The death of Cyrus had shattered a great many things: the image of the fast, carefree life crime had offered, immature notions of untouchability, the family left behind, and, in many ways, Darius himself. In the aftermath, he had dropped from the grid, he had clashed with his father again over the brothers' occupation, and he had grieved, deciding that the steps to it were nonsense in a whirlwind of them all.
[break][break]

The tempest he had been living through endured for a week before the young man had resurfaced. Attempting to cleanse himself of the sins and vices of his past cold turkey, Darius felt his muscles ache, endured his skin sensations of stretch and irritation, set against the numbness of his mind, and made his way to a potential new start. Amnesty and training to be a productive member of society was not something either Mansour brother had given thought when news first broke. Still, Cyrus was dead and all but forgotten by the world in the broader conflict against crime as but another poor young lost soul. Darius sought means to avoid ending the same, even as a voice nagged in the back of his mind that it was a trap, that he should slink back into the spiral his old life had devolved into.
[break][break]

Despite the calls to cut and run, Darius sat in unease as the lobby steadily cleared. Initially, he had considered leaving his team back at his ramshackle apartment or with a friend on the chance this was a lure, and he was walking into imprisonment. But as he felt the soothing touch of Wawet's fur against the pack of his palm, fidgeting with the clipboard loaded with packed filled out to start a new life, part of his anxiety shed away. Turning his hand to scratch at the back of the Houndour's ears, he sighed, "Suppose we're all too tired to keep running anyways, right bud?" Letting the canine's head relax onto his lap, Darius let his shoulders ease as he waited for his name to be called, comforted that one way or another, in shackles or free as a pidgey, he was on a path forward for the first time in a while.

Everyone deserves a second chance.[break][break]

Such a sentiment is easier said than believed. But for better or worse, Luka believes in in it wholeheartedly. Despite everything she's seen and everything that's happened to her, she can't help but want to have faith in people. Some might call her naive or even foolish for giving everyone the benefit of the doubt; her good heart has certainly gotten her into trouble. But she can't help but think that a person can't be judged wholly by their mistakes. No one is born evil, after all. They were all angels once, and they can be so again.[break][break]

Maybe that is naive, but maybe the world needs people like her anyways.[break][break]

And that's why she's here, helping to recruit wayward souls into the ranger's amnesty program. She's far from the mastermind behind it; without and it wouldn't be able to exist in such a capacity. She's just grateful that she's able to help in her own way.[break][break]

"Monsieur...Mansour?"[break][break]

The woman who calls his name steps forward in a soft cloud of pink. She looks like she was made up in a dream; a dainty, fairy-like little thing. Her eyes rove about the room while the name remains poised on her lips, ready to be called again if needed.[break][break]

A man sitting with his Houndour is the only one to react to her. This must be her guy![break][break]

Luka smiles softly at him, kitten heels clicking against the floor as she approaches. "Hi there! My name is Luka, and I'll be handling your case today. You weren't waiting long, I hope?"[break][break]
