You seem responsible enough to keep your magic where your magic should be."[/color] Reisus said begrudgingly as he turned his attention away from Rachel. The comment she'd made about the children and the Kaisoken experiment forced him to hold back a sour expression. He lit another cigarette. The older man did concede that he owed these children something, but his complete trust was something he reserved for very few people. No one alive can say they have it truthfully. For now. He would turn away from the table, leaving a thin, short-lived trail of smoke behind him as he walked over to the kitchen and fetched water from the cooling unit. He'd then pull himself up to sit on one of the counters as he tuned in to the rest of the briefing while washing the taste of smoke down his gullet. The others had fair questions. They covered the big concerns with their own inquiries. [color=bc8dbf][i]So. Kill it if it's a threat, capture it if not..[/i][/color] he released a quiet breath of amusement. [color=bc8dbf][i]A familiar task.[/i][/color] He would hop down from his partial counter-top perch once he thought the questions were through. [color=92278f]"Easy task. I would say I'd go by myself, but I know Moonstrike won't allow that.."[/color] he said as he turned towards the hall where he'd came from, slowly walking towards it. [color=92278f]"But yes...we should all make sure we are rested before engaging our mission."[/color] he punctuated his sentence by drawing the [i]second[/i] cigarette down to the bud, and tossing it into the disposal bin as the door to the hall opened for him with a hiss.
