A week passes by after Alastor's little interview with Michael, and when he looks to the bracelet on his wrist he is left with a feeling of doubt. Did the archangel not trust him? Was there something wrong? If there was why didn't he tell him anything?

The day after when he awakens again, he is greeted by his mother and Emily who was very worried over him. The two had to explain to him as to what was going on and also had to explain to him that since he wasn't a hundred percent purified, there would be difficulty but that it was not his fault. Alastor made sure to keep it all in mind. When he asked about the bracelet, his mother reassured him that it was only for his protection so that Michael would be alerted should something happen to him again. Alastor puts it all together, and chooses to write it all down in a separate journal to keep on hand. This way he could process his thoughts, and write down his questions without losing track and without losing track of time as well when thinking about it all. Even if the situation was being handled however, he still didn't trust nay of it. And couldn't bring himself to fully trust in the ones watching over him. Mainly, Sera.

As wonderful of a person as she appears to be as a Seraphim, she still appears to have some of her own secrets up her sleeve. She also didn't trust him upon his arrival despite her gentle remarks and reassuring behavior. He was grateful and honored that she chose to feed to his desires of having a radio show, but not because he was happy with having it. No, it was because she wanted to keep track of him and his lessons to make sure he would remain proper in all manners of discussion. He knew that she didn't like the topic of Lucifer. He also figured out that she holds a tremendous amount of grudge over him based on her body language during their discussion of forgiveness. He wasn't a fool and could read people well, angel or not her body language and facial expressions exposed her two-faced ways. Whether or not she was evil though for it, he couldn't say. To him it felt more like paranoia. Maybe, it was good to be paranoid so that she could make decisions that would protect the souls in heaven, but it was also terrible to be so paranoid as her decisions could be irrational. And this was proven to him one day when he was handling his lessons in her office.

He was sitting on a with her sitting at her desk as she worked on several of her own documents. He had his own textbook filled with the teachings, and also had his other journal to take notes in. By this point, his forgiveness list was almost halfway through, leaving for his wings to grow even more. He predicted that by the end he would have a fully grown set of wings that probably be larger than him. And he was excited for it.

As he hummed along to a tune while studying, the door to her office swings open with a slam.

"Sera! I got the total count for ya!"

"Sir, may I advise you to knock on the door first? She's fairly busy." Another angel with a mask says from his side.

The man who stood in the doorway was wearing a large robe, more than likely to cover his bloating body that appeared to stick out just a tad bit. His wings were larger than most, and he wore a mask that honestly reminded Alastor of a Demon. This honestly caught his attention, but in order to not raise suspicion he chooses to keep his eyes on his books as he kept taking notes.

Sera had lifted her head immediately as he burst through the doors and freezes as Michael's orders ring out loud in her head.

'Right....I need to keep them away from each other. With the personalities they have they could both clash at any moment.'

She clears her throat and sighs with frustration, "Adam listen to your lieutenant and knock next time. No barging in or teleporting, do I make myself clear?"

The larger angel shrinks back a bit, "Yeah, yeah got it."

Alastor feels his stomach turn.

'Adam? As in the first man? You've got to be kidding me...'
