RONIN
kiss your perfect day goodbye
"I think it's safe to assume by now that most things are at least partly our fault when it comes to our children," Ronin concedes, though the words no longer hold the sharp guilt that they would have even a few minutes prior. "Good and bad, I guess," he adds, his smile softening further as he feels Remi's warm hands press more firmly at the small of his back. Not bothering to try and stop the heat that floods his cheeks to hear the Bastion speak of their marriage and the mutual feelings they both still carry, he sneaks a kiss to the corner of his mouth at last and nods in agreement.
"Well, almost all," he murmurs with a smirk. "Though maybe one day someone will pin Mateo down for good." He shrugs, unbothered either way so long as their son is happy.
His lips part to speak further - to wonder at the best time for planning this little outing, perhaps - but before he can make any suggestions, Remi's mouth is back on his and the thought vanishes entirely. Clasping him closer automatically, only the frayed threads of exhaustion and the knowledge of the two tiny forms sleeping nearby keep his hands from wandering further, but every flick of his tongue and press of his fingers betrays what he'd do if the timing were better.
"I love you," he whispers breathlessly when they part. "And that's why I'm going to offer for you to have a nap while I keep rocking the bassinet."
