RONIN
Feeling all the more untethered for the stark difference in temperatures all around them, Ronin feels himself clutching at Remi's shirt and has to take a sudden, deep breath to try and calm himself down. With his heart rabbiting in his chest in a way that feels entirely unnecessary, the Nova lets out a slow and shaky sigh before nodding to his husband.
"As if we would ever let each other go off alone, immortal or otherwise," he whispers, trying and failing at a smile. "You were a force to be reckoned with before you were ever a demigod," he reminds him. "And before you were an immortal demigod. And I..." He doesn't want to say it because it feels unfair, but it's part of it.
"Can you decide to just not be a demigod?" he ventures carefully. Safrin has offered it to Ronin more than once, it's true, but he's not sure the same could be said for Ludo.

soft spoken with a broken jaw
we step outside, but not to brawl
