I swear I still believe but I don't know
Feeling the world both expand endlessly outwards and narrow down to the specific shades of green in his husband's eyes, Ronin is content to drift for as long as time will allow. Breathless, his head tilts to rest against Remi's, a mixture of elation and exhaustion dragging his eyes shut. He's prepared to murmur sweet nothings and to try to make sense of all he's been told, relaxing around the other man, but even as the first of several dozen I love yous prepare to leave his lips, the Bastion is speaking again.
"Hm...?" Brow furrowed softly, he tilts his head to listen to what his husband has to say. And perhaps here is where Mort's endless joy collides somewhat messily with Ronin's bruised and injured soul, because where the news does bring giddy, golden happiness, it's choked in shock.
As if suddenly trapped in a sensory overload, Ronin will have more apologies to make later as he tries to escape from beneath his husband, feeling the breath all but seize in his chest at the sound of their daughter's name. Almost coughing out the sob that's trapped in his throat, the Nova finds himself hunched at the edge of their bed, his head in his hands.
Gods, sorry-- he just about manages, embarrassment slicing through the other tangle of emotions in their bond.
