[Training] Bound by noisy heartbeats

RONIN if there's one thing i'm good at, it's surviving "No need to apologise," Ronin says with a cheery enough smile, and whilst it's been some time since he lived in a region that didn't consist of himself, his husband, dragons and a few alpina, he's still used to people knowing him by name. Until, of course, the young man introduces himself as well, and the Nova's eyes widen a bit. "Jude! Gods, it's been a while, hasn't it? Sorry I didn't recognise you." Relaxing his shoulders and shrugging his offering bag (gently) onto the ground at his feet, he moves back into the doorway of the Aumakua - and if he realises they're both successfully blocking the way now, he doesn't show it. "How have you been? How is your mother?"
