Remi offers a brief, appreciative smile as Sunjata accepts his apology, the gesture genuine in its quiet weight. To Sah, he nods a warm greeting, but doesn’t interrupt. His fingers toy absently with the rim of his glass, though his attention is firmly fixed on Ronin as the Knight speaks. Pride flickers through the bond—not the blinding kind, but the steady, burning sort that anchors in his chest and radiates outward, threaded with affection and a trace of protectiveness that’s hard to miss.
When Ronin finishes and lays the relics on the table, Remi lets out a quiet breath and finally speaks.
It would make me feel better, too, to go after Dahlia, he says, voice low but resolute. Especially after what Vox said—about her changing her strategy. She’s the easiest of them to find, and if we’re careful, the one we might actually take without losing anyone. There’s no bravado in the statement, only cold logic—she’s a known quantity, and the clock is ticking. I can also stand guard over the jail, if and when she is placed inside of it.

I got a feeling inside that I can't domesticate
It doesn't wanna live in a cage,
A feeling that I can't housebreak

Speaks with a thick Italian accent.
Force and magic can be used against Remi without permission.
