arms give away your need
Dragging a knee up to prop one of his arms upon it, Ronin is careful not to reach for his husband's bare skin, so Remi's avoidance of his touch at least doesn't seem out of the ordinary. The Knight doesn't want to feel the things he feels right now, let alone inject them into the person he loves the most. "I think coming to Caido in general was a curse at this point," he mutters through a tired sigh; unfair, given all the things they've gained, including each other, but such is the black hole of grief.
Shaking his head sadly, even his notorious temper has snuffed itself out before it had a chance to so much as flare. "...I don't know what I'm supposed to do now," he admits in a voice that barely goes beyond a whisper. "After Aoife, I didn't know how we were supposed to carry on. We found a way... it took years, and we've never been the same, but we found one. I just... I don't know if I'm strong enough to do this again, Remi." The admission is small, nearly under his breath, but the pain in his eyes is louder than any scream.
