"What, the sort of hate crime where you hated it, but that's about it?" Ronin asks, his voice tight with badly concealed laughter as if he's been fed this particular line before. Turning to walk backwards on the sand, he waves a stake right back at Remi as they begin the trek up the beach; thanks to their combined knowledge of Torchline and her shores, he practically knows the problem areas by heart at this point.
"And might I remind you," he adds, "that you had just woken up from a nap when I suggested this." Okay, it wasn't so much a suggestion and more Ronin announcing guess what? and now here they are, but whatever. "Besides, you know how much I love all forms of heroic signage." He flutters his eyelashes as if that will help to convince Remi.
Falling to a halt as they reach the first area, Ronin's projection plants the first flag into the sand and pauses to smek a kiss to Remi's cheek, while the real deal sets out a few stakes and starts to coil the rope around them. "That's the spirit!" he trills of the Bastion's reluctant optimism. "And she hasn't mentioned anything specific to me, but I think based on all the nonsense happening at the docks and down by the Fingers that I should probably double down on patrols out that way..."
