the lullaby
Remi's nod of agreement is instant and desperate as he shakes his head yes, over and over in small jerks. Watching hesitantly as she begins to bandage her foot, the Lullaby's lips flinch with unspoken words as they long to jump right into the heart of things. Only the overwhelming evidence of just how impossibly selfish he'd been with Isla all throughout their relationship keeps him momentarily silent.
Meeting the Remedy's gaze is a weight that no amount of divine strength has prepared him for, and though he longs to gaze at her, he finds his eye line slipping down, and down until it reaches the sand. Squeezing his eyes shut against tears and his own endless stupidity, Remi holds out one of his hands toward her. Though it's his right hand, thankfully today the ghostly appendage seems to be onboard.
"I know I have no right to ask anything of you, but please, stay-" Swallowing hard, his throat gone quite dry, Remi bites at the inside of his cheek as if he might lubricate his tongue with his own blood. "-I have so much to apologize to you for. Gods, years worth." Raising his eyes slowly, the Lullaby licks at his lips looking altogether quite hopeless. "And you do not have to accept it, but after all I have put you through, I think you at least deserve to hear it."
Because the thing of it was, I remember was not in fact the most important part of all of this. I was wrong, was.

You trace my lines, stirring my soul
shoot sparks at the heart of the world
& I watch it explode
shoot sparks at the heart of the world
& I watch it explode
Speaks with a thick Italian accent.
