Ronin Taliesin
but they haven't seen the best of me
Shifting automatically to sit close enough to his husband to wind an arm around him, the movement automatic and a comfort for them both rather than just for the Bastion, Ronin listens intently as Deimos relays the full story. He lets his words fill in blanks left by the half-stories he'd heard around Torchline, and like Remi, the flicker of frustration burns low like a fire that has never quite gone out, but hasn't enough fuel to properly rekindle.
It is getting more and more difficult to make myself stay on the sidelines, even knowing the consequences, he agrees, the guilt heavy in his tone, because he knows exactly what those consequences will be - and always for Flora, regardless of which direction it goes.
Raising his eyebrow as he feels Remi glance up at him, the silent question is like an itch he finds impossible not to scratch; gods but there's nothing Ronin wants more than to dive into the fray again and feel useful, and they all know it. If we do decide to risk joining you, we'd have to speak to Flora first. It's her life that we'd be endangering, though she's no pushover these days herself.
As for whether they'd be useful, the Knight's brow furrows. I spoke to Vi recently, to try and put more power into Emmett's Axe. He suggested that perhaps there's something new within me I've been overlooking. Some ability or magic, I imagine. He's not had the opportunity to really explore it, though.
