How do I learn my dreams to mold
To lay them bare in the morning cold?
To lay them bare in the morning cold?
Beneath his unshaven cheeks, the muscles of his jaw work furiously as Remi continues to try and keep his emotions in check. It's in moments like these that normally he'd dig his claws into a nearby tree, flaying away the bark with enough force that most wouldn't even remain standing when he was done. Only with Maeve's oh-so-breakable fingers in his own, it was all the alchemist could do to focus on breathing in and out.
"I know what I said." He interrupts with a slight shake of his head, though his eyes don't leave hers. Had this not been Maeve and had they not years of shared experiences between them, Remi would have chosen a different tactic entirely. Instead of pledging himself to do whatever Safrin might demand of him, he would have instead told Maeve he'd destroy any such weapon she was trying to create had it the power to kill his husband. Maybe he'd even have killed her; that would have been easy to do, especially here in the Greatwood.
Instead, Remi simply sighs as his gaze drops away and his shoulders slump away from his ears. "Alright. Well...let me know what she says."

If they're still out there then the chasm grows
For all you know, for all you've known
For all you know, for all you've known
Speaks with a thick Italian accent.
Force and magic can be used against Remi without permission.
