ration our tears and sighs

"Ahh yes. Libraries are known for their excellent echoes." Remi agreed. Sitting, he raised a silent brow as he grinned. "You only need a hand from me tonight? My, I am getting off easy." Then with a straight face as he pretended to be thoroughly invested in the wound he added, "Or you are."

Nodding and cleaning the area as best he could without reopening the skin which, despite all odds, seemed to be trying in earnest to clot and knit itself back together, Remi merely fixed Ronin with a boyish look. "I know you have missed your scars, but honestly Ronin." He chastised gently, before wrapping a final layer of cloth around the outside, sealing it with honey and bark scented sap.
