The quiet hadn't lasted long. Damar had immediately jumped to fix the situation, while Alex had just exploded. As the situation grew increasingly and unnecessarily tense, so did Ronnie's gut. This wasn't right. This sort of thing shouldn't be happening on their first day. His stomach twisted in on itself as he imagined someone being so upset they left. 

Typically this was something he could handle. Ronnie was typically the first to go after someone who was upset by the group. It was important to him that no one felt like they didn't belong for any reason. But right now? Damar, Eva, Brandon, Alex, and possibly Lance? He just took comfort in the fact that Amelia seemed to be dealing with it fine. She was focusing on other people's troubles over her own. The knot in his stomach loosened a bit and he began to walk after Damar when Kai walked in.

[i]Oh thank God.[/i] At least for now, Damar was in good hands. He waved at Kai, saving his hug for later. Just then he felt a tug on his arm, turning to find it was Penny dragging him along. [i]Rescue mission?[/i] He followed curiously, not entirely sure what she meant. When he saw Brandon, Ronnie understood. He also wasn't surprised to see her stop short, despite her earlier confidence in leading the way. 

[color=ed1c24]"B! What the hell you doing in here?"[/color] he asked as he walked up to Brandon. He paused long enough to take a look at the flowers. [color=ed1c24]"I know what you're thinking. There's enough flowers here to give everyone a beautiful bouquet. But I don't think Elizabeth's gonna like you picking all her flowers."[/color] [i]That was terrible.[/i] He glanced back at Penny, sure she'd give him shit for it later. [color=ed1c24]"Seriously though, you all right man? I know shit got kinda heated just now, but you know it's all good, right B?"[/color] Even as he said the words, his stomach threatened to fold in on itself again. [color=ed1c24]"Some of 'em just got worked up. You know Alex... does that. You know Eva doesn't like being ganged up on."[/color] He shook his head with a chuckle. [color=ed1c24]"Just our friends being themselves, right?"[/color]
