he's gonna do a superhero landing

In response to Rhyme's statement about revenge, Valentine nodded once firmly. Inwardly he was nearly giddy with anticipation, but outwardly he presented the chilly calm of a seasoned warrior. He'd thought of little else since Rhythm and Rhyme's return. Perhaps it was to his detriment, but even with Rhythm curled at his side, his thoughts were on the slavers. Valentine hoped that would change once they returned from their mission.

Wait, what? Valentine blinked slowly as he tried to process what Rhyme had said after the bit about revenge. "You...joined Abaven." It took a beat longer for the facts to fully register but when they did his determined expression morphed into deep disappointment. Abaven, in his opinion, was the place where good little boys and girls went to live completely ordinary and unspectacular lives. That one of his own children would choose such an existence saddened him greatly.

He reminded himself that Rhyme shared blood with the Abaven mice. Had he not stressed the importance of family when Rhyme was a boy? And he had no pack or band to offer his son a place in, so it did make sense for him to go there. Still, it stung.

Valentine shook his head and then said scornfully, "Bringing any of them with us is unwise. Old and blind as she is, I'd take your mother over 20 Abaven mice. She, at least, had fight training in Imperium."
