Azazel nodded in response.

"Yeah." he replied.

"The legal team here is amazing." he told her. "They can seemingly do the impossible." he said.

"So if anyone can get you your bike back, with the least amount of legal trouble, it's them." he told her.

"Right then. Hungry?" he asked.

"Because I DO know you eat, despite being a pesudo-reaper."

"Mmhmm." Sharp responded, before they all left the office.

"I'm going to see Jake." he told his secretary, before they stepped into the hall and parted ways.

"Well, then..." Azazel muttered.

"I guess I'm showing you around the Unit." he commented.

"Uh... well, I suppose I should show you where you can stay." he said. "Let you pick one of the dorms we have." he finished, still sounded a bit confused... but it was most likely due to the unclear statements about the past beforehand.

Sharp just shook his head.

"I would be a massive hypocrite if I were to cling to the past." he said.

"Eh?" Azazel muttered.

"Ash her." Sharp said to him.

"While you are showing her around the Unit." he told him.

"Meanwhile, I'm going to go talk to Jake, let him know what happened."

"Uh... hey." Azazel responded.

"How...? I mean, did you...? That is...?" he stuttered confusedly, before Sharp sighed.

"How is Aedan?" he asked.

"She'll be fine after a system flush." Azazel responded.

"Excellent." Sharp replied, before looking at Rylie.

"Thank you." he said to her.

Sharp shook his head.

"I do not know of any." he replied.

"If they are out there, then they are surely in hiding." he told her.

"And who is to say what the reapers do and do not want?" he asked rhetorically. "Very few people can actually answer that question." he said, as he was buzzed by his secretary.

"Azazel is here to see you." she said into the intercom.

"...send him in." Sharp responded, before looking at Rylie.

Sharp nodded.

"Yes." he responded.

"You dullahans are nearly extinct now. As are djinns, like myself." he said.

"Most of us didn't know how to adapt." he continued. "But you and I have been lucky, and managed to somehow find something of a place in this modern world." he said further.

"Time is the ultimate when it comes to the power to change things." he then added. "If given enough of it, anyone will inevitably change." he said.

"I'm glad to see yours was for the better."

Sharp just chuckled.

"Indeed he has." he said.

"It's rather adorable, really." he commented.

"And he'll be here shortly, I would imagine." he told her.

"Word travels fast here." he said. "Odds are he'll have heard of this, and will rush here to check up on you." he went on, sitting back in his chair.

"....it has been a very long time." he then commented.

"It does seem you've changed your attitude since then."

Sharp just shook his head.

"What is done is done." he told her.

"Words do not solve anything, change anything, or make up for anything." he said.

"...attitudes, however, do." he went on, telling her something in his own subtle way.

"I'll have Azazel show you around, seeing as you seem to already know him." he told her.

"Do you have any special needs or equipment you need tending to?" he then asked her.

Again, Sharp sighed.

"I have a legal team here." he told her.

"They'll be able to help you out, sort your bike out, and keep it low-key." he said.

"However... it may take time." he went on.

"And it will be easier for them if they know where to find you." he reasoned.

"So you'll stay in one of the dorms here."

Sharp was silent as Rylie said what she did.

".............I see." he replied.

"Well, then I thank you." he told her.

"It would seem you have saved at least one of my agents." he said. "We'll have to wait for certain on Aedan's condition before I say you saved her." he reasoned.

"Now." he went on.

"You say you require assistance in your ruined motorcycle." he commented.

"Is there anything else?" he asked.

"Hm." Sharp mumbled.

"I see." he replied.

"Well, that explains why you have sought us out." he said.

"And you DO seem to be at least a friendly acquaintance of Azazel..." he went on, trailing off some.

"But back to addressing Aedan." he went on.

"Before I do anything, I need to know what's happened to my agent." he told her.

Sharp sighed.

"Mm." he mumbled.

"I try." he said.

"I've managed to rebuild since... well, the last time we met." he told her.

"Now." he said further.

"Care to explain what's happened to Aedan?" he asked her.

"And why you have sought the Unit out." he added.

Sharp was silent as she said what she did.

His expression didn't soften at all, but he did look down some, and pinched the bridge of his nose.

"Oi." he muttered.

"This is a right mess." he said.

He then looked to his secretary, and sighed.

"Contact Jake." he told her. "Let him know there is no need to raise the alarm for the building, or anywhere else." he told her further.

"And YOU." he then said, looking at Rylie.

"My office." he told her, turning and heading into said office.

Before the secretary could answer, the door to the office opened, and Sharp stepped out.

"No need." he said.

"I am here." he told her.

"I never thought I would see you again." he commented.

"Let alone HERE, of all places." he continued.

"....." he was then silent, as he continued to lock his gaze on her.

"WHY are you here?" he asked.

"Is it now MY time?"
