RONIN
the white knight
Sidling beneath the silvery dome alongside Remi, Ronin leans against his husband to both offer and take as much comfort as is necessary between them. Lacing an arm around his shoulders and settling at the fringes of the crowd, he nods to those he knows and recognises - merchants, sailors, messengers and families, even a few old veterans from other regions come to settle in Torchline after the war. A similar pulse of pride thrums through their bond as Flora begins speaking, the Knight turning to leave a kiss against Remi's curls, though his head snaps back around to hear the cause of this particular gathering.
Where Remi stiffens and near flinches, Ronin glows, and his husband will feel the way his pulse skips and grows faster at the implication. ...If part of Torchline is safe from The Family, he whispers into his husband's mind, then Flora and Mateo and anyone else will be out of their reach. His meaning, with that, is all too obvious. We can get back into the fight.
