It was so perfectly ordinary, to sit on a stool at the bar in the Rathskeller and just... enjoy himself. Ronin almost felt like an imposter sitting there, glancing around at the soft lights and the murmur of conversation. The last time he had been here properly was LongNight, and his heart still ached for the broken man he had been back then. Had it been that grief which had led him to get so close to the Spire demon, which had caused his untimely end? ronypony it's always nice to make an impression |

everything has its wonders Having been watching Sugar get settled up in the rafters, Wessex sitting next to him and speaking up so abruptly was something of a surprise, and Ronin was unable to hide the way he jolted a little as he glanced to the side. Remembering the Ascended from when she had interrupted her own death notice, he let a playful grin spread across his face, tipping his drink to her in a cheers of greeting. "So weird," he said casually, taking a long sip of his drink. "Being dead was alright, though. I was on a beach with my lady, and we sailed a sea of stars. What was it like for you?" Because what he had learned since his return suggested that he was the exception rather than the rule when it came to becoming a star and all. even darkness and silence

everything has its wonders "I think I may have been given special treatment, granted," Ronin said warmly, unable not to detect the note of envy in her tone. "I daresay if I hadn't become a star I'd have just been another soul on its way to the afterlife." He shrugged his shoulders. Either way, it had certainly suited him. Sipping at his drink again, he arched an eyebrow at Wessex over the rim of his glass, surprised to hear that her death had been so... well. Instant. And then not again. "Just a tune?" he echoed, shaking his head. "That's very strange. You think you could remember it? If you played it for someone, perhaps they could tell you where it came from." An odd suggestion, certainly, but Ronin was full of them. As she asked how he felt he let out a quiet laugh, shrugging his shoulders to her. "Weak as a kitten. This isn't the body I died in, I'm pretty sure. And things feel different, in certain ways. I feel as though I can always see the stars, even indoors." Which sounded ridiculous, and he knew it. even darkness and silence

everything has its wonders "Isn't there always," Ronin agreed with a quiet smile, nodding to her and setting his glass down so he could run a finger around the rim of it. Still, what Wessex spoke about was certainly interesting, and it might merit further investigation in the future especially if it seemed as though her resurrection was something designed by the Voice rather than the old gods. Ronin scoffed at her offhand comment, a broad grin flashing across his face; Wessex was very brash indeed, and that was absolutely something that the guildmaster could appreciate. "A little bit like lightning, huh?" he echoed, itching at the scruff on his chin. "When I went to visit Safrin, she called me something similar. Not human, but definitely not a god. I suppose somewhere in between. The word demi-god has been thrown about, but I'm not sure I believe that." Lifting his glass to down the rest of his drink, Ronin tilted the empty towards Wessex in a sort of 'cheers' gesture. "So what have you been up to, since returning to life?" even darkness and silence

everything has its wonders "No pressure, if it's true." Ronin laughed softly, punctuating his comment with a healthy sip of his drink. He'd done responsibility before, and no doubt he would paint himself into a corner where he would do it again, but right now the ex-captain just felt as though he was finding his feet. Falling back into life like a baby bird from the nest, it wasn't easy to come to terms with breathing, let alone what he'd come back as. Setting his mug down, Ronin shifted on his seat and cast a sidelong look at "I have heard since I returned that the Voice was the one responsible for bringing Outlanders to Caido," he said slowly. "You would have thought that she would be the one interested in them... What I suppose I am saying, is that the only person who can answer you is a god. Certainly not me." even darkness and silence

everything has its wonders "That doesn't sound particularly nice. I mean... have you ever tried? To ask them, I mean." The threat of being burned alive would be enough to discourage anyone from the attempt, but Ronin couldn't help but wonder whether Wessex was talking from experience. Drumming his fingers gently along the side of his cup, the hunter sighed and let the subject drop (or not, depending on what his companion had to say about the matter). Smiling softly at her question - and mentally backflipping to deal with the sudden change from intense to carefree, Ronin had drunk enough, at least, to be able to cope with the transition fairly well. He gave her words the merit they deserved, thinking hard about his response. Eventually, he glanced back at her. "Well, my daughter comes before everything," he said simply. "But I'd also... I don't know. Leave the world better than when I found it? That sounds tacky." even darkness and silence

everything has its wonders "Ah," Ronin said, for what more can one say to an answer like that? Wessex had proven that his optimism about the Old Gods and the Ascended was somewhat misplaced, but even so... he still liked the woman. He had no reason not to, and she was straight to the point - a trait which Ronin held in high regard. He couldn't help but smile at her comment about 'good parents, feeling somewhat warmed by the assumption that her words meant he was included in that list. Instead Ronin nodded, necking back the rest of his drink and turning to face the Ascended. "Want to hunt monsters with me for a living?" he asked suddenly, baring his teeth in a grin. even darkness and silence
