this love's too good to last
Ronin smiles sheepishly, rolling his glass between his hands and shaking his head. "No new powers like that," he says with a soft laugh. "No, it's just that I've noticed that anyone who ends up in Stormbreak because of the gods aren't exactly run of the mill. Me, Remi, Amalia... we've only been missing a Frey until now." He winks. It's not easy to be playful about something like this, but he does his best. "And I remember that you have been close with them for some time. Congratulations to you."
Nodding as Phoebe speaks of the order, he lifts his glass to his lips again. "That does seem to be the way yeah," he agrees. "There's a war coming and everyone is starting to notice. It's like a party you really didn't want to be invited to," he says.
Luckily, the Nightingale knows just how to pull his head out of the stormclouds, and Ronin simultaneously brightens and relaxes as they speak about his family. "No," he says softly, still sounding a little awed by it. "He's all ours. He came out of a dream - don't ask me how it works. Some deal with Ludo, some magic between Remi and I. His name is Mateo - he'd probably love you to pieces."
