REMI
the alchemist
Walk me home in the dead of night,
'Cause I can't be alone with all that's on my mind
'Cause I can't be alone with all that's on my mind
For a long while the Alchemist said nothing. There was much to wrestle with, least of all Vai's logic. But through it all, the cornerstone and undercurrent were a pair of blue eyes that Remi couldn't imagine going a second longer without seeing. LongNight was not over, and as Vai stood, offering her hand with a look of exasperated patience on her face, the Alchemist knew he could wait no longer.
True, he could die, leaving Ronin alone. True, he'd said he would stay here. True, it was about Aoife and not Vanya, was more about Safrin's manipulations than Ronin's heroism, but fuck it all. Remi needed Ronin more in that moment than he could properly express. He'd have moved mountains, parted the seas if that's what it took, only..it didn't. All it took was diving into the darkness and facing the monsters.
And for Ronin, Remi would. Again and again, against better judgement and good reasons, he would go.
And so he did.
Letting Vai help him to his feet, the Alchemist smiled softly down at her for a moment. "Watch over Seren. I love you." The words were said without thought and yet full of meaning. And no sooner had they left his lips than Remi moved easily around the witch and towards the portal. If he wasn't stopped, he'd disappear though with his husband's name bright on his lips.

So say you'll stay with me tonight.
