∞ 87: Rooftops [action]

[Around mid-morning, Albert can be seen picking up small things in the plaza -- nails, pens, groceries. He doesn't often do this, but it's been a week since he gave Caesar the task of repairing the stable, so he finds himself inspecting and repairing the amateurish work. That requires a few extra building supplies. Might as well take advantage of how calm everything is with the New Feathers coming in, right?

Albert spends the afternoon pulling out half-bent nails and readjusting crooked wooden slats. He can't say that he's disappointed, since Caesar actually tried to rebuild the stable's roof, but he can have the opinion that did a really shabby job. Silverbergs were apparently not very good roof-builders.

In the evening, after dinner, he'll be found up on house 42's roof, having climbed up through the skylight. It's something he's never really taken advantage of, and yet there's something familiar about it. He remains out there for a good while, almost meditating.]

Right, demon. [He still had a hard time understanding that. A frown appears on his face, though, at mention of his defeat.] I was able to fend him off and defeat the demons, up until he used some sort of rune magic that made him impossibly fast. I didn't even see him move.

The dawn rune saved me before he could finish me off, and Miakis found me soon afterwards.

Probably not. I was lucky. It doesn't often react as it did.

I will be. I don't plan to seek out a fight with him, especially not now.

Yes, because of that. [He didn't want her to worry, let alone get upset.]

Ah... She's doing better. [Yes, it was quite an understatement, but Frey won't be correcting him.] She was quite upset, yes. It... startled her, to say the least.

[Frey pauses.]....I'll admit, It is strange.

But I'd like to think of it as a second chance, as well.

I know. [He knows all too well.]

I'm going to do everything I can to protect her.
