REMI

& now I'm all alone in the dark of night

Leaning slightly into the feeling of her fingers against his cheek, distantly Remi wondered how terrible he likely looked. Unshaven, hair a mess, milk stains probably on his shirt from Aoife...softly he sighed, eyes falling closed to squeeze out the last of the tears. "Rory?" Remi repeated, shocked. "Protecting the spire?" He asked, his voice harsh and cold sounding. "Did we really risk our lives to defeat the demon, just so that they could take its place?" He asked rhetorically, eyes rising to the ceiling for a moment as he shook his head sadly.

The worst part was, Remi supposed it made sense. Whether his resolve was weakened because it was Rory leading the charge, or whether it was simply the commoner in him who understand what it was to have your 'betters' come in and tell you how to live your life, Remi understood.

"So there is just a stand off now? Rory and the naturals versus...well, us, I suppose?"

The moon is shining but I can't see the light
