' How hard?' The wendigo parrots, turning to fix his counterpart with a shit-eating smirk. "Just stop breathing for a while Ronin. Stop being charming, Ronin. Shouldn't be hard at all." Raising his eyebrows to emphasize that not doing something wasn't always easy, he rolls his eyes and goes back to his own section of the wall.

"That is true. I could do without water hags and the like." Besides, something about the woods called to the more primal side of Remi, and though that likely wasn't a good thing, his bones yearned for it now that the idea had been suggested.

Appreciating the lack of eye contact, Remi presses his tongue against his cheek, staring intently at the wall as Ronin speaks. 'The good doctor Lockwood.' The wendigo repeats on the heels of a sigh. Itching his cheek with his shoulder, Remi pushes his luck with a bit more honesty. "She..took my hand the other day." He admits in a low voice. "I know this is not some movie where the doctor falls in love with her dangerous ward, but...I did not realize how much she must pity me until she did that." For the most part, Remi was the one who made other's skin crawl, and it was an unwelcome change to experience it himself.
