Wasn't Expecting That

R E M I Rolling his eyes with a chuckle, Remi tried very hard not to follow the ex-captain's actions out of the corner of his eye. "And to think once upon a time you getting stabbed seemed like an exciting afternoon for us." Frowning, Remi paused. He didn't nudge his friend back, but instead studied him thoughtfully for a moment. A cold sort of wave rushed over him when he realized that Ronin was absolutely right. Somewhere along the way the alchemist had grown guarded in a way he never had before. "Well when you put it that way." Remi said with a grin, before throwing his hands up exasperatedly. "I was trapped in an ice cave with an ascended who had weakened himself by the fall. He asked if he could drink from me, and Ronin..." Levelling a stare at his friend, the alchemist shook his head warily and exhaled a steady stream. "I have never felt anything even remotely like that before. Then after the man—his name is Samuel—kissed me. And I kissed him back. But..." A bit helplessly Remi shrugged. "Did I tell you that Edrei said Loren was seeing someone? And that was the reason why he did not want to live with Zariah and Edy?" Rubbing self consciously and a bit woundedly against his biceps, he sighed gently. "I have never had to move on before Ronin. I am not sure I know how it is done." Then, with an awkward crinkling of his nose, he bit the inside of his lip. "And then later nearly the same thing happened with Isla, minus the cave-in and kissing. Apparently when they drink from us, they can gain our powers. We ended up hunting as lions." Shrugging, he fixed his friend with a stare as if to say happy now? despite having left out the part about Isla giving him a blowjob. "Ready for flowerbirth." Remi echoed with a nod. The mention of Northaven made the alchemist pause, but ultimately shrug. "Well Baron Taliesen, I had thought about it in our early days here. But honestly, is it so different here than home? A different kind of wall perhaps but..." Another shrug. "Besides. Do you really think you'd be able to keep a dragon in Northaven? As if Bellamy or one of the royals wouldn't immediately snatch it away?"
