I shouldn't laugh, but I know I'm a failure in your eyes
"Mm, well they're literal deities, so if they could cut me a little slack with the reversing-death abilities, that would be really nice," Ronin says with a smile that's more quietly sad than amused, turning his head to sneak a kiss to the pad of Remi's thumb as it brushes along the curve of his jaw. "And I didn't see him either, but something must have happened to get them back on good enough terms to hold a conversation," he mumbles of the captain and their daughter, Ronin letting out a soft sigh.
"Is it bad that I wouldn't care if they did, so long as it knocked some sense into her?" he admits, reluctance lacing through his tone. "Maybe he can do what no one else can. Or maybe she'll throw him overboard too and go flaunt her skyship at The Family." At this point, both seem terrifyingly plausible.
Raising his eyebrows at the Bastion as he spots - and feels - the spark of chaotic warmth blooming in him, Ronin finally lets himself laugh. "I mean, why not? We can fly, you can teleport, we can be channelled, letters always reach us. No one can say we aren't available," he agrees. "Let's do it. An adventure sounds nice after all of this."
The Knight leans in for a much needed kiss, feeling the tension locked in his spine start to ease--
Which is exactly when Vox's broadcast rings, clear as a bell, into his mind.
