William nodded in response to Cyzarine. Thank you. Glaring at Nick as he stood up, William placed Mike in his arms and stood on his shaking legs, trying to carry the man upstairs to Butcher. He was still sore, so the task was made difficult. He walked slowly, not caring as the people in the room stared. He needed to get Mike to Butcher. CLimbing up the first few steps, it was only a mere minute before he reached the top.

"Don't look at me like that." Nick muttered, before giving Mike a quizzical look. "Mikey's right. How did you know?"

Cyzarine smiled wider in relief, shot a glance to Butcher, and went to help William with Mike. She'd suffer Mikey's wrath later (or not, preferably) - right now the man needed help.
Andrew, please help. she murmured mentally, her throat dry and voice suddenly unable to function.

"William, no," Mike had said weakly when the man had picked him up. He didn't struggle. He looked at Mikey, unable to meet the eyes of the man he had killed. "I didn't know until they aimed for Nick's stomach. They saw it. It's the only reason they hurt him. I told them to stop but they wouldn't listen..."

Mikey hid his face again, shaking with grief.

I'm not hearing this, Butcher thought to himself in disbelief before standing. He reached out to take Mike from William since the man was far too thin to be carrying anyone. "I can't do anything for you," He realized. "Is there anything else you wanted me for?" He tilted his head so the fact that he'd been crying wouldn't bo so obvious to the pair. He didn't want them to think Mikey was hurting him.

Nick covered Angel's ears, trembling. "No, Papa!" She said in her clear voice. "Angel doesn't like it!" She struggled out of his embrace, hovering above everyone else.

Cyzarine's eyes widened a little at what Butcher said. But you have to help him...can't you ease the pain at all? she pleaded.
The little girl's mind was painfully open to Cyzarine, what with her being so young. Cyzarine flinched as she started holding back memories and thoughts from the girl. Angel? I need you to stop that. she told the girl quickly, trying to keep calm.

"William has a scar on his stomach that needs to disappear," Mike whispered to Butcher. "Please." He watched Angel fly and smiled weakly, trying to catch his breath. "I shouldn't have let them. I'm so sorry."

Mikey covered his ears, not wanting to hear anything. He moaned quietly, flashes of that night flashing through his mind.

"I can't ease pain. I can heal wounds but I can't take pain away. I'm sorry," Butcher closed his eyes a moment and got himself under control. "They're gone aren't they?" Why else would he have a scar on his stomach?

"Mikey?" Nick gently moved towards him. He placed a hand on his former lover's shoulder, giving him physical form.

[so yeah, now everyone can see Nick as though he was human again.]

Cyzarine got to her feet shakily and staggered back, trying to get down the stairs without falling.
"Angel...please stop...I-I don't want to see your memories." she whispered, both mentally and verbally. She couldn't take much more, especially after the way she'd retrieved the file from the fire.

Mike closed his eyes. "They're gone," he repeated after Butcher. He took William's hand and squeezed it.

Mikey stared at Nick, tears staining his cheeks. "Angel." He whispered. "Can you come here?" The little girl slowly floated down.

Butcher carefully put Mike at the top of the stairs and pulled William closer to heal the scar on his stomach. He closed his eyes, "You didn't do it yourself did you? Nothing's damaged. You can still have babies." As soon as he was done he took his shaking hands away and sat back against the wall where he was before.

Nick watched as Mikey took Angel's hands carefully. He moved away, turning to a memory again.

Cyzarine's gaze remained on Angel even as she moved to Mikey. Her knees shook before giving out from under her, submitting her to the floor. She landed with a bump, more pained by the unwanted visions than the 'fall'. "Angel please!" she sobbed, as a flurry of memories slipped past her barrier, blurring her vision.

Mike nodded slowly, his body sore. "We will have babies," he told Butcher, eyes half-closed. He watched him sit against the wall. "You've had a hard time too, haven't you?"

"Angel, honey." Mikey whispered in her ear, kissing the side of her face. "Do you see that man at the top of the stairs?" Angel nodded. "Could you do Daddy a huge favour? Can you help him?"
"Yes Daddy." She kissed his cheek and gently soared away again.

Butcher hugged his knees, pressing his face against them. He wrapped his wings around himself. "You don't even want to know. William's body probably rejected Ryland's devil spawn anyways. I think your children would have a better chance and maybe not move so much. Hopefully..." Don't think about what happened.

Nick moved to lean his head on Mikey's back, not saying a word. The two were silent.

Cyzarine's mental barriers fell completely, and the Avian-girl let out a small cry of mingled surprise and pain as the memories bombarded her.
"ANGEL STOP IT!" she shrieked, trying to choke back sobs. "Please..." she cried. "Please make it stop..."

Mike nodded again. He saw Angel fly up to him. He smiled again. She seemed so close, yet so far away from him. He said her name out loud and tried to move or sit up, but fell back down and groaned in pain.

Mikey watched in silence.

His daughter whimpered, staring at Mike with large eyes. She looked back to her fathers, sitting mutely there, and gained courage from them. She placed a hand on Mike's knee, and the other on Butcher's, and closed her eyes.
