Like a Leaf on the Breeze You Blew Away

remi When the heart of this star-crossed voyager beats in time with yours Remi watched as the strange man who he'd ... he'd, what? Dated? Been with? Just turned and went away. For a moment the alchemist merely stood on the doorstep, staring at the door which had been closed in his face. He remembered nothing of the night before, how he'd held Sam until they'd both fallen asleep. The whispered conversations, words lingering on the tip of his tongue. Words that Sam yearned to hear, and that the alchemist was too broken to say but almost did. Now, it was impossible to know whether it was a kindness or a cruelty that he had not. Was it better that Sam never had to hear the words? Or impossibly unfair? But staring at the door in the softly falling snow, Remi remembered nothing. "I am sorry, Samuel." He whispered towards the door with a sad, and confused frown. But because he didn't know the man who had so suddenly interrupted him and now just as suddenly left him, Remi did not do more. Instead, he flew into the darkness back to the Rathskeller.
