Sure, but don't you think he's already going to have to live the rest of his life with the memory that a girl half his size beat him? Gosh, and every time he looks in the mirror, too! I think that's good enough. I hope he seethes every time he sees it.
[She hands onto Rex as they make it out. She even won't protest all that much if he wants to help her up into the passenger seat of his van.]
Hah. [ He likes that. He even smiles, briefly and gives her the highest praise he is capable of. ] Have I ever mentioned, my mother would have loved you?
[ He does indeed help her into the seat. He might have even under normal circumstances- it's a pretty big step, being made for big burly guys like him. It's a cargo van, after all, a three-seater beast with a divider between the cab and storage behind. The cab is meticulously tidy, no small change in the cupholder or anything like that. If she cares to peek through the little window into the storage, it's pretty clear he lives in there. One side is all bolted down cabinets and a mini-fridge, the other a fixed down desk. His hammock is rolled up and both ends hanging from one hook, but he can unfurl it to go above the desk. ]
Home should be fine. Mythril keeps that place watched so it should be safe.
["Should" being the keyword, but for now it'll be okay. Kaname smiles a little lopsidedly as she buckles up and waits for him to get in on the driver's side.]
You know I think this is the first time I've heard you mention her actually.
[ He blinks a few times, wondering if that's true and it surprises him that it is. She's on his mind so much... but it's been so long since he's had anyone to talk to, it's no wonder he hasn't talked about her before.
He gives Kaname a sideways glance to make sure she's settled in and a glance at her leg. As a worrier extraordinaire, he's concerned for her injury and doubtful of Mythril's ability to care for her. After all, he had to be here today, didn't he?
Still, he starts up and starts heading for her place. ]
Well. She liked people with guts.
[ So does he- which is part of why despite being easily one of the most dangerous people around he's quite happy to let her smack him around. ]
[Kaname stretches her arms over her head and arches her back much like a cat after a nap. It seems she's not too bothered by what just happened, but maybe that's because her coping method is "pretend like it never happened, and pack that trauma away".]
If that's the case I bet she was pretty cool. Were you real close with you mom?

Am I returning you home, or is that compromised?
