sinful sunrise

i've seen fire & i've seen rain.
i've seen sunny days that i thought would never end

Placing his hands in Ronin's—to pull him off the dock, or not to pull him off the dock?—Remi ends up standing. Crumbs rain down, no doubt soon to attract the attention of many hels, but luckily the men are on their way. "Okay, okay!" Chuckling, Remi stretches an arm around Ronin, sliding his fingers into his husband's back pocket. "You have got the job. The flattery can stop."

Trying to occasionally trip Ronin as they walk, stiff-shouldered, Remi looks at their feet silently for a while before finding the words to explain his meeting with Ludo. "I told Ludo about what happened with Nate. At first...it seemed unbothered by how ready I was to kill him. He is an ascended after all...but when I mentioned the war, that you thought I might start it, I..." Frowning, Remi shakes his head slightly. "It seemed...very upset by that."

Biting at the inside of his cheek, Remi glances over his shoulder, eyeing the profile of Ronin's face. Gods but the Star was handsome. "Perhaps the war is farther away than we think. Though...it did say to attend that party in the Wilds." Which seemed a fairly ominous sign in and of itself.
