His eyes blushed pink, [color=7B68EE]"Yes..."[/color] Tilting his head up to the taller form, Remy could catch his dear's smile in his peripheral. [color=7B68EE]"For now, I'm just fine. Later... probably not so much."[/color] With a deep sigh, Remy just enjoyed being wrapped in Yuri's warmth and trying his best not to let the events of the day cloud his focus. With this threat now endangering everyone, Remy wondered if it would force a gap between him and his potential bow. Truly, Yuri would be asked to assist with their escape - he's one of the strongest Mages there, along with Lithy, Ivy, and a few others... He doubts he'll be asked to help - which would keep them apart for a while. Yuri quickly snapped back to reality and sighed as he looked at Emelia and Lithy. [color=00CED1]"I'll do it. I'll create a path for us to get out. We all need to stay focused. Understood? Once we are at Black Hill Top we can set into motion making allies and figuring out how to deal with your mom, Emelia."[/color] He felt everyone's concerns and doubts but held no doubt in his mind that the elite students would be able to come up with the right solutions to handle this matter of survival. He just wished he was stronger in his abilities to offer more aid. Learning about his abilities and starting the Institution rather late in life doesn't make him any stronger than the others in his class. But, for some reason, Muir placed him with the others... Has she seen his divination grades this session? But, it's obvious to him, and all the other students by now, that she wasn't looking for quality. She was looking for quantity - the more magical students she had under her thumb, the more power she'll gain when she drains them... Remi's eyes darkened to the deepest blue; he closed his eyes quickly and turned away. Remy felt Yuri's chin on his shoulder and interlaced fingers. [color=00CED1]"Don't overexert yourself, babe,"[/color] Yuri noted at his ear. [color=00CED1]"As much as I'd love to carry you, I don't want you to hurt yourself. Besides, we can revisit those chains and whips later if you want."[/color] Another blush took over his cheeks and his eyes brazen a mid-tone of purple. Thank god, no one else around them understood his personal rainbow of emotions. The embarrassment would have caused him a stroke. [color=7B68EE]"~Yuri~, don't tease... not now, at least."[/color] Remy squeezes his hand, silently expressing his feelings about the crowd. [color=7B68EE]"I'm fine... really. Just wish I can... help out more, somehow."[/color]
