Nox chuckled. "Sage already put us in First Class. He doesn't travel any other way. Perks of being a genius I guess."
A message ran across the land warrior lens he'd put in before he left the house. He hated them, but the glasses were a bit more complicated and harder to explain. Nox read the message from Sage. He'd found some things out. And one of them was the true name of their riding companion. Not that Nox cared. The burns alone said this guy had a past and he though he looked benign enough now Nox was pretty certain that he wasn't a slouch and he was probably a bit more dangerous than he looked right now. His accent was pretty good for a russian. It was impressive.
His comment about Lily made him laugh and his smile was genuine. "Yeah I just found her sitting on the floor someone just left her." He hadn't committed any kidnapping but she wasn't luggage either. The papers were legal. At least as far as anyone could tell. That was the very first thing Sage did when he found out Lily was coming with. Legally she was his. Not biologically but unless someone did a paternity test they'd never know. Legally Lily was his kid. And even though it was barely days old he didn't see like without her now. It was already causing a ruckous in his life. Oriena was sure to throw a fit. Thankfully he had plenty of built in baby sitters.
"You have a preference for window or aisle?" It might matter who got to sit where. There were only three seats and Nox was not about to sit in a fucking window seat. His body shivered at the thought. And he hoped that Lily remained quiet, he didn't want to have to pull upon the power on the plane... which he wouldn't have to if he did it now.
Nox reached into the sludge of the power and wrestled it into submission through the grime. Today it felt stickier and heavier than usual, like the horde was doubling down on keeping him from it. But they were oddly quiet as long as Lily were close -- another reason to keep her so tight against his body. He wove a noise dampening area around himself and Lily in particular. It would keep most people form noticing her crying should she burst into tears before her ears popped.
