"Let's just say that he's ... got mana and abilities that made him quite useful to my sister." Ashley answered.

"I'm not going to get more in depth than that, as it's not my place." She added.

"Anyway, how long am I stuck here, Rene?" She asked, her voice curious.

"Just for my own reference.

One.. by... one.
They only fall... a-part.
Can it be.. undone?

Rene just shrugged.

"Not long." he said.

"You're recovering nicely." he told her.

"If all goes well, tomorrow evening." he finished.

Ash still looked confused, but shrugged.

"At least there's that." he said.

"That's good."

"All right then." Ashley said with a soft smile.

---

She sighed as she left her home office. She'd just been on the phone with Rene, and had something she needed to say to their guest.

She found him out in the backyard, same place he usually was.

"Hey, Chris!" She called as she approached with a wave.

Chris had been sitting and doing nothing, watching some blooms grow, before glancing over towards the woman when she called to him.

He was silent, before getting up and starting to slowly get closer to her, meeting her somewhere in the middle.

"Yes?" he addressed her.

"What is it?' he inquired.

"Did what I did at the firm return to haunt you...?" he then wondered aloud, nervously.

He did NOT want that to happen.

'Not at all." She said.

"Nothing but good has come from that." She continued before crossing her arms. The cross was loose, as she was doing it for comfort.

"But I wanted to properly thank you for helping Ashley." She told him honestly.

"And I wanted to ask you something.... do you like law?"

"Oh." Chris replied.

"Well, you're welcome." he told her.

He was then silent as her question was posed.

"I... huh?" he muttered.

"Do I...?" he started to repeat the question, before pausing and pondering it.

"Well... I suppose so, yes." he answered.

"It's... fascinating. Such depth to it, and it sees to be a good way to keep one's mind in shape." he explained.

"Why?"

'How would you feel about properly studying it?" She asked after a moment or two.

"Because... as a thank you for saving someone I care immensely for, I would like to fund your way through school. So far as you maintain good grades and the like." She added.

"If you're interested, of course."

Chris was stunned.

Absolutely stunned.

"I... I..." he stuttered.

"R-Really?" he finally stammered out.

"You... you mean that?" he inquired.

"I... I would love to properly study law." he told her.

"But... but are you sure you trust me enough for this?"

"That's why we'll take it term by term." She told him simply.

"We can get you enrolled for the next year, but if you run into issues with your grades, your funding is cut." She continued.

"If you finish with straight a's, you don't owe me a dime. Anything below that will determine how much you would need to pay back - flunk out, you owe me all four years worth." She paused a moment.

"We'll figure out details and specifics for it later, but just thought I'd give you a heads up."

Chris paused and started to consider her offer.

"...that... that seems more than fair." he admitted.

"I... yeah, I can't say anything more than that." he said.

"I'm all for that." he told her.

"....heh." he then laughed.

"Never thought this sort of thing would be happening to me." he admitted.

She just chuckled lightly.

"To be fair, you didn't think that much would be happening to you, ever." She commented.

"I doubt you even knew that you weren't free with Encrae, before you actually were free." She then said.

"Anyhow, I'll go get a start on the registration papers. You'll have to fill out some of it yourself, but I can at least do some."

Chris just nodded.

"Fair points." he admitted.

He then sighed as she turned and left to start on the registration papers.

He glanced at the flowers, and then upwards.

"....a life." he said.

"I finally have my own life." he mumbled.

"And now... I'll DO something with it." he declared, before following the woman.
