"Remi."
Vai has come to find the Bastion later in the evening, in one of those little interludes where the stars are in full sparkle overhead, where people have gone to sit and enjoy one another's company after the initial high of reuniting. It isn't her first visit back from Mort's halls to see her son, and odds are high that it won't be her last either, but she was never going to let this party go without bidding him congratulations.
"Come here, you." Reaching for him to wrap him in a close, tight hug, Vai's kisses to Remi's cheeks and forehead are shaped by her smile, and she's laughing quietly as she draws back enough to look up at him. "Ten years," she whispers, scrunching her nose affectionately. "And you and Ronin are still as sickeningly in love as ever. I hope that never, ever changes."
