the baffled king composing hallelujah
"Just one more place, I promise."
Ronin had taken them through the shanty buildings and colourful market stalls of Kaiholo all afternoon; it was nice in some ways, to get off the beach and into real pathways and some semblance of civilisation. After the turbulence of the past few weeks, the Dark Star felt like he needed this, this bustle of life around them, this sensation that there was more than the two of them and their silo of grief.
The sun was high and bright, beating down upon their tanned shoulders, and Ronin walked easily, barefoot and with his shirt billowing in the sea breeze. He strolled with an arm slung casually about Remi's shoulders, an easy love in his eyes as he turned to grin at the alchemist. The place he had in mind was small and simple, boasting trophies from the ocean in the form of magnificent corals and shark teeth.
The purpose of the visit was simple enough - to get something obnoxious for Sunjata's new boxing ring, so he could decorate the place. "What'd you think? A gaudy shell?"
