Huh. The courier blinked, visibly taken aback at Remi's bluntness in not advocating for his own god. "...Oh..." He managed, subdued as he wrestled with the implications of what he'd just been told.
The young man was already dazed and his head was swimming when Boreal finally took pity on her bonded and ambled over to shove her broad head under his hand, leaning hard against his hip. He started scratching between her horns out of habit, but the familiar action helped him focus on Remi once more as the Lullaby began to speak.
Pale eyes widened at the forthright advice and a light clicked on upstairs. "I never thought of it like that... The way everyone talks, I figured we had to..." He trailed off and gave his head a shake - but carefully, as if afraid to damage the fragile new ideas taking shape there. "That's... that's really good to know. Thanks!" The grin he flashed the demigod was wry as he reached up to rub the back of his neck awkwardly again. "Uh. Well. I hope the package turns out as good as the advice. If y'ever need something delivered to someone who's been dodging your ravens, just look me up in Snowcloak." The grin took on a decidedly cheeky lilt as he hefted his now much-lighter pack.
