Meanwhile, in Los Angeles...

Willow had left LA with more questions than answers about making his soul stay in body, but she promised to stay in touch about it.  Angel wasn't against using his resources to continue research but said resources were more limited...especially in light of some of the attempts on his life lately

Fred walks towards the roof. She isn't going there to be alone.. she'd be more safe to be alone in Angel's old office than she would going to the roof. The roof attracted brooding. And she was afraid that's what Angel was doing.

Sure enough, she spies his back. He's staring out over Los Angeles again. She tilts her head and watches him a moment, trying to determine which flavor of brood he's indulging in. Then, she just chooses to stand there and wait for him to acknowledge her. She knows he knows she's there.

"Hi, Fred." Angel says simply. He then turns and smiles. "Any new business?" He says it like he's looking for something to do.

She has a smudge on the side of her nose, and her clothes are dusty from head to toe. "Not yet," She says. "At least, no clients yet. But.. Cordy still gets visions, right? I'm sure she'll have a case for us in no time.. I'm just trying to make the place look like we left it." She coughs. "I think Wolfram and Hart put some kind of desertion spell on this place."

"There's a cleaning crew scheduled to come in a few days from now." Angel said. "We need to get it back to code before we can make the renovations we want to make. Such as your lab space."

It was...nice to have money. Even if it was money he scammed out of Wolfram and Hart after that whole Juris mess.
