► As they neared the group, Ajax waved as Sulteron called out to him, Nyx flicking her ears in greeting to Sulteron and then nodding back politely to Tayeko. She wondered vaguely about him for a moment—Sulteron seemed to be pretty attached to him, and he appeared to be as constant of a companion to her as her own dæmon. Due to the diversion in Nyx’s attention Ajax appeared distracted for a moment, but he quickly pulled both of them back together and once he had reached the others, gave a weirdly formal half-bow, half head bob to the Espeon ‘morph. ”I’ve been well,” he said, sounding rather clipped but also carefully friendly at the same time. He appeared to relax a bit more when they actually started talking about the mission. Good, a plan. ”That sounds like a decent idea—I could almost certainly break the lock,” he said quickly while flexing his pincer, wanting to just bust in and get Connor out as soon as possible. ”I’m with Sky, let’s do it!” He didn’t mention to Sulteron that he couldn’t actually fly that high—Nyx would have to carry him. Still, those were minor details. He briefly turned around to acknowledge the girl Rima had sent—he wasn’t sure if he was going to trust her, but he had seen Rima and didn’t suspect much of her, so he focused on Khera’s words instead of the newcomer. «
► Nyx appeared to be thinking along with the dæmon-less boy, and even though it was clear she did not really trust him, she seemed to enjoy his tactical thinking. ”We haven’t really dealt with security much. Ajax, you’re forgetting though about that girl, Miyu, with the gold Dragonair dæmon. When she was with us, she made a…I can’t explain it, some sort of spiritual lock? There’s no way we could have broken through that, although she seemed friendly enough, and she didn’t betray us. She aside, while I agree that we should be concerned about security, it’s more of the whole ‘getting across the grounds and finding Connor’s room’ that concerns me—once we’ve actually got him and broken out, it doesn’t matter if they see our faces or not—we’ve already been seen by their boss once, they’re probably attempting to track us already anyways. Or at least, Ajax, Sulteron, Mizuki, and Sky. So yes, a diversion would be good, but you can bet if there’s a diversion they’ll go to Connor’s room and take him away or get him under heavier protection as soon as possible. Coordination will be vital. Finally, two people isn’t much manpower, should we meet grunts in the hallways.” She finished her speech, satisfied that all that information was out so everyone would be able to talk about it, and then flicked one of her tails appreciatively in Khera’s direction for bringing the matter up. «
