The meeting itself was short and to the point, which Ren also appreciated. He was a creature of action, and the act of waiting around tended to make him feel antsy. Left to his own devices, he probably would have plugged his ears with some buds, turned the music up loud, and gone in guns blazing. In this case, he deferred to someone who knew what they were doing. Which was odd for him. Renard had a complicated relationship with authority figures. Specifically, he hated them. Blame it on Hillstrom. Blame it on Beatrice. Blame it on Isengrim. The moment someone felt they had a right to bark an order at him (or in some cases, make polite suggestions), he was apt to buck. Except Jesse hadn’t asked for him to show up. He hadn’t given orders. That was the difference. Renard had been the one to demand volunteer to go in. So he couldn’t rightly be a trouble child could he? See. Maturity.
The walkie talkie was hooked to his belt. He had opted for fairly simple garb, orange baseball cap, a black and orange windbreaker. T-shirt. Black jeans. Black and orange high tops. His gun, which was a massive assault rifle, was strapped across his back overtop the sheath for his sword. Of course, he was giving his best impersonation of a mouse. Though he suspected no amount of sneaking was going to help them up ahead, because it looked like the winding tunnels of the Labyrinth were about to narrow to the point where people were about to have to file through in a single line. Possibly even turn on their sides to pass through. Limited mobility. The best place for someone or something to make the drop on them. Renard wasn’t particularly pleased with it, but that was life.
“Babe, let me get around you.” he said as he gripped Beckett’s bicep a moment to pass in front of the other man. Originally, he had been behind the other man. To uh. Watch his lover’s back.
Yeah.
Watch his back. That sounded legit.
But if they were about to walk into a potential zombie trap, he wanted it sprung on him, not Knuckles.
