Sam
Did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
Sam laughed and tried to jump out of the way of the pinecone, glad that he and Remi were at the point that they could make dumb jokes. He had not had much experience of easy friendship or humour, so this seemed like a good thing to have.
Oh. I suppose I can speak to you because I have your powers. Sam actually quite liked that. Having something only he could do with Remi, something to make the other man come back...he did not at all think that Remi or anyone else would ever repeatedly want to see him for just him. It was good to have incentives.
As Remi began to explain the method of jumping Sam felt his fear rising, unsure of what was about to be suggested. When he saw Remi run forward and leap he almost rushed forward to try and catch him, worried he was about to see him become a fluffy bloody mess on the ground, but he grabbed nimbly onto a tree across the way.
Not wanting to disappoint the Alchemist, he tried to clear his mind and run something he found difficult and had to force upon himself, his heart beating hard with excitement and terror as he left from the branch and found himself clinging to the trunk of an opposite tree. Once he had done one it was easier to continue he realised, and soon he was following Remi closely, leaping from branch to branch.
This is-- This is amazing! He practically yelled between their bond, a happy giddy mood capturing his whole being. Who knew raccoons have so much fun?!
