[Training] addicted to pain

ronin A man unwilling to fight for what he wants deserves what he gets Ronin nibbled at the inside of his lip as he waited for Roana to finish her appraisal of him, not quite knowing what to think. From what he knew of his fellow ex-captain, he was in for either a lecture and a half or he was about to get his socks worked off his poor feet, so when she pulled him into a hug he was both surprised and elated. Letting out a soft laugh laced with shock, he hugged her back tightly, unable to wipe the grin off his face. "Well, maybe you'd be so kind as to let me run with you?" he asked. "I've no chance of keeping up, but as long as you don't laugh too hard when you lap me, I'll be alright." Still smiling broadly, he stepped back and gave her shoulders a squeeze. "It's good to be back," he told her warmly. "I heard a few things, about what happened... Thank you. For doing everything that you did."
