the lullaby

i don't want the world to see me,
because I don't think they'd understand

Turning to appraise the small clearing that the pair have managed to create, Remi rubs at his nose considerately before nodding. "I agree." He concurs helpfully, stiffling the urge to strip off his sweaty clothes if only because he knew what a terrible idea it would be about thirty seconds after he did it. "Gods I wish we'd made that spring from Frey's Breath. Your compass won't just...zap us there, will it?" Remi's voice is hopeful even though he's well aware of the limits that come with Ronin's compass.

"Oh ho." Stretching his fingers out and wiggling them at Ronin, his skin begins to disappear to reveal bone beneath that bends strangely to the light around them. "I suppose I shall just stay a spooky man demi-god then. Besides, from what I have seen of the gods, it is just a lot of...showing up when needed, being asked for things, and being ignored the rest of the time." Which, for all the good cheer Mort had imbued into his life, was still not the sort of thing he wanted for his future.

"Nope, and honestly I am not sure I would want to see him again so soon. It's like...having too much of a good thing. Like when you laugh too long and you start to ache everywhere and nearly pee yourself, but you can't help it."

when everything's meant to be broken,
i just want you to know who I am
