[PQ] I'll Drink to That

Spying Devrum lumbering in was always a rather overwhelming sight and not just because the literal bear of a man was now married to Vai, but always because the alchemist was under the assumption that if push came to shove, the bear wouldn't mind Remi's bird-thighs grilled over a fire. Before he had time to think though, a wolf suddenly came padding in. Without golden cuffs to identify shape changers as such, and without being in his own avian body to create a telepathic link, Remi had no way of telling if this was a sentient wolf, or just the regular sort. Given that it had come all the way into the cellar however without any apparent fear definitely pointed towards it being a shifter though. As the Ashetta 's nose pressed into Vai's hand and her tail swung against his leg, Remi blinked and looked from the black creature up to the huntress. Ashe? he thought almost dumbly, having no real reason to believe that it was the assassin other than the fact that her family was here. Indeed as the wolf snagged half the fish and then suddenly became the familiar raven-haired woman Remi had grown to know, the alchemist exhaled the breath he'd been holding and chuckled. Running a distracted hand through his curls, he held up his palms submissively at Dev's comment. "A good thing I ate before coming here."

There was absolutely no trace of ...anything untoward in his voice, his smile just as boyish and genuine as always. As his job was given to the wolf, Remi glanced towards Vervain and nodded. "Candles and lanterns it is." Shifting his eyes to better see in the darkened room, Remi helped Vai pull out the assortment of candles and lanterns that they found. Blowing one each caused a small cloud of dust to appear, but that wasn't the current problem. Lighting them would be. "Do you see matches? I would assume they would be close by?" Remi mused out loud, opening various cupboards, peering into opened boxes, and checking on top of tables. remi the alchemist
