jolliest bunch of assholes this side of the nuthouse [raid meeting]

Ash had really missed Pongolo and crew but he did NOT miss the pestering. Who taught birds to talk anyway? Sheesh. The bird found him and proceeded to taunt him in a pretty decent rendition of Sparrow's voice. Ashmedai cleaned himself up a bit, threw on his floral shirt- unbuttoned, of course- and set out. As Pongolo had said, Sparrow was already there. He gave Tyr and Sparrow a lopsided grin and settled himself. He was happy to see the two being close family. His kids had surprisingly grown up well and he was proud of that. He felt as if his parenting was mostly done and now he was onto bigger and better things, like whatever this meeting was about, maybe some training, and an eventual retirement. Not that he had told Sparrow or Tyrian, but he felt that stepping down would let some of the new blood rise up and he could retire pretty with some pretty women on a beach somewhere.
