The smile disappeared all-together when the mention of Damien rose to the surface. He hesitated in his answer for a minute before nodding a little. "He was my mentor. Pretty much brought me into the Ministry and taught me for two years. So...it's an adjustment." If she hadn't gathered from the blow-up that had occurred in the offices the other day.

But enough about such matters. "How have you been?" The last time he had seen lights, besides in the office, was when she had been healing Ikenna.
Lights realised she'd hit a sore spot where Damien was concerned. She mentally facepalmed herself. Great, just great. She should have known that from the other day's blow-up. She was about to apologise for bringing it up when Sabel dismissed the subject.

She bit her lip, looking distractedly at the corner of her lift. "Not great," she admitted softly. "My baby daughter died a few months ago, and I can't get over it." It wasn't just Naomi, but Lights really didn't want to go into any of the more complex stuff. "She was never actually born, but I wanted her so badly ... I guess it was like I already had her. It hurt, still does, mostly because I ... didn't protect her. Two Cruciatus Curses and multiple animagus transformations are apparently not good for a growing baby." She took a deep breath. She was done with crying, and just wanted to get on with her life. But past mistakes had a nasty habit of coming back to haunt you.
