Time moves strangely. It feels as if I should have been with all of you more than a few moons.

[ That means Moon and Gaius too. ]

How should we add Gaius into that mix of names?

[menphina]

It does... and I suppose we can have it be... Ser Estinien Varlineau-Borel Baelsar Yukimura of the Oceans and Utakata Family.

[ She beams, with an ear wiggle. ]

Estinien for short!

[finalsteps]

With how many lovers I have, perhaps Hydaelyn was right about me.

[ He snickers, leaning down to kiss her. ]

[menphina]

Aye, you're certainly full of love now, aren't you?

[ Standing up on tiptoe to kiss him, wiggling her ears. ]

Such a charming rogue you are, indeed. And what a fine husband you'll make, too... whenever that time comes. Does it.. make you happy to think of it?

[finalsteps]

It makes me happy to think of it, aye. I never thought I would be a husband to be honest. And if I could mind your little ones with Aymeric and Moon…

[ He’s still certain he would be a better minder and than father. ]

[menphina]

You could father them too.

[ She smiles and takes his face in her hands. ]

'twould be nice to leave more than just your deeds in our world, aye?

[finalsteps]

I could, but isn’t that asking a lot of your body?

[ THAT IS SO MANY BABIES. ]

[menphina]

You underestimate my body. Do you know mine mother's sisters have at least twelve children of their own from different mates? ... granted a lot of them were twins and triplets, but-



[ This is normal. ]

[finalsteps]

I do not understand the workings of your tribe and such. I know you've a Matriarchal duty…

Are you still fulfilling that having the children of two elezen and a dragon?

[ help. ]

[menphina]

Perhaps a Garlean too, should he want it. Though he may just be fine with all the children around already.

[ Gaius is good about adopting, isn't he? She grins then. ]

'tis just wishful thinking, anyroad. If there's a chance of it coming true... then I shall happily take it. We've still many adventures to have until then, aye?

[finalsteps]

Perhaps it will just take time for me to get used to.

[ He leans down to kiss her. ]

It’s not an unwelcome idea or thought. We can just let it come naturally, aye?

[menphina]

Aye... we've got much else to worry about right now.

[ Wrapping her arms around his neck to pull him down and kiss properly before nuzzling his nose. ]

Come, let's get you changed. Don't want to ruin a nice outfit before you can show it off.

[ She'll move to help him- ]

Did you ever imagine us being this way?

[finalsteps]

[ He will allow her to undress him, assuming they brought other clothes with them. Surely they did. SURELY. ]

Truthfully, I do not know if we would have developed this way without actually being able to stop and think about it. You saw everything that we went through at home. I think saving the universe likely comes before love.

[menphina]

[ She has his casual wear that she also sewed him and once that's off she'll be helping him back into his shirt. ]


Perhaps... but I do know that my feelings for you have always been there. Even if I've never acted on them to make them more than what we are...

[ She laces up the shirt at his waist so it shows off his boobs more. Mm hot boyfriend. ]

The only thing missing back home is the confession, isn't it?

[finalsteps]

Aye, a confession and a proposal. Though I assume that having a three person marriage is a little unheard of. Perhaps the moogles would be willing to wed the three of us.

[ He snorts again, leaning down to get another kiss. ]

I assumed at home you didn’t want me.

[menphina]

'tis not so uncommon... don't forget there are more bondings than the ones the sanctum and church usually have.


[ Tribes and clans have had multi-folk unions for a while. She smiles and kisses him back! ]

... you're silly for assuming I wouldn't want you. I've hardly been subtle about enjoying your company. Not everyone gets to meet my children either, you know.

[finalsteps]

Forgive me, darling, I've not a lot of knowledge on those subjects and you are well aware of that.

[ But also, like, fuck the church. Even if he probably secretly prays to Halone still. He's still a fantasy catholic elf after all. ]

I know this much. Your children are the one thing you keep hidden if you can.

[menphina]

[ She's just glad— he accepted her at all, and she smiles gently at the mention of her children. She misses them so much, and once Estinien is back in a casual shirt and trousers, she tugs him with her to flop onto her cushion nest so they can lay down and cuddle. ]

... is there anything you wish to have of me? Since we're going to be mates... you must have some wishes of your own.

[finalsteps]

[ He has to think about it. He is a man of simplicity. He's never really though much about the things that he wants.

So while putting his arms around her, he shrugs. ]

I've not given it much thought.

[menphina]

I suppose that's all well. You've lived in the moment more than anything, haven't you?


[ She nestles against him, carefully resting her cheek against his chest. ]

I'd just like to have more adventures with you. With everyone for certain, but more with you. I want to enjoy new places by your side.

[finalsteps]

We already made that happen back home at least once, haven't we?

[ He pets her hair mindlessly. ]

I want the same, though..to have adventures. Settling down sounds too hard though.

[menphina]

I don't think either of us could settle for very long- but 'twouldn't be too bad to take a few breathers every now and then.

[ She's purring against his touches, tail wrapping around him and lifting her face to kiss along his jaw. ]

... you know we'll have to get Alberic's blessing too when we return, aye?

[finalsteps]

[ He dwells on that thought for a moment. Alberic? Of course that was his adoptive Father Figure after his own parents and brother were killed. ]

We would be better to visit that desolate wasteland that holds my family and their graves.

[ someone is still tsun about Alberic… ]

[menphina]

[ Oh this big baby. She grins wryly, and lifts her face, and her hand to smoosh his cheek and make him face her. ]

That's a given, love. But I would not wish for Alberic to be left out of it either. After all, you have to show him you're still going strong- and even he said he wouldn't let himself fall behind to you.

[ They're both such silly men. But, she chuckles and bumps her forehead against his. ]

I offered Moon the chance to bear his children with me, too. If he ever wanted. Though he expressed being envious that our dragons had no worry about gender... but if he's able to shift, I like to think he may bear more eggs himself. Maybe he'd want them from you?

[finalsteps]

If you wish to ask for his blessing I won’t stop you. He should I know I am going strong at this point.

[ WHAT A BABY. ]

…we had a talk about it not too long ago. Though it lead to me learning about dragon nests.

[ It was wild AND informative. ]

I know you both would not mind bearing my children. But I could not ask it of either of you.
