See yourself through my eyes

Had Remi been the revenge-seeking or grudge-holding kind, this likely would have been the perfect moment to thrust a wedge between Sam and Jigano. Jigano did. Do you know he all but said I should stay away from you? But, no matter what the bard thought, Remi wasn't anything of the sort, and so he merely smiled softly and shook his head. "Someone who...I think was trying to be helpful." The alchemist said, choosing his words carefully, but then shrugging it off rather carelessly. With a chuckle Remi watched as Sam averted his gaze. "Well one of us is naked, so I suppose we are not too far off the mark." He said lightly. Remi had meant the question playfully of course, but given that Remi knew Sam didn't have any experience in this particular field, perhaps the question was a bit unfair.  Smiling at the non-answer, Remi let his head sink gratefully into the pillow before, leaning towards Sam enough that...well, if the man had been breathing, Remi would have felt it. The ascended's question was...in the big scheme of things not so surprising. Though given Remi's history something in the words made him shiver a little. If he had had the courage to ask this of Loren, instead of just blurting out that he loved him, would he have at least said goodbye? Swallowing, Remi shifted as much as he could, which was to say hardly at all. The only way to be closer to Sam was to put pressure on his ribs which was hardly an option, no matter how determined he was. Pulling the hand in Sam's across his torso to try and draw Sam closer, Remi leaned forward as much as his healing body would allow to try and press their lips together. Unlike the kiss in the cave, Remi would not allow this to be hasty or rushed. No frantic pawing, instead would try to elongate the sensation of their lips brushing and then pressing together. He could not hold Sam the way he normally would have, but the hand wrapped around his closed more firmly, his thumb stroking the side of Sam's hand. For all his good intentions though, heat flushed his cheeks and Remi found himself inhaling a surprised breath - surprised because despite the pain spider-webbing through him, there was something else there now as well. Something good. Something that cried out for more. Reclining slightly and letting out a muffled breath, Remi shrugged ever so slightly. "I do not know." He whispered, though there was a smile on his lips as he searched Sam's pale blue gaze. remi I always forget that you can't read my mind
