...

Roman been turned into a five year old during a match with the dragonwitch. Unsurprisingly, he had been attached to his brother's hip, fearing that the older would abandon him. Which, again, didn't surprise Remus as he expected Roman to be clingy.

Things had gone relatively smoothly, and Remus had even gotten the prince to sleep in his own room after a few days! It took some coaxing and remus moving to the border of the dark and light side so Roman could be closer to him as night, but he managed.

"'Mus! 'Mus!" Roman cried out, sobbing in his too big bed as he waited for his brother to come comfort him. It took a few minutes before Remus opened the door, rubbing his eyes.

"I'm here Ro-bro.." He murmured as the child ran over to his brother. Remus picked him up and held him close like a parent would their child. "It's ok lil one.."

"I-I had a bad dream dat you left left me an' I not able to find you.." Roman sobbed into his brothers shoulder. Remus yawned quietly and walked over to Romans bed, sitting on it as he held the tiny child.

"I'll never go somewhere you can follow, Ro.. I would never leave my favorite little brother behind, whether or not you're stuck as a literal child.." Remus smiled softly as Roman looked at him with big teary eyes.

"It always seems more quiet in the dark.. It always feels so stark how silence grows under the moon.." Remus sang quietly as he teleported the two of them to the Imagination. "Constellations gone so soon.."

The sky filled with constellations and different planets made completely out of Remus' creative whimsing. Roman looked at the sky in aww as he held onto his brother.

"I used to think that I was bold.. I used to think that love would be fun.." Remus thought back to life as King and his broken relationship with Janus. "Now all the stories have been told except for one.."

Remus summoned a cloud to sit on with his brother in his lap. They drifted into the sky, Roman yawning in his arms. Remus held his little brother protectively yet lovingly, treating the younger like a son rather than a brother. Then again, Remus always had been the parental one growing up before they were separated.

"As the stars start to align, I hope you take it as a sign that you will be ok.. Everything will be ok.." Remus sang softly, the stars closest to them moving as if controlled by magic. They started dancing and swirling in the air. "And if the seven hells collapse, although the day could be my last, you will be ok.."

Roman yawned curling up in Remus' arms as his eyes got droopy and sleep made him drowsy. He held tightly onto his brother as he watched the pretty sky.

"When I'm gone you'll be ok.. And when creation goes to die you can find me in the sky upon the last day!" Remus sang as some of the stars spontaneously combust es but in a soft and gentle manner rather than a loud and scary way.

The cloud drifted back to Romans room and Remus gently laid his brother in bed. Roman smiled a little as he curled up in his bed. He covered Roman up and tucked him in.

"And you will be ok.." Remus kissed Romans head before carefully walking out of the room and shutting the door softly.

He went back to his own abnormally messy room and curled into his bed of blankets and pillows, using Virgils old jacket as a blanket. He yawned and let himself drift into a restless sleep.
