“Oh, no, no,” Crystal interrupted before Belial could say anything. “Falcon
…” She glared at Belial for a moment before looking back towards the
Repairman. “…and his clan are not an issue. And now I think I remember
you. You came by when Falcon, Bedlam and I were having a Halloween
party, right?” she asked.

Belial rolled her eyes, placing a hand on her hip as she watched the conversation go on.

Shinko blinked as she looked towards the Repairman, curious as to what his response would be.

The Repairman tilted his head slightly, trying to place Crystal’s face. Slowly, everything clicked.

“…Wait…yeah, that’s right! Hey!” he waved. “Sorry, didn’t recognize you in that outfit!”

He turned to address both her and Shinko.

“I didn’t know you two had the same creator!” he remarked. “What a small multiverse it is!”

He laughed to himself, digging into his cart for some glue. As he did so, he asked, “So how you two been? How’re those shadow guys…?”
