for a walk." was all he said further, before he left the room, and they heard the front door open, and then close.

"Quite frankly, I think that went as well as it could have." Uriel responded.

"Archangels already have a reputation for those that know about us at all." he told her.

"And he's already met one of us... which isn't really that good." he continued.

"Combine that with the fact that it was the condescending one that probably acted like the act of beholding him was some sort of divine favour..." he went on, trailing off a little, and sighing.

"I think we're lucky he didn't outright say I was no good and bar you from associating with me." he finished.

Uriel just sighed, as Steff suddenly spoke up.

"He might not, as well." he said.

"There's a chance he won't judge Yuri by his brothers." he told them.

"I hope so." Uriel responded.

"..........." he was then silent, before looking at Aimee.

"I'll be right back." he told her, disappearing in a pillar of light, and appearing in front of the house he and his brothers shared.

"Ugh, I need to figure this out." he growled to himself.

Steff shook his head.

"Naw, don't worry about it." he said.

"You have enough to worry about as is." he told her with a small sigh, as he sat up.

"I just wish I could help." he muttered further.

Meanwhile, Uriel had made his way to the large fountain in the front yard of his 'home', and looked at the flowing water.

"...maybe I should talk to the boss..." he mumbled.

"I need to talk to SOMEONE, and my brothers will be NO help..."
