RONIN

the white knight

"I thought so too." Ronin beams at Hadama, only to raise his eyebrows and grin across at his husband as Nova takes his apron literally, the Knight offering his cheek for the kissing. "You are very welcome," he assures her, briefly saluting her with the spatula and letting both sisters go on their way. "Here," he adds to Remi, offering his other cheek, "because I know you'll get jealous otherwise, overqualified as I am."

Accepting his beer and taking a break from being master of the meat to enjoy a long, cold sip of his drink - giving Thalassa ample time to snag what she wants from the grill without him noticing her (or her current purple status) - Ronin scoffs to hear the Bastion's willingness to fight someone just for the insult of Sunjata being able to step into his place.

"No chance," he assures the other man, leaning in to snatch a bite of the meat he's skewered with a claw, chasing it with another drink of beer. Raising it in a cheers and taking a second to snag a chicken wing and a handful of tempura shrimp, he rumbles a laugh at the idea of dinner and a show. "Just make sure it's somewhere I can see you," he tells Remi. "Or I'll be stuck behind here and I'll miss everything."
