it does not bother me to say this isn't love
'Of course you are.' You sing back, words filled with skeptically saccharine. No way does Ronin possess an artists soul or talent. It would be too much: the impossibly handsome face, the godly physique, the godlyness of him, the charm..and, technically, he was a healer too. So no, he just couldn't be an artist as well. "Well, there's plenty of paper and charcoal around if using your blood on the stones and helpful doctors becomes too arduous for you."
Glancing down, it's a bit hard to see the markings through the smattering of blood that covers him. "I see you've taken some artistic liberties here." You note with a smirk, as if the blood splatter is meant to approximate extra stars. "Taking out a skyboat would probably work as well as any observatory. I'm not all that familiar with the rest of the world though...Finn would be. He's the man you helped me rescue from the volcano, and our top researcher. He'd know where such things are."
You find it strange how easily this man is able to slip from golden flirtation to a completely believable longing for his partner. Were you Falke you might make more of it, but you simply give a mental shrug and get on with your work.
"Okay. I'm ready to pull you off of this thing. Do I need to give you some wood to bite down on, or will you be alright?"
