Xavier looked at the untouched breakfast spread again, irritation creeping in, not because of the news, but because everyone was standing around like the room itself might explode. "I'm hungry," he said plainly. "We should eat before this turns into another useless argument."
Rin lost it at that.
He turned toward Xavier, voice sharp and unfiltered, words coming out faster than he probably intended. "Are you serious right now? Did you not just see what was on that screen? There's a bounty out on them. On Reva. On Lyra. On everyone. And you're acting like this is just another morning."
Xavier didn't snap back. He didn't raise his voice or posture himself like he was about to fight. He just looked at Rin properly this time. "I saw it. Every second of it."
"Then why the hell aren't you worried?" Rin shot back. "Do they not matter to you or something?"
