[SWE] Festival of Lights

Golden levity is not the flavour of the week for Ronin in this season, alas, and as he lands alongside his husband, he doesn't dismiss the leathery dragon wings on his shoulders, instead stretching one possessively around Remi. It isn't selfish, he murmurs, finally releasing the other man for no other reason than so he can hang his lantern. Ronin does the same on a stalk nearby; freshly touched up, Aoife's lantern still looks well-loved, but as he lights it, he's filled with a prang of grief that's as fresh as if the lantern had been made yesterday. Come on, he suggests, curling an arm around Remi's waist so they can drop back to stand and watch. As they go, he offers a gentle smile to Flora and a wave to Mateo, before finding an outcrop of stone to sit upon. Ronin completed his lantern for Aoife in {se} top of the world RONIN Darkness is a funny thing. It creeps up on you.
