He can’t pass the little mongrels off fast enough. It turns into a game of hot potato, each leash thrust into her arms quick enough to keep her too busy to fuss or fiddle. The dogs, accustomed to crowding around her and each other, settle well enough now that they have some wiggle room. When it’s finally over, Kaisel wipes his hands on his pants with exaggerated finality, huffing out a long sigh as he sends her off with a curt little wave.
He glances over at Ronin with a lopsided, worn smile at the compliment. "Thanks for your help. I'm more of a cat dad," he says, rubbing at the spot under his jaw with a rueful twist of his mouth. "Yeah, I am. That was the last ship." Now that all the chaos has passed, his legs feel unsteady, and he quickly reaches for something solid—finding a post along the walkway to sag against.
"It wasn’t as bad as last time," he mutters. "Less dead, from what we can tell. Just... all homeless." He frowns, rubbing the side of his tired face. "Wish I’d finished my quest with Safrin. Could’ve had something useful to wield against them, then." Rationality left a while ago. Now he’s just stewing—nursing some half-formed, ill-advised desire for vengeance, to hurt them back.
