i will burn this city down for a diamond in the dust
i will keep you safe and sound when there's no one left to trust

”No, he’s not.” Comes the hissed response, Nate’s eyes narrowed and his face stony. He is painfully aware of the scene this has become, the eyes on them that he had wanted to avoid. A pulse of almost sullen apology waves towards Sunjata, before Nate leans back and pastes his own grin back on, happy to let others take the lead here.
It takes a moment before he really relaxes though, his shoulders dropping as he leans back into Sunjata again, eyes still fixed on the stranger. ”Just a misunderstanding then, huh?” He laughs, without meaning it. At least the familiarity is explained, in a neat, convenient little package.
Things begin to settle again, the dam Kane had brought with him released as he walks away, letting the party flow somewhat normally again. Don’t worry about it. Let’s enjoy the night. Nate turns to lean in and press a kiss against Sunjata’s cheek, absolutely willing to let the moment of stress slip away for the sake of the evening. They can talk about it or not later.
