REMI
Remi’s chuckle is soft and easy as he lifts one shoulder in a small shrug. "The offer still stands." When she speaks again, his expression settles into something warm and reflective. He nods slowly, eyes dipping for a moment before lifting back to her. "In my mind," he admits, voice quieter now, "I had simply assumed those days were behind us, especially after the tensions between us and Flora and Mateo over the last few seasons." His smile turns lopsided as he mentions Ronin, affection weighing it down in the gentlest way. "But when I told him about you.." He exhales, a soft sound of joy and gratitude all at once. "...it felt as though a door we had closed had quietly opened again."
He reaches across the table then, fingers closing around Isla's hand in a careful, affectionate squeeze. "So thank you," he says simply, before laughing and rolling his eyes affectionately. "I have already named one of my children after you. I am not entirely certain what I am meant to do with this next one to properly show my appreciation."
The server arrives with their drinks, and Remi leans back to make room before immediately reaching for his iced tea, condensation already slicking the glass beneath his fingers. He takes a long sip, relief evident, before glancing back at Isla with an amused grimace. "We have built a small fence around it to keep the cows away," he adds, tone brightening again. "And we are watering it with fountain water." Another sip, then a crooked smile. "Much easier work than what you are going through, I am quite sure."

There's a rhyme and reason to the wild outdoors
When the heart of this star-crossed voyager beats in time with yours

Speaks with a thick Italian accent.
Force and magic can be used against Remi without permission.
