"Of course." Ryker continues. He squints at the fins on the sides of your head, glancing at Sam, who clears her throat quietly. "Those are new."
Ryker releases your hand and laughs. He scrunches his face up a little bit and flaps the fins on the sides of his head. "Fun, aren't they?"
Parker and Rigel both step down the stairs and hug Sebastian, in turn. The newly arrived ancestor glances between the other three worriedly. "Where's Etoile...?"
Parker opens his mouth to explain her absence, both to Sebastian and Rigel, but he never gets the chance.
"Ryker, meet Quin! Quin, this is Ryker, asshole extraordinaire." He wastes no time in extending a hand for you to shake. "Welcome aboard!"
I look back and forth between the two that have just exited the ship, before moving a bit closer to where Cole is standing. Last time I saw him was. Well it wasn’t that long ago, but these are much better circumstances. I look at him for a second, raising my eyebrows, before turning back to the commotion at the bottom of the stairs. I do notice the Baroness’s insignia on Sebastian’s shirt, and narrow my eyes a bit, I don’t like the looks of that.
