"I'm leaving for Cancun, Tadashi, I told you earlier today." Kankri murmured, resting his bags against the door.

"You did, but I still don't know why." The troll frowned slightly, watching as his patron moved about the hive.

Tikore was on the other side of the young Makara, nose crinkled at his moirail. "Neither do I, and I deserve an explanation."
