I can't control their fear, only my own.
Zavien nearly melted at Erebos's attempted wink, heart skipping a beat. Chuckling, he nodded to Deimos. "This one is going to be a heartbreaker for sure." And as Koa joined them, the Dragoon tried to keep the lighter tone despite the serious topic. Patting his pocket and the paper within, he gave a smile weighted with plans of a future secret rendezvous (without a certain purple leader). "Thanks to Deimos, it seems we have a lot to discuss." His eyes flit to Lena nearby, including her in the intentions and remembering their purpose for being there along with the lanterns in his hands.
"I'm glad things were successful, and it's been a pleasure meeting your son, but I better get these hung before the ceremony." He lifted the two lanterns for emphasis. Smiling warmly at Deimos, he reached out a hand once more. "Thank you again, and please don't hesitate to reach out. You're not alone." When Zavien stepped away, he lifted an eyebrow to Koa as if to ask 'Want to join?' because although he may be immersed in hidden schemes, he couldn't forget the fact that his friend's recently resurrected ex was mingling nearby. Perhaps tagging along with him and Lena would help keep him distracted.
Leaving the invitation open, Zavien made his way back to his date, linking his arm back in hers and stealing a bite of one of the sweet rolls. He smiled around the food as he chewed. "Hmmm... Where were we?"
