When Tsurumi was approached by Viviana, who appeared in the form of a bat after entering her office...needless to say she was surprised. It was only for an instant before she stood up from her lavish pillow behind a kneeling table and took everything in stride as she addressed the girl. "I presume you've returned here for a reason?"

The young demoness was grinning in a way that told Tsurumi that the girl's partner was exacting his form of justice in a way that would make Frederick Von Eldritch cackle in glee.

"You're needed at the Gambling Den Lady Fenghuang. We've got the pervert right where we want him. So hurry up now." Tsurumi grinned and immediately grabbed her umbrella.

Far to personal and we can't guarantee how such a drastic level of change will effect him. Which is why it's been a slow process. Snails paced even."

"When you said he—you're not talking about the boy? Are you?"

Viviana smiled. "You're a clever Lady." Her smile faded. "No. I'm not. Aci's treated like a member of the family. We are having to come to terms with his inevitable memory restoration in our own time. As to be expected, my boyfriend's taking the inevitable outcome with immense hesitation and fear of losing his best friend/honorary brother about as well as one could imagine. We've had a few close calls with panic attacks..."
