what baking can do

the lullaby

And you should know,
I left but never lost my place

"Something like that. Or even just...asking her to smite me down, maybe." Remi shrugs at this, though the idea has crossed his mind more than once. That Amalia doesn't know about Hotaru...about what had happened, has the alchemist grimacing slightly as colour blooms in his cheeks. She's probably one of the only people not to know—though why would she?—and Remi finds he's suddenly very reluctant to say the words he's had to say so many times already. "She...I was leaving an offering for Frey, as part of a task for Ludo. She came too, for her own quest, and..." Vaguely, he gives his head a shake, sighing heavily. "She is pregnant now. And it is mine." Surely Amalia can fill in the details of the hows and the why it complicates things with Nate.

Ruffling a hand through his curls, Remi glides forward and lands. "You pack quite a punch." He chuckles, obviously more impressed than he is wounded.

and these nights I miss you most
my heart is yours to break

Code blatently stolen from queen of codes, Sky!
