to your room

As Ronin stands feathers flourish throughout Remi's curls, his eyes growing wide as his head immediately begins to shake back and forth. He can't move too quickly for fear of knocking the child, but already this sweet and wonderful miracle is darkening all around them and gods if Remi won't fight until his last breath to prevent it. "Hey, come back." Stretching out his hand for the Star, fingers reaching for the man to whom he's pledged his life, the alchemist gives his head another shake.

"A caretaker. But you'll need to help me with creating it...the ones I had growing up were...poor examples." Heart pounding with adrenaline and tight with desperation, Remi tries on as bright a smile as he can manage. However real their son seems to be—or is—Ronin is somehow more real.

Right?

"I can't be without you again." But still there's a worry in his voice. That they won't be right about a caretaker. That things will go horribly wrong. That already they're abandoning their son. "Please." Remi adds, voice heavy with desperation, for though neither of them know how to navigate this strange set of circumstances, the Lullaby knows he can't do it alone.
