my heart is yours to break

right now everything you want is wrong
& right now all your dreams are waking up

"I agree." Remi says quietly, but only because his lips are twisting so strongly against the smile that wants to overtake them that it's hard to speak.

Losing the battle, Remi looks down at their feet, unable to hide his blush or the shivery sort of laugh that leaves him. 'I remember once asking if I could kiss you, and you said that we didn't ask each other that." Looking ruffled, and boyish and flustered, Remi's eyes rise for just a moment nervous bashfully dropping again. "But I suppose we do now." Squeezing Ronin's hand, the alchemist gives his head a little shake. "I...really like this."

And he really, really, did.

"Broody and full." Of Cian's, and Amalia's, and Sera's, and Finn's and gods knew who else. Glancing sidelong at Ronin as he corrects himself, Remi rolls his eyes slightly and nods. 'This wouldn't be you thinking you know what's best for me, is it?' Remi wonders softly. It'll take them both time to break bad habits, but at least they're noticing things now. "But you aren't wrong. I do think I've been away from...normalcy for too long. So...what are our options?"
