Nox shook his head at the girl. Showoff. He snorted mentally, and shot into an alleyway. He lept over the fence, landing on the other side with a roll. Coming up, he had just cut the distance down by a large margine, which showed as he stepped out and was right beside his home. Nixia crossed around right as he leaned beside the front door, waiting for her.

The bar was a well known and respected establishment, run by one of Nox's few friends. Cobalt, no last name. The man was the bartender at the Club/Bar, and ex-military. So, he kept order in the place with some other veterans, and a tri-barreled semi automatic shotgun. Very few things could unnerve or make Nox back down, but Cobalt was one of them. The screech of tires alerted him to his partners prescance.

"Too much flair." His tone was faintly, ever so faintly amused. Otherwise, it was as flat as his facial expression. Without waiting for her, Nox walked into Aurora, nodding to the man attending the bar. He headed straight for the back, where stairs led up to the second level. Once he got to the first step, he turned to face his ebon-haired companion.

"You're staying here." He told her bluntly. There was no way he was letting someone else, especially another mercenary into his house. While there were unspoked rules, several people broke them. And Nox didn't know her well enough to let her in, let alone trust her. After all, trust got him inked and scarred. He wasn't going to let someone do that to his little brother. The merc began to climb the stairs. He knew he was being abraisive and rude, especially since she's his partner, someone who would watch his back.

He honestly didn't care. If it endangered Umbra, it was out of the question. Until he walked in the door, and  a bolt of green flashed out and down the stairs, stopping right before Nixia.

"Nixia! Oh, my chrome goddess, where have you been!" Umbra practically squeeled. Nox sighed and facepalmed, quickly gathering his cold weather gear and getting down the steps before she could hurt his moronic little brother.

Fucking shoot me.
