"Hey." Zeke said.

"Thanks again. For... saving this Unit." he told her.

"I... it occurred to me that we haven't been properly introduced." he went on.

"I'm Ezekiel LeBlanc." he introduced himself.

"Most just call me 'Zeke', though."

Ayla waved before Smiling softly. She grabbed the tablet out of the messenger bag she had and typed something up.

It was not a problem. I am honestly just happy that I was able to help. She paused a moment.

There was no way to be sure if what I did would do anything. It was in your court. I am rather relieved that you had the strength of will to pull yourself out of the depths that you had been in due to Mistress.

"....." Zeke was silent for a moment.

"I still did... unforgivable things." he said.

"I... I can't even bring myself to face Angela." he admitted.

"How can I look at her again, after everything I said... and did..." he went on.

He then paused, before shaking his head.

"How are YOU doing?" he asked.

"Have you recovered from having to help me?"

Ayla nodded before sighing lightly. She couldn't properly help him with the issue of seeing whoever it was that he mentioned, but she did know he should.

... you should go talk to her. she typed.

If she's a quality woman, she will understand that it wasn't you.

Zeke just bit his lip when she said that.

"I..." he stammered.

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

He then sighed quietly, and looked at her sheepishly.

"I'm scared." he admitted.

"I don't... I mean... I just... I'm just... scared." he said.

"But... but you're right. I need to... I need to just do it." he then continued.

"No matter what the result is... I need... to just go and try and talk to her."

So go do that. Ayla had him read, knowing that she was at least righ tin that sense. It would be better than to leave it undone after all.

Or at least she knew she'd rather know sooner than later, as she was sure that this Angela woman would too. She may not have been able to speak definitely about it, but she had a pretty good idea.

Angela sighed lightly as she made her way out into the main entry area of the medwing. She'd just had to do quite a bit with Ty, again, to get him to revive - as he'd wanted hger to do that instead of honestly treat the injuries. It had been a lot though, as she'd had to remove a lot of shrapnel from him.

"Geez..." she muttered as she dropped the blood soaked covers into the bio trash.

As soon as she disposed of the gloves, she heard a voice.

It was behind her, and though it was close, she could barely hear it.

But she knew the voice.

"Um..." Zeke stammered, his tone unsure and guilt-laden.

"A... Angela?" he addressed her.

"Can... can we... talk?" he asked.

"I... well... I mean, we should." he said.

"After... what happened... what I've done..."

Angela just sighed lightly before turning to face him.

"head to my office." She told him.

"I'll be there in a minute or two. I have to log what I was doing for the records." She added.

"So just... head there. I'll be there soon."

Zeke was silent, but nodded.

He then left her, making his way to her office and going inside.

Once there, he sat down.

And waited.

He clasped his hands together and put them between his knees, before hanging his head low.

".......ngh." he grunted.

He was ready to lose Angela.

Actually, he wasn't. But he wouldn't blame her if she DID drop him.

He was left waiting for about fifteen minutes before hte door opened and she walked in. She closed it and leaned atgainst it - effectively stopping him from potentially bolting. That way at least.

"Liv's been asking about you." She said after a second.

"Wondering when you're coming home."

"I see." he said.

"I guess she... doesn't know." he went on.

"About what I did. What I said. How I acted." he continued.

"..." there was another pause, before he sighed.

"...and what have you been telling her?" he asked.

"To respond to her questions."

Angela just sighed before meeting his gaze.

"That you were stuck here under lockdown." She told him honestly.

"You're lucky, though." She then said. "When you attacked at home... she was already at school."

". . . And Cain's fine."

"...good. Cain is all right." he said.

"And Liv doesn't know." he went on.

"It should stay that way." he reasoned.

"She doesn't need to know about this. About... what I did. How I... threatened her." he said further.

"..." he was then silent, before biting his lip.

"But what do we say now?' he asked.

"Do we tell her the truth about... my absence?"

Angela shrugged.

"I'm going to leave telling her to you." She told him honestly.

"It doesn't matter to me. She does know that this place was under lockdown - although she believes it was for longer than it actually was." She added.

"She also does know you injured my wrist." She added. "As I couldn't come up with a lie for that one. But I told her that we were sparring as she knows that I want to learn to fight in case I ever need it."

Zeke wasn't sure what to say to all that, but then the first thing she said fully registered.

"...to me?" he asked.

"Wait... what?" he asked her.

"You would even let me near her now?" he then inquired.

"After all that?" he continued.

"Angela, I... I... that... I mean..." he stammered, before he started crying.

"How can you trust me ever again?" he asked.

Angela just sighed.

"Oh, so you are the one who willingly went and did all that." She said.

"all right then. That's good to know." She added with a sigh.

"Tis a shame, I thought it was because of the elven influence. Oh well."

"You know what I mean!" Zeke hastily responded.

"It's happened! It can happen again! I am susceptible to her!" he continued.

"What if it happens again!?" he asked.

"What if it goes further!?" he went on.

"Are you willing to put the safety of you and Liv up for that bet?" he asked further.

"...what if... I'm still a danger...?"

"So we eliminate the problem." Angela said simply, plainly.

"What do you mean?" Zeke asked after a moment or two.

"Simple. We make sure that elf is rotting in a box somewhere,." She stated simply before sighing.

"And yes, I realise that finding her is not going to be easy."

Zeke was... speechless.

He couldn't believe what he was hearing.

"I... I..." he stammered.

"Are.. are you saying that... you... you forgive me?" he asked.

"Or is this just a 'let's try to return to standard for Liv' thing?" he asked further.

"Because, either way, I'm just happy you still feel like I deserve to be in both of your lives." he reasoned with a small smile.

"It's more than I deserve." he finished, sounding genuinely happy.

Angela paused a moment. She was more than a little surprised that he seemed to be perfectly all right with her saying to kill an elf, but she wasn't going to bring it up - or complain.

"It's a 'we will see how this goes', because you're right. You may still be a risk." She told him.

"But honestly? I'm willing to take that risk.'
