sometimes love is all that can save us, sometimes love can kill a man
Unhappy at both Loren's tone as well as the compliment, Remi merely flushed as feathers appeared in his curls, continuing to look away.
"Mmmm." The hum was one of vague agreement. New? Probably yes. Then again since Remi had no idea how any of this worked or where it came from, he couldn't say. Perhaps it had always been there and he'd never tugged at it the right way before. "My guess is it has to be real. Just as I cannot replicate the luxere's light with a magical item." He added before hazarding a glance towards Loren. "Only yours are real..in an important sense, anyway." It was strange to hear that Loren didn't know how this part of his magic worked either, and rather than being bolstered by the summoner's similar ignorance, the alchemist simply felt all the more alone and lonely in what he was. There were other hybrids to be sure, but none quite like him. He was alone in his power, without guidance. Loren wasn't the only one to feel a stab of jealousy to see what the alchemist could do; Jigano had as well, and Zariah had merely tried to use him. There was no one, it seemed, who could shepherd him along.
Finding himself still too disheartened to argue, Remi remained silent. Sure Loren stood a better chance than most, but not better than those who were planning on being out. Himself, Amalia, Jigano? There was Kiada as well, not that he knew it yet.
"I doubt we will go out together." Remi said in a low voice. They had different priorities after all; Amalia and Jigano were looking for the lost souls, whereas Remi was looking for the living. "How will they all have a piece of you? If you will not take my amulets?" There was the matter of the ascended having pieces of him, a thought that made Remi instantly feeling nauseous and weak-kneed, but the rest? The civilians?

sometimes love is a soft touch, or a line drawn in the sand
