[i]Yes! Dodged that bullet.[/i] Ryan's thoughts were filled with triumph. "Sure. I'm not gong to go shooting everyone up, but if that makes you feel better, as long as you give them back eventually, I'm fine with that." When he heard Acacia's voice, he looked away from Markus and at the stairs where he could see her bunny slippers. [i]Aw, that's kinda cute.[/i] When the bearded man said that Ryan could finally get out of the cramped basement, the young hunter had to hide his excitement. He turned to Acacia and followed her up the steps and out of the basement, quietly singing along to Bad Moon Rising, not knowing the irony in the song choice. "I see the bad moon arising. I see trouble on the way. I see earthquakes and lightning. I see those bad times today," he whispered at a almost inaudible volume.

Nearing the kitchen, Ryan decided to completely ignoring Markus' threat about flirting, and tried to strike up another conversation with the mysterious, and pretty, red haired girl. "Good to finally get out of their, felt like something out of Silence of the Lambs. So, your... uh, whatever he is, called you Ace, right? Pretty strange name for a girl," he said in a teasing tone. "So, what's up with this place? Everyone's been giving me cryptic answers and dodging the question when I asked before." At the sight of food though, he immediately shouted, "Ooh, French toast."
