and look for the stars as the sun goes down
each breath that you take has a thunderous sound

Nate. The name makes Amalia's eyes narrow, a low growl vibrating unbidden from her throat. "What did he do now?" She can't say she blames Remi for that particular murderous tendency, though she also can't pinpoint why.
But then they've moved onto the lesser and greater of the Ascended, and though it brings a lump to her throat and fresh pallor to her cheeks Amalia has to nod. "If we took her that might be enough to make the others stand down," she agrees, trying not to think about how desperately she doesn't want to take her one-time mentor. It's part of what's carved such deep hollows in her cheeks, the knowledge that one day it might - will - come to that.
Remi's abrupt change of topic is... Startling, but not unwelcome. Blinking, the Angel turns to fix the Lullaby with a briefly bemused look... Before shrugging, because after all, stranger things and that. So instead of agreeing she simply sends a gust of wind surging toward her friend, while simultaneously summoning a pane of hard glass behind his shins, intending to send the behemoth that is Remi toppling to the ground... Or at least to make him stagger a little.
