[i][color=00aeef]Ohhhh man.[/color][/i]

Benjamin Lloyd wasn't a small guy. He wasn't a mountain, but he wasn't small. Not thin, either, he had the build of a guy who'd been swinging a hammer and lifting metal since he was old enough to learn the trade. Even without his Semblance he was stronger than most, even stronger than a fair few people bigger than him. 

Lauren's dad still had a few inches on him, and the guy was [i]big[/i].

If he was an enemy, Ben'd already have been moving. No one got to get the drop on Bastille unanswered. But in the safety of Family Day, and the knowledge that this was her dad, he instead just processed. Anything he'd heard about Sloan got a whole lot more significant in retrospect. And Lauren, good 'ol 'Rena "Neck Snap for the Cap" Negasi, Lorena "Thighs Break The Necks of Guys" Negasi, just got dangled out a window like she didn't weigh a thing.

Wew.

Still, wasn't a time to think about how that fight'd go. His smile came back when he saw the same sheepish look on father and daughter alike, and he met the Negasi patriarch's eyes with a friendly grin when the big man looked at his team in turn. 

[color=00aeef]"We have been, sir, handful that she is. But you know that."[/color] He shared that same grin with Lauren, took a step forward and held out a hand to shake her father's. [color=00aeef]"Best friend I've got, even though it'll go to her head to hear it."[/color]
