April the seventeenth. That used to be very nice day in the past- a day where Ragna, Saya, Jin and her foster parent Caelica got together for a picnic, or a trip to the amusement park, or a sightseeing tour- whatever came to mind at the time. April seventeenth was the day that the three siblings arrived at the small church- and for that reason Caelica had been celebrating that day until she died.

Even after her demise, the siblings tried their best to continue with that tradition... with mixed results. This year, their foster parent was alive again, and in good tradition, they would come together peacefully and happily once again.
Theoretically. So far, neither of them had called one another, and Caelica, who had been refusing to leave Ragna`s side for a while now, was still in the dark about this day.

"Heey, Ragna?" The young witch asked, tugging on his sleeve as she peeked into a notebook of his. "Why´s today circled in red? Is it a holiday or something?"
They were just downtown Kagutsuchi, on an early hour shopping tour while they were trying to lay low and stay under the NOLs radar. Ever after they had messed with the NOL this bad and ever since Hakumen destroyed Terumi, things were getting a bit too hot for the Bloodedge in the bigger cities. Kagutsuchi, though, that was a place where even the Ars Magi were chumps and didn´t care too much for him.

It was hard to determine the Grim Reaper's emotions at the moment, this was a day that created mixed emotions for him. Pain, loss, sorrow went hand in hand with happiness and yet the only thing present about the positive emotion would be his gentle eyes as he glanced about. Of course, his traditional scowl held form upon his face as he shoved his hands into his pockets and strolled down the street next to the young mage whom he couldn't seem to shake.

"...Perhaps I should just keep my distance." He muttered to himself, completely missing Caelica's question for a moment. He eventually stirred from his thoughts and glanced over to her once her words had registered properly. "Today is kind of a special day... Consider it a family reunion of sorts." he responded to her, "Saya, Jin....And the Old hag who took care of us. This was a day we always spent together." He still didn't refer to the Nun as Caelica despite having understood the connection after the defeat of Take-mikazuchi. Despite how important this day had once been, times had changed. Saya held the spirit of a goddess of death, Jin was... Difficult and it wasn't exactly easy for him to get around without bounty hunter's jumping on the chance to claim his head.
