He nodded. "I will be back soon, my sweet."

"Go, you big flirt. And don't come back until you're in with Luck," Tal murmured teasingly. "Or any time that you want."

He nodded, slipping out

Lady Mistress was just approaching the door. "Azrail," she greeted politely. "What are you doing here?"

"Oh, just had to have a… short conversation." He said

Lady Mistress inclined her head but didn't inquire further. "Very well. Good day," she said, continuing towards the house.

He stepped out, letting out a breath he didn't realize he'd been holding.

Luck was rearranging her hair on the street below, waiting for Lady Mistress to get back.

He stepped down to the street, standing beside the girl. "Luck."

Luck jumped. "Oh, hi Azrail…"

"And what might you be doing around here?" He said, turning up his charm as far as he would allow himself

"Just waiting for Lady Mistress to get back," Luck sighed.

"Ah." He said, nodding

"What about you?" she asked.

"Oh, I just needed to have a conversation with Time concerning a certain family that I would happily greet."

"What do you mean?" she asked, confusedly.

"Oh, nothing…"

"No, what did you mean?" Luck asked, taking a curious half-step closer to him.

"Their teenage son deserved the medical treatment they denied." He said coldly. After all, it wasn't a far out lie.

"Oh… I could pull some strings…" Luck said shyly with a grin. She fingered her necklace, a silver pendant of a four-leaf clover.

"Oh, don't worry, we got that covered. They are now next on my list."

Luck's smile faded until it was forced. "Oh… okay…" She just wanted to help someone…

"But… maybe a few things will not go their way before their time."

Luck perked up a bit. "Such as?"

"Ohhh, I don't know… but maybe the father doesn't get his promotion, and the mother has a falling out."

(This is what I picture Luck looking like: https://i.pinimg.com/236x/1c/8c/a4/1c8ca49b51decf75bf521fc1521854ee.jpg)

She bit her lip. "Making people have a falling out is against my job rules…"

He nodded. "Oh, well, perhaps she just so happens to 'accidentally' breaks the box of antiques in the attic."

Luck hesitated. "Doesn't this seem…"

"Unfair?"

Luck nodded, slightly scared.
