Chapter Text
Gallerian was sitting on the train from the Dark Star Courthouse to his home after just finishing up another trial for someone being accused of kidnapping. After it was declared that he did not kidnap anybody, the defendant was declared innocent.
However, the alleged ‘victim’ was still nowhere to be found. There was lots of concern regarding the missing girl, and even Gallerian pitied her family. Although it made him more excited to go back and see his own.
The train was still moving and it seemed like it wouldn’t stop soon. And Gallerian was beginning to get bored. He looked at his phone and remembered he had installed the (in)famous language learning app Duolingo.
Bored, and needing to continue his streak, Gallerian opened the app and began his Lucifenian lesson.
For now, the sentences were pretty basic. Stuff like “The man and the cat” (L'homme et un chat). It was just memorising the elements of that basic phrase, along with the word boy (garcion).
The train stopped just as soon as the lesson ended. Gallerian hopped off the train and ran to his car, excited to get home.
And when he opened the door, the one to greet him was none other than his favourite person in the world.
“Dad!” Michelle cheered, running up to hug Gallerian. Immediately from that, he forgot all his struggles from his job and could only appreciate what was in front of him.
"Michelle!" Gallerian exclaimed, hugging her back. How did you do on your test!
"I passed! I got a perfect score! Look!"
"I'm so proud of you!"
Gallerian looked over Michelle's paper for Legal Studies. And her response was, perfect. She'd make a good judge. Just like him.
"Mom went out so Bruno made dinner. We were both waiting for you."
