Rei exited stage left and returned about five minutes later, heralded by the creaking of the doors in the house. She’s dressed in the robe he’d enchanted for her a couple of Christmas’ ago, and looking much much more covered up than the simple bra and panties from earlier. Not that Harry should’ve noticed exactly what she was wearing, because she’d probably take a swing at him if he commented.

“Harry. It’s…been a while. Welcome back, I suppose.”

There’s a dry sense to her words, mirthless and amused at the same time. This isn’t the Luceti he’d left, not even close. Not the horrible prison, but rather some purgatory with a few small perks. Oh he was going to love that.
