Ronin doesn't particularly like to think about that, though - mostly because he also finds himself hoping that maybe they've settled their score, if that's the case. Instead of dwelling on it, the Star turns his full attention to the fuss being delivered by his husband, a sudden smile creeping across his face. "Are we still playing doctor? Because I think you have breached a lot of medical protocols," he remarks.
Remi makes a very good point about Finn, and though Ronin squirms at the scratchy sensation of stubble on bare skin, he doesn't make much of an attempt to get away. "Huh, that's true," he murmurs. "I'm a saint, then. You're welcome." Obviously jesting, he leans in to kiss the tip of Remi's nose.
Then, sighing out his amusement, he gives thought to the idea that Sunjata might have done this knowingly, in one universe somewhere. "I think it's worse that it was careless," he admits. "He was there when Seren arrived. He knew what it meant - what it did to me, what it made me to Safrin. He saw what happened when I didn't live up to what she expected of me, too. And he put himself right into her hands anyway."
