and I tried to remember how nice it had been
In her excitement to see Remi again, Vai has momentarily forgotten everything about his new magic, caring only about hugging him close and making sure he’s okay. Her relief is vibrant and her love all-encompassing; it’s a familiar feeling, the Lullaby might notice, to how he feels about Aoife even now. ”Good. You’re drinking your whisky with water from now on,” she mumbles, smoothing his curls out of his face so she can grin at him, a shoulder coming up so she can wipe the tears from her cheeks.
”Oh, hush. I’d do it all again in a second if it means you stay well,” Vai tells him, leaning in to kiss his forehead. ”How was the Climb? I almost expected you to come back with a tan,” she says; gods know he hasn’t been able to get out in the sun much when he’s been sick.
