Hear those bells ring deep in the soul
Chiming away for a moment
Chiming away for a moment
It's been a couple days since the Tournament, and while Koa knows he should have made this visit sooner, the truth is he's kinda been shitting his pants. Like, what is he even supposed to say?
Hey, remember how I took over an organization you led for a while? Turns out I'm so bad at it I got yeeted into the abyss and let an innocent leader get kidnapped and the whole damn country fall into the hands of a space demon queen! Sorryyyyyyy!
See why he's needed time to workshop? The rough drafts were rough.
But no more dawdling. Today's the day. Koa strides (un) confidently toward the dock where the Northaven is moored, feeling very (un) ready to face his fears. He's wearing a green fleece with his board shorts, his inherent inability to handle cold at war with his need to show as much skin as possible, when possible. Pipsqueak skitters at his side, grumpy with the (she thinks) ridiculous amount of anxiety that's rolling through their bond.
When they spot Ronin at the end of the dock, it's Pip who greets him first, chirping happily as she darts the rest of the way toward the elder Dragoon. Koa follows far more slowly (one might even accuse him of dragging his feet), but manages to muster a wave and a smile for his hero as they approach. "Hey, Comman-- Ronin. It's been a while. Do you, uh, have a minute to talk?"
