"I feel... strange about it. It's not like when I first found out about her," he says quietly, spider walking his fingers down Remi's back so he can slip his arms around him properly. "She's old enough to say how she feels, and to understand the situation, even though it upsets her. And I think that makes it easier, somehow. Do you know what I mean?" Not having to sugarcoat or put on a face, both things which had proved exhausting for him in the past.
Melting into the bed beneath the weight of his husband and the kiss he lavishes upon him, Ronin draws on every bit of Remi's emotions that he can. He smiles against his lips, unable to help it, adoring the unexpected reassurance from the promise that has stood the test of time. "I am so, so in love with you," he whispers, parting from him at last. "If I had known how head over heels I'd be with you when we first met, I'd have gone to jail for breaking Northaven's rules ten times over."
And, given the time of day and the fact that Remi is blanketing him, the other man will definitely notice how happy Ronin is to see him.
