The one she'd requested stood there for a moment, almost surprised.
"Oh?" he asked.
"Of course, of course." he said, stepping out of the room and shutting the door.
"I can do just about anything." he chuckled.
"What can I do for ya?" he asked.

Hal took a deep breath, held it for a moment, and then exhaled.
"You're right." he said.
"I need to focus on tonight." he agreed. "It's been so long since we've had time together, we should enjoy it." he reasoned with a smile.
"I don't know how you can help, but if you can, it'd be wonderful." he then said further.
"But yes... for now, let's enjoy the evening." he finished, smiling at her.

"Huh?' Hal muttered, snapping to attention.
"Oh, sorry." he apologised.
"I'm just... I'm thinking about Lunet." he told her.
"More specifically, the incident from last week." he went on. "And even MORE specifically... but also more broadly... her sight. Or lack thereof." he clarified further.
"I mean, she manages quite well, but... the incident has made me wonder if there's anything to be done about her lack of sight." he continued.
"My mana can't fix this, but I know that Desiree McCormick has been able to find an elegant workaround for her own issue." he added, sighing heavily.
"But eyesight is far more complex than hearing." he lamented.

"Splendidly." Cain replied.
"It's running better than it ever has, and the problems are non-existent." he said.
"I tell you what, you're some of the best tech support EVER." he complimented her.
The following week, Hal and Hollie were out on a dinner date, having gained access to a restaurant that normally took years to book a table at.
However, even though Hal was 'there', Hollie could see he was a bit... distracted.

"..............." Hal was silent for a moment, before sighing.
"I trust him." he said.
"Very well." he then told her.
"I'll see you later tonight." he said further.
He then leaned in, gave her a hug and a kiss, and then stepped back.
"Bye, sweetie." he said, before disappearing from where he was.
"Well. That went better than expected." Cain commented as he reentered the room.

"Hmph." Hal muttered.
"This is still unacceptable." he said.
"You shouldn't have been hurt like this." he reasoned.
"...how are you?" he then asked her.
"Are you all right? Did you suffer any trauma or a concussion or anything?" he asked further.
"Do you need to be taken to the hospital?"
"This is still unacceptable." he said.

Hal just growled once she said what she did, before sighing deeply.
"Ugh." he grunted.
"Fine." he said.
"I SUPPOSE this could be an honest accident." he finally admitted.
"I still don't like it." he then said.
"You have a black eye. And it's not good."

Even though Lunet couldn't see, she could feel her father's anger.
"...excuse me?" he asked.
"Someone did this to you." he said.
"From everything you've told me, this wouldn't have been an accident, yes?" he reasoned.
"And I refuse to let someone get away with assaulting my daughter." he reasoned.
"Why are you protecting them?" he asked.

"Got it." Cain replied.
He then quickly exited through one of the doorways, as Hal rushed into the other one.
"Lunet!" he exclaimed, as he raced over towards her.
"My lord, your eye!" he said.
"Who did this to you!?" he demanded, anger in his tone.
"Who's going to pay for this!?"

"I.... yeah..." Cain muttered.
"Can't... promise anything in THAT sense..." he admitted.
"Odds are they're contacting him right now. I was the first contact, seeing as I'm always available, but he IS your father, and they'll be contacting-" he went on, before he was interrupted by a burst of mana at the front door.
"Lunet!?" Hal exclaimed, concern and anger in his tone.
"......him." Cain finished.
"Speak of the devil." he mumbled.

"No interruptions." Cain replied.
"Seriously. I was here." he told her.
"I'm a live-in sitter. I was here in case an emergency came up, or whatever." he continued.
"I'm more than happy to help whenever I'm needed." he assured her further.
"All that matters is that YOU'RE okay."

Cain just sighed.
"We'll see." he said.
"That's all I can say." he told her.
With that, he used his mana and teleported her back home, alongside himself, and they appeared in the den of the place.
"All right." he said.
"There anything you want?" he asked her.
"Something to eat? Drink? Some mana meds to help with the headache you have?" he offered.
"We'll see." he said.

"I was told you were injured, and should be taken home." Cain responded.
"...but a soccer ball to the face, huh?" he then asked. "Well... that makes sense." he commented.
"You really look like it. And your Dad is NOT gonna be happy." he muttered.
"Yeah, you got a hell of a shiner goin' on there." he told her.
"Looks like it's gonna be a bad one."

"....all right." the nurse replied.
"We'll get someone here to pick you up." she told her.
Sure enough, about 3-4 minutes later, someone was there, and Lunet heard Cain's familiar voice.
"Holy crap, Lunet!" he exclaimed.
"What the hell happened??" he asked her.
