long shadows

are you really going to talk about timing in times like these?

Instead of raising his hand in greeting or calling out, Remi just glances to where a fire merrily crackles and dinner is being set up with eyes that don't quite look like they understand what they're seeing. Even Sugar's trills can't quite pull his attention entirely, though Remi does tuck Oria closer to his body that the dragonling won't think his new companion is a treat for her to snap up. The spriggan climbs onto his shoulder, standing half on his ear and half in his curls while she peers up at Sugar.

'Come here—' Remi mumbles far too softly as he extends a hand toward Ronin. "Come here. Touch me. I...you need to....I have..." Struggling to find a combination of words that mean I met Mort and please you need to feel the things I do, Remi instead uselessly mutters a number of non-starters as his fingers grasp at the air before him as if that might hasten Ronin to his side.
