RONIN
the dark star
Ronin offers a cool look to Remi in response to his snapping teeth; an expression that bleeds right back into warmth and love as he obnoxiously tousles his curls instead. There's nothing in response to the Lullaby's call, and another falling leaf falls and lands in Ronin's hair. Yet more silence follows in the wake of Remi's attempts to antagonise and call out, and the Star presses onwards for a few more steps, rocking Mateo gently in his arms and peering around tree trunks.
"They were definitely here, weren't they?" He glances back over his shoulder at his partner, raising his eyebrows in surprise. "You saw them too?" It's useless trying to call for them again - if they were going to show up by now, they would have, and the Star suppresses a bit of hurt that the Flood and his husband haven't come to say hello. "Maybe they were busy..."
