the tightrope that i'm walking just sways and ties,
the devil as he's talking with those angel's eyes

Were Remi privy to the concerns of his best friend, things would have turned out very differently indeed. But Isla is less than a whisper in the rapidly burning atmosphere, and so it is that the Lullaby moves on to his second victim of the evening.
"What happened to—" The woman wants to know. Feeble and fighting off some infection or other, her presence stirs something in the back of Remi's mind that makes his smile a good deal more sad than it might otherwise have been. "He is fine." Remi interrupts reassuringly as he parts her curtain and takes a seat next to her. "He made it out of the fire. And now it is your turn." Reaching for her hand, his fingers cover her warn and age-spotted skin with a boyish reverence and love unfitting this stranger. "But before we do...tell me...have you any children..?"
So it is that her final moments are spent on a sunny white-stoned patio with a few sticky-fingered children cackling around the woman's ankles. Behind them the sea sparkles beneath a hot sun. "How beautiful they are."
And then she too is gone.
Remi kills patient 2.

THE ALCHEMIST
but i just want to be there when the lightning strikes
& the saints go marching in
& the saints go marching in
