Through Heaven's Eyes (Open)

Feeling just as unsure about offering physical comfort to Celosia as he had with Phoebe (her nakedness not withstanding), Remi instead kept his distance and merely watched with a genuinely devastated look of sadness. Her apology only caused the alchemist to shake his head wearily, the ghost of a smile tugging at his lips but failing to reach his eyes, which remained unhappy and downcast. "We all felt it." He murmured miserably. Though Cel had been the one to initially go to Phoebe, given the way that his body had reacted and with Frey's coaxing, the red-head wouldn't have remained alone with the blonde for long. It was really only luck that had spared him from that embarrassment and act of betrayal. Cel though, hadn't been so lucky. "That thing..." He mumbled to himself, shaking his head and running a hand through his curls. "I have never felt like that ... not even when..." Trailing off, the alchemist's shoulders shrugged, the implication of his words writ clearly on his face: not even when I had wanted to. The sensations had been incredible, and he would be a liar to say that some part of him didn't miss the intoxicating feeling of sensual bliss even now in the stark silence that had fallen. "Cel.." Remi said after a moment, trailing behind the former-elementalist towards the door. "You....your...fangs?" He managed after a moment, a curious but non-judgemental expression on his face. "Archebold?" Remi added, lowering his voice as if someone around might here. They might be in a new world with new rules, but he had promised to keep her secret, and he would even here. remi I'll whisper your name into the sky
