Viktor felt sorrow for her. "I aum zorry to heya zat." He wanted to make her feel better but he honestly didn't know how.

"I'm not seeking pity, angel. I had come to terms with my own mortality and eventual demise."

"...It's like every other night in this city, or in any other city for that matter. I wouldn't know."

If she really had a home, perhaps she could make that comparison. But it had been too long, and she could not afford to be nostalgic. It led to weakness. And weakness got people killed.
Nemo did not reply.

He could sense it on her, that gaurded feeling. "Perhapz I should leave you?" Viktor didn't want to disturb her anymore if she wanted to be left alone.

Nemo bowed when she took the feather, tucking it in the collar of her plate armor.
"Thank you, sir."
She was not a very social creature, that was more of just who she was, who she had become. But... the angel probably was not going to kill her in her sleep. She allowed herself a small smile.

Viktor smiled more. "From vone friend to anozah, you look lovely viz a zmile freaulein." He gave her a small wave and with a push of his foot and a flap of his wings he took off into the night sky, heading back home.

Nemo watched until he was out of sight, leaning back against the statue she had been perched on. Lovely? That was not a word she was often called, and she wasn't entirely sure if it fit her, in all honestly...
But what was there to do? In the end, she was only a single insignificant life.
(keeping this open, for whoever wants to stop in)
