The alarm with which the Angel turns is probably the first sign that something has changed, her fingers reaching instinctively for the hilt of a sword that is not there. Only when she registers that it's Remi behind her does the girl relax , a light flush contrasting against the bags beneath her eyes.

Her empty hands drop down to her sides; she smiles slightly at Remi's playful words, a rueful, tired thing. "The Temple, actually- and no. If anyone needs rescuing it's Gideon from me." Too-slender shoulders rise and fall in a shrug.
With one last look she steps away from the storefront, and all the dreams she doesn't have. "I meant to visit but..." Another shrug as she trails off, looking at the ground. She'd already turned to him once when her life imploded. It would be rude to repeat the act.
