At least ten years younger than you and you're going to try and say that her doing whatever she pleases is somehow a point in your favour?" Flora did whatever she pleased partially due to his and Hotaru's failings as parents, but also because she was in her twenties.

As for warning him off, Remi can only huff out a shaky laugh. "That is about what it comes down to. A man like you doesn't get the if you hurt her you'll be dealing with me speech because a man like you doesn't get someone like her." Straightening again, as with Ronin sometimes that one inch really came in handy, Remi gives his head a shake.

"But just in case you want to argue, tell me how you think this goes. You two figure it out as you said, and then you start coming with her to family dinners? You go to Ronin and ask for her hand in marriage or maybe you decide to skip that step, give her a ring you stole from someone and build a white picket fence around the Ark?" Rolling his eyes, Remi can hardly keep the sneer from his lips.
