See true, see far

i have been quietly standing in the shade

Remi wanted to throw the words back in Ronin’s face, to say, oh, about the only person? as if there were others, but then there were fingers against his back and goosebumps danced out from the epicentre of that touch in a what that felt both paralyzing and freeing. Remi felt himself inhale sharply, flinching away from the stability of the wall and into the contact with surprising balance.

Jolting slightly as Ronin’s other hand smoothed away the feathers, Remi’s inclination to flinch and flee was smoothed away as well. Blushing brilliantly now, eyes roaming from lips to oceanic-blue eyes, Remi inhaled a shaky breath that staggered into a smile. This was ridiculous. This was just...a drunken thing, not unlike when the pair had passed out together just a floor above them with Vanya yelling at them to shut up.

But that was just the thing. This, all of...whatever, was shrouded in memories. Memories that Remi had of Ronin still.

The smile faded, his breathing slowed and then nearly stopped. He thought he said something like alright, but he couldn't be sure, because suddenly he was pulling Ronin towards him with one hand, the other awkwardly curling in front so that it could snake properly around Ronin's waist.
