REMI

the alchemist

Walk me home in the dead of night,
'Cause I can't be alone with all that's on my mind

Remi half expected to see starlight start to bleed through each wound as the metal was removed. That it didn't wasn't necessarily a comfort, because while the Alchemist knew his husband's body intimately, when it came to his Safrin-given abilities, he was often left quite in the dark.

"I absolutely do plan to. And to keep us both there for a good long while." Even had he known how displeased Vai was with him, Remi would still have expected her to look after Seren just the same, all things considered. For Ronin, if not for him.

Standing and sliding his hand into Ronin's, Remi led them as quietly as he could down the hall to their room. He didn't bother with lights or the curtains, instead just drawing back the sheets with a flourish and waiting for Ronin to lay himself down. Blood would stain the bedding, but Remi could not have cared any less about it. Softly moving to join his husband, the Alchemist propped himself up on elbow, resting his head in his hands, and gazing softly down at the Star. "You're home." He whispered.

So say you'll stay with me tonight.
'Cause there is so much wrong going on outside
