RONIN
"Hey, I'll have you know I was a baron," Ronin said, tightening his accent and lifting his chin defiantly, though the twinkle in his eyes and the smile that threatened on his lips told the truth of the matter. "Though I daresay that has little to do with asses." He grinned, unable to hold it in for long. He thought little of Remi sinking down to sit beside him - that in itself was evidence of how much he had gotten used to the alchemist's presence.
While Remi stared up into the sun, Ronin's eyes remained level, watching those wandering through the streets or sitting in the shade to hide from the heat. And when his friend finally spoke, it was with a decision that surprised no one more than the hunter. Ronin raised an eyebrow, though selfishly he did find his shoulders relaxing a touch.
"Okay," he said gently, nodding and rising to his feet again to smile down at Remi. "Then let's go home, yeah?"
