Kartahn had just felt things settle down a bit as he saw something that immediately pissed him off.
A familiar figure. Speeding up the stairs.
Oh hell no, he wasn't going on ahead of him and leaving him with the stupid committee.
He whirled around immediately, shouting as loud as he could at the boy who was quickly headed up the stairs. "Oh hell no you don't fucking go up there and leave me with these guys! Get your ass back down here and sort this out, Hound. Or do you WANT this chick here to die?" He gestured to Shiori with the tilt of his head to the right.
