I shouldn't laugh, but I know I'm a failure in your eyes
Too late to stop Sugar from shooing away anyone else who wants to use the hot springs making new friends, Ronin winces internally and swims towards the bank and the girl his companion is bothering. "For my sins, she absolutely is," he apologises with a lopsided smile, hefting himself out of the steaming water and sweeping dark, damp hair back out of his face.
"Git," he tells Sugar with an expectant raise of his eyebrows. For his trouble, the Supernova receives an indignant trill from his dragon, but she does soar away towards the canopy of trees where she can judge them in peace. "I hope she didn't bother your... er, griffin?" Tilting his head, he thinks that's what it is. Maybe it's just an ugly cat.
(He's good at spotting those).
