The Astartes breathed a sigh of relief, relieved at the suited giant's apparent projectile-alien based distraction. Slowly turning towards the center of the group, he simply stood in silence, watching the argument unfold. It seemed the white-haired boy was finally leaving. Most fortunate. It would be a shame if he had to step in any more than he already had... Curbing anger is not a pleasant experience, after all.
His train of thought interrupted, Tartaros looked down to find a short, smiling girl in a black dress. Judging by that grin, she must have a real cheery demeanor on her. Or crippling psychosis, but that's unlikely.
"Oh...", the man coughed for a moment, "Yes, yes I am.".
The girl's grin widened further as she spoke. "Great! Well, I'm Jade, Jade Harley! But you probably know me better as gardenGnostic. While we're sharing names, what's yours?"
"Tar-", the Astartes paused, there was something he couldn't quite remember. "Tartaros. Just Tartaros."
"Okay "Just Tartaros".", the girl said, as bubbly and enthusiastic as ever, "Welcome aboard, to you and your little friend!"
"About him...", Tartaros said, gesturing towards his puppet companion, who was busy glaring at the recently departed boy, "Please excuse any... harshness he might exhibit, he can't help himself someti-"
The Astartes was interrupted by a gust of wind flowing behind him, and a familiar scowling red figure, gripping a blade.
The question was met with a growl and a quick blow to the arm, knocking the weapon out of the draconian's hand.
"One.", Tartaros responded, in a far harsher voice than before, "Do not ever interrupt me like that. Two. Stop that damned scowling. Three. Do not point that thing at me."
Within moments, the semi-dragon was back on its feet, still snarling. "Now.", Tartaros continued more calmly, with his by his bolter by his side. "Let's start again. Calm and respectfully."
