By the church, Sunday morning

[witchfinder_general]

 The church is finished now, and in Father Harman's keeping.

For that, he's going to hold a special dedication service, never mind who comes and who doesn't. The church is finished, can now properly be dedicated to St. Melchior as intended, and that needs ceremony. If necessary, that can be between Harman and God.

At the moment, he's outside the church, preparing flowers in vases to carry inside. He will be glad for any help, but can do this by himself without any trouble, either.

"No," Harman says. "It's just that nobody who knows about the vampires can be wasted on anything else."

[man_without_fear]

Matt nods to that. It adds another layer to his internal struggle, but that is for dealing with later.

"Does it make it easier, to be a part of a team, as opposed to carrying out your work alone?"

[witchfinder_general]

"Oh yes," Harman says. "I couldn't do a fraction of all the science my colleague angie does."

[man_without_fear]

That's not really what he meant, but Matt doesn't press.

Matt isn't really sure what he's looking for from Harman. Matt's struggled lately with his choices and dual lives, and purpose, but he's hardly prepared to discuss any of it now.

Hearing that Harman had his own mission fighting piqued Matt's interest and made him almost tempted to open up and say more, but as he's done before with his own priest back home and others, Matt backs off. Whatever he might have wanted to say gets pulled back in and he draws away from the opportunity.

"We don't have vampires in my world, but I hope you and your team stays safe in your work against them in yours." Adjusting his hold on his cane, Matt prepares to leave off. "It was nice talking to you, Father."

"I hope to see you again," Harman says, with a friendly smile. "May God bless you, in the meantime."

[man_without_fear]

"Thank you, Father." Matt inclines his head then turns and goes.

He feels guilty for not staying for the service, but maybe next time.

[witchfinder_general]

Yes, maybe next time.

Father Harman just gets back to taking the flowers inside.
