RONIN
THE DARK STAR
"I know it all too well," Ronin murmurs, closing his eyes and letting himself merely enjoy the smell of the fire and of Remi, the feel of fur and warmth and cushions against the back of his head. It's all imagined, of course, but that doesn't stop him from relishing it all the same. "Mm...? Of course it's okay with me. I was always planning to bring you something back. And whether or not you use the bone, that man will still be dead." Morbidly pragmatic is apparently how he deals with things these days.
"You could use it as the anchor," he suggests with a grin. It would solve the problem about how to moor the boat as well, that way. If only the conversation could stay this light; alas, Ronin is forced again to open his eyes to the new reality currently growing in Hotaru's belly.
With a deep sigh, Ronin nestles himself closer, as if suddenly there's a monster knocking at their door with his name on it. "I understand," he mumbles. Which isn't the same I like it but it's as close to I accept it as they'll get. His brow furrows, though, at the comparison to Seren. "If it is, it's a subconscious decision. I just... haven't found a good time for it. It's the same reason she hasn't been for dinner just yet. We're always busy either saving or ruining the world a little bit."

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
