| He reappeared in the trees just close to Vincent's backyard, and sighed.
"Emelie... I wish I could love you like you still love me... but I can't... and you deserve better than that." he said quietly, before heading to where he could sense Madison.

| Madison was sitting in the den with Vincent, again corporeal.
"Huh, seems Gregory's back." She said as she felt him enter the barrier she'd set up.
"Comfy?" She asked Vincent with a chuckle, he was using her as a pillow, as seemed to be common when she was there.

| Vincent looked up into her eyes and smiled.
"Mmmm, of course." he replied.
"Your lap's always been the best pillow ever."

| Madison just chuckled, and smirked.
"I wonder if he'll come in, or if he's expecting me to meet him..." She commented.

|
| Just as she finished asking her question, Gregory was standing at the doorway, crossing his arms.
"Enjoying yourselves?" he asked, his voice light, and also sounding like when he was alive.

| Madison jumped as she straightened up and twisted to look at Gregory.
"Your voice..." She started before she actually saw him.
"Gregory... did you give up your position?" She asked. "You... You're different... like when you had to save my ass a bit ago."

| He smiled at her.
"Didn't you feel it?" he asked her.
"That surge of power into your body? But nowhere near as drastic as when you temporarily had all my abilities?" he asked further.

| "I.... I kinda..." Madison started before sighing.
"I wasn't paying attention." she answered honestly.
"But... now that you mention it... Why? what the hell...?" She asked, curious.

| "We're both reapers now." he said.
"You deal with those that are 15 and under, and I deal with everyone else." he continued.
"And with my powers being less than before, I seem to get to keep my eyes and voice and such." he added.

| "You're... paler than before. Like.. when I actually last saw you alive..." Madison said before shaking her head.
"And alright, I can get used to this, definitely." She said with a smile.
"Think you can, Vincent?" She asked

| "It's not perfect, but it's better than nothing." Gregory replied.
"Yeah." Vincent replied, seeming deadpan and monotone, before getting up and walking over to Gregory.
"So... you're the one." he said. "You're the one that took Madison from me those years ago, and now you plan to keep her, huh?" he asked.
"Got a problem with that?" Gregory asked.
"As long as you take care of her, not at all." Vincent replied, sounding like his usual self now.
"I can assure you I will." Gregory said to him.

| When Vincent got up, Madison honestly started to feel a bit scared. She had not idea what it was the she should do... or say.
When Vincent started sounding more normal though, she relaxed.
"... Don't scare me like that, Vincent..."

| Vincent just chuckled a bit.
"Heh, sorry Maddy, couldn't resist." he replied.
"Not like I could have done anything, anyway." he added jokingly.

| "True. Gregory's already dead." Madison said with a chuckl.e
"Anyway, thank you, Vincent." She said.
"It actually... it really does mean a lot hearing that you're alright with this." She told him honestly.

| "Of course I am." he assured her.
"It's wonderful that you're happy again." he added with another smile.
"And I intend to keep her happy as well." Gregory chimed in, which caused Vincent to simply nod approvingly.
