RONIN
Ronin's frown was deep, his expression as stormy as the guard he had once been a part of. Nuzzling his cheek against Sugar, he nodded gently to Remi to show that he understood where he was coming from. That he even supported it, much as he didn't want to admit it. Ronin had not been in any sort of state the last LongNight to understand or appreciate what was happening. But it had been bad. He understood that much now.
"Alright," he conceded at last. "I'll wait for you nearby - and I'll be watching. If it goes awry, I suppose I'll have to have a god's wrath on my head too." The ghost of a smile crossed his face, and he snorted at Remi's touch to his arm. Batting it away, Ronin stepped forward to hug his friend tightly, holding him close enough to cause Sugar to trill her discomfort.
"I love you too, Remi," he murmured, stepping back reluctantly. "I didn't get to do that last time, so you can fuck off if you think I'm missing the opportunity. But you'll be alright. We'll make sure of it." Taking a long breath in and out, Ronin retreated to one of the Temple seats, murmuring quietly to the dragonling around his neck.
