Huffing out a laugh of agreement more than anything, Ronin tilts his glass to Tobi and takes another sip of wine. "Listen, it could have been worse. At least he asked us rather than someone else," he points out. A stranger or even a teacher and it might have gone a lot more sideways than it did with Ronin.
Relaxing against the counter, the Huntsman rolls his shoulder in a shrug. "If it helps, while Mateo doesn't ask as many questions, he has repeatedly caught Remi and I in a lot of compromising positions. Talking is more and less awkward."
And while he notices the minor falter in her expression, Ronin's smile remains nothing but warm. "He's perfectly polite," he assures her. "And in truth, most of his questions are directed at Mateo. And that kid has an answer for everything, if you haven't noticed."
