how i wonder what you are

the lullaby

How do I learn my dreams to mold
To lay them bare in the morning cold?

Pressing his teeth together with his tongue between them to try and temper his emotions, Remi tries to recall what it was Ronin had said about thinking about things you could see, or touch, or hear in moments like these. Finding it was only making him more frustrating to think of the stars or the silence of the Greatwood, it was with a sigh that the alchemist extracted himself from the lovely scene that Maeve had set up for them.

"I am afraid I will only bring the mood down, from here." He admits, offering the queen a boyish shrug that only makes the lines on his face seem all the darker for the contrast. "Let me know what you need from me." Remi adds, both in relation to her quest as well as finding a way not to have his husband killed.

"Stay as long as you like." He mumbles, though this is more for the trees around them, that they might not harass the Nightshade. With a wave that's little more than a flop of his wrist, Remi disappears into the darkness.

If they're still out there then the chasm grows
For all you know, for all you've known

Code blatently stolen from queen of codes, Sky!
