Dia half expects The Beast to rush them the moment the ward falls and he is greatly relieved when that doesn't happen. Instead, The Beast remains where he is sitting. He almost looks like he's waiting for something and after a moment, Dia realizes what it is.

"He's waiting for you to finish the runes you started to put on him before, Bazett," Dia points out. "I will wait here if it will make you more comfortable to have me away until you are done."

"That was the deal, no? I'm not completely unreasonable," The Beast grins wildly. "Just mostly."
