it's a long way home

cut up our losses into doable doses

The darkness around Ronin was made all the more perceptible given Remi's eyesight. For anyone else they might simply have blamed back-lighting for the darkened halo around the hunter, but Remi's eyes didn't see the light quite like theirs did. "Apparently you need more riding lessons." The alchemist trilled upwards, the rollarcoaster adrenaline ride settling somewhat and leaving him feeling momentarily giddy in his relief that they were both alright. Standing awkwardly (though feeling his knees wanting very badly to give out), the alchemist was about to say something about what the pair ought to do with the bed of clover and moss Remi had made to catch Ronin with, when the Fallen Star spoke again.

For a long and pathetic moment the smile on Remi's face remained even as the colour drained from his face. "I—" He stammered, lashes fluttering as his lips opened and closed on words that his tongue wasn't capable of forming. "..it was.." An accident? Swallowing down his confusion and straightening slightly, Remi frowned and nodded. Right..well...accident or no, Ronin could have been hurt. Of course his husband was upset about that.

Running a hand sheepishly against the back of his neck, Remi offered Ronin a crooked but apologetic smile. "I am sorry. I should not have dove so fast. Are you alright?" He asked, nodding softly towards the cloud.
