*Nadir easily found his way down through the cellars to Erik's lair, with Shadi close behind him.*
"Erik?" *he called out.*

*Erik sighed. Was there no peace? He hadn't even had time to figure out where he was or whether he had a body. Looked like he did. Neat.
He threw open the door for Nadir--there was really no point in attempting to hide from that busybody of a Persian--but was surprised to see the girl there, too.*
"How nice to see you. Both," *he said, with only the inkling of a clue he was in trouble.*

*Nadir gave Erik an inkling. Right in the face, too.*

*Surprised, Erik's head snapped back.*
"Damn you!" *he cried.* "In the heat of the moment I understand, but this is your opening salvo? STOP GIGGLING!" *he hurled at Shadi. He stalked into his house, leaving the door open and with one eye cast back over his shoulder at Nadir.*
"What did Erik do this time?" *he said, turning back around and raising his arms defensively.* "Erik hasn't touched the girl in months."

"But you TOUCHED her just the same! In violence and against her will!" *snarled Nadir, following.*

*Erik threw up his hands.*
"Didn't we have this fight already?"
*Because Erik never, ever, held a grudge.*
"What's she even doing here?"

"Watching my daddy kick your ass," *she said.* "Because it so deserves it."

*Nadir grabbed Erik by the collar in both hands, shaking him lightly.*
"You think you can escape what you did to my baby girl?" *he growled.*

*Erik shook himself free, glowering at Nadir, his face cast in some halfway point between his new and old selves.*
"Apparently not! But what would you have Erik do, hmm? Unman himself in atonement? He did no more to her than she's doing herself with that Limey dilettante she lives with now. And he had apologized."

"And you believe repentance is enough? You should never have touched her in the first place!" *he spat.*

"What do you want Erik to do?" *he asked exasperatedly.* "You!" *He pointed at Shadi.* "What do you want from Erik, hmm?"
*The girl frowned.*
"For you to be less of a dick!" *she said unspecifically.*

*Nadir sighed.*
"The honourable thing to do would be for you to marry her, but Lord knows how many you have imposed upon in a similar manner--and you're hardly cut out for bigamy. And I would not subject my daughter to you again."

*Shadi crossed her arms so hard it hurt.*
"What?" *she shrieked at both of them.* "You can't just give me away. It's bad enough I was married to you. Like I need another husband running off to screw some creepy blond guy."
*Erik, for his part, was glaring hurtfully at Nadir.*
"Subject? I was under the impression you appreciated Erik's sexual prowess."
*Shadi wished she could explode in a bloody mess all over both of them. That would show them.*
"OH MY GOD!" *she shouted.*

*Not being well-versed in the language of teenage girl, Nadir turned and blinked at his daughter.*
"What?"

"TOO MUCH INFORMATION!" *she supplied.* "What is wrong with you people? You're all sleeping with each other and having ass-babies and you get concerned when your little girl--who you didn't even know about until like a year ago and who's been living on the streets--gets done by your supposed friend? Let me tell you: not half as damaging as the time my actual lover got taken over by an evil replica of himself and used me for sex while the real one had to watch from a painting hanging over the bed."
*She cocked her head.*
"Too much information?"
