Talen was not expecting a kiss after that incident, and just listened to Riona as she spoke to him. Sighing, he squeezed her hand, and continued down the pathway.

"It's not that I don't want you to defend me... but there are still a lot of people here that are not quite fond of me. I've made peace here enough to where I get the same prices everyone else does, and only get about half the dirty looks and comments that I did when I first came here."

Letting go of her hand, Talen put his arm around her.

"I just don't want you to get in trouble for smacking every person and their brother that throws some sort of Faunus joke my way."

Smiling and rustling Riona's hair, Talen chuckled.

"You may be the better fighter between the two of us, but I'm the one with the cool head."
