Character of the Season
Frail in body but dangerously quick of mind, Nikandr is the sort of character who proves that curiosity can be just as perilous as any weapon. A necromancer, inventor, and problem-solver with more ambition than self-preservation, Niki approaches the world like a puzzle box begging to be opened, even when what’s inside has teeth. Blunt, dry-witted, fiercely independent, and carrying a history best left partially buried, he has a knack for making even failure feel fascinating. Whether he’s raising the dead, moving across Caido to King's End, or experiencing a hangover for the first time, Nikandr brings a wonderfully strange spark to Caido, and we can’t wait to see what trouble his brilliant mind wanders into next.
Congratulations, Niki!

The way Sam tilted his head up to halt their eye contact made the shininess of his tears all the more obvious. For a moment though, Remi just regarded the ascended. If this—they—could ever work, Remi needed to be able to be honest. Remi needed more in life than just someone to stroke his hair. He needed a partner. And if Sam could not be that, then this complicated tangle of magic and circumstance was not their biggest problem.
"Once I thought I would wait for him forever. I though that is what love meant...that no matter what he did, how or why he left that if I loved him, it would be forever. I still think that sometimes..." Remi admitted, his eyes softly scanning Sam's face knowing that the words couldn't be easy for him to hear. "But...now..." Remi pressed Sam's fingers against his lips again. Not kissing them, just holding them there.
"Please do not leave Sam, that is not what I want either. And I know what you want to hear from me...that I love you too and that everything is fine but ... I can't. And it isn't. But it may be I just..." Remi tried to get Sam to look at him, to communicate as much as possible without saying the wrong thing. But words had never been the alchemist's strong suit, and for all of his honesty he wasn't sure how much was getting through.
"I need time, Sam. For things to be slower."
REMI
Loving you was sunshine, but then it poured & I lost so much more than my senses
'Cause loving you had consequences
