RONIN
”Oh I see,” Ronin almost purrs with delight, grinning at his husband and gazing down at himself as if with fresh eyes. ”Perhaps I’ll have to see if the government of Torchline should adapt a certain manner of dressing. I would hate to deprive you of the joy of stripping me every night.” He laughs, and it’s not just because of their teasing. It’s a freedom, a release of tightly held worry, to hear his husband sound more like himself.
He smiles gently, reaching out to brush Remi’s curls out of his face; distantly, music begins to play (to no one’s surprise - Ronin is practically a kid with ADHD and he’s in a literal dreamland). ”If it’s me, then it doesn’t matter how I got here. I’m the one who snuck in, to find you,” he reminds Remi.
Still, his eyebrows raise in charming surprise to hear that the uniform he’s wearing doesn’t usually stay on for very long - more so as he realises that Remi was trying to get it to disappear earlier, with his focused interest on his shoulder. ”Oh, you mean like this?” He grins, and with a shrug of his shoulders his clothes simply flutter away into white feathers, scattering to the breeze and landing on the glassy surface of the lake beneath them.
