"A Guardian?" Well, that sounds pretty fitting. Apollo smiles and makes a short, amused noise. "That why you came to rescue me an' my new friends? 'cause you protect royalty? An' the common people too, I guess."

As for Rose's hatred of the Strigoi, Apollo just shrugs at that. She isn't in much of a position to say a whole lot about it, especially since to her, right here in this world filled with dragons and demons and bullshit, they don't seem all too relevant. "Well, guess you gotta find somethin' else to do, seein' how those fucks ain't around to get stabbed in the face by you, huh?"
