RONIN
THE DARK STAR
"Not to you and I, no," Ronin says, as if that much is obvious, his fingers stroking down the back of Remi's neck while his other arm keeps him pressed close. "But he's one of the Voice's chosen, whether we like it or not." And whilst he didn't matter to them, there would be repercussions if he were to disappear; from the Voice, and also from Sunjata on a more personal level. "Of course you can hate him apart from this war, though. You just can't kill him," he points out.
Though as Remi explains, Ronin can easily understand how his husband had been goaded into such a position. Sighing against the alchemist, he coaxes Remi to look up at him so he can press a gentle kiss against his lips. "He was a fool," he murmurs. "And you ought to be applauded for keeping yourself under control." Ronin will never encourage the Lullaby's murderous tendencies - not on a normal day, anyway - but he will certainly praise the times when he comes out the other side without a body count.

now don’t you lose hope
I swear I never dream that we’re alone
I swear I still believe but I don’t know
