an eye for an eye; a tooth for a tooth
a knife for the ribs
a knife for the ribs
Ronin wouldn't miss this for the world. Ronin, who had felt the sting of Dahlia's talons in a very personal way, who had lived under the yoke of her threats to his family, who had been the one to press the thorn of Vi's Rose into her flesh and strip her of her power; while every part of him wants nothing more than to tear her to shreds, he knows this isn't about him.
So as satisfying it would be to see if he might be able to shake some real emotion into Dorian's infuriatingly neutral expression, he stands quietly by and waits. His feet take him next to Sunjata automatically, though, and firebolts prick the air around him, locked and loaded and ready to cause havoc at the mere suggestion of any fuckery on the part of the Family.
Because whilst he can't touch them with any celestial force, the Reaper is now a different matter.
