the lullaby
"I just...life is too short." Remi murmurs with a soft shrug. As Isla looks away, Remi sips in more of her, his eyes gulping down every inch of her that he'd been too careless not to memorize sooner.
Grinning boyishly, the Lullaby nods emphatically as he too looks at Isla's hands. 'Does being an Ancient let you partially shift?' He wonders, staring at her fingertips where once scalpels pushed through, wondering if they'd been replaced by claws. Does it let you hear this? He asks silently, though given he couldn't feel any sort of attuned bond between them, Remi didn't think so.
"Ahh well, you only say that because you have not seen where I actually live." The Lullaby counters, head tilted slyly. "It is quite beautiful but very deadly." He adds, sounding proud of this fact as if he had anything at all to do with it. "Achh-" Remi frowns, giving his head a firm shake. "As if you would ever let an island get the best of you." But then, because life wasn't always sunshine and butterflies, the Lullaby's expression smoothes out something much softer as he gives Isla's shoulder a gentle nudge with his wing.
"What happened in King's End?" He asks delicately, knowing based purely on the gossip he'd heard when looking for Isla that something must have happened. "When I was there looking for you...I only heard that you'd left the..." Remi frowns, not quite able to recall what Sunjata's brothel was called. "..the brothel." He finishes with the sort of shrug that suggests he doesn't care to think too hard about reaching for the right name.

You trace my lines, stirring my soul
shoot sparks at the heart of the world
& I watch it explode
shoot sparks at the heart of the world
& I watch it explode
Speaks with a thick Italian accent.
Force and magic can be used against Remi without permission.
