As Mari spoke Reinard was making focused eye contact with her. Part of him wanted to just look away, but that would be rude not to mention incredibly awkward. She didn't know what was going on in his head though. The demon was doing his absolute best to try and find things about her that didn't look like Elena. He was not a delusional demon. Of course she was different person. It would be difficult for him not to see her that way.<br/><br/>Reinard was not expecting her to get so close as to touch him so when he felt her hand brush his arm he flinched away instinctively and crossed his arms a bit awkwardly. He had caught some of what she'd been saying while he was distracted with his own thoughts. Something about wanting to stay with the group. He wasn't sure how good of an idea that was.<br/><br/>"Uh well...It's not really my choice if you can stay or not." He paused a moment before explaining. "I'm still new to this group and we're much smaller now. We need to make decisions based on what's safest and frankly...we don't know you." He spoke in an even tone, his expression rather uncertain. Hearing Liza announce that she and Mari planning to stick around only meant he'd have to put more effort into distancing himself from Mari and those thoughts of Elena. He was sure she was a good person, but he didn't want old feelings mucking things up with a potential new ally. If that's what they were anyway. There was still no way of knowing what their intentions were so he needed to to be on his guard as well.<br/><br/>The demon moved in closer to the rest of the group as well as Liza, his expression now curious. He nodded as Kol asked after their intentions at the camp, equally interested in what business and angel of death had there. Before everything had been destroyed of course. From what he knew of angels like Liza, they were a fickle sort. While they believed in everyone having a time to die, outside of that they were rather unpredictable. Besides, he didn't know how their powers worked. How did they know the time of death unless they themselves were the ones dealing it? If so, who's to say she wasn't on her way to cause harm to them and just got beat to the punch. What was her motive and why was a seemingly normal person like mari traveling with her?  There were just too many unanswered questions.
