the lullaby
With his arms spread to receive her, the Lullaby pulls her in close. Having doused back his own feelings as much as he was able, Remi took on board the bittersweet blaze that roared from his friend's touch, holding her tightly as if he might syphon some of the pain away leaving only the joy. 'Thank you for coming.' He whispers against her hair, holding her longer than the moment likely called for if only because the swell of her emotions seemed to fix him in place.
He wouldn't tell her that he was sorry her lantern had been chosen, because of course he wasn't, and likely neither was she. Instead, he just kissed the top of her head and sighed softly. "I know how it feels." He whispers gently. Having been able to see Ronin one last time before Safrin took him into the skies and having been with Enzo in the desert...gods but it was an exquisite and unfair pain to bear.

I got a feeling inside that I can't domesticate
It doesn't wanna live in a cage,
A feeling that I can't housebreak
It doesn't wanna live in a cage,
A feeling that I can't housebreak
