Loss Start - He Did Not Approve This Surgery

[wishmadeinfire.livejournal.com]

[Morning]

[Oh Paradisa. It is such a lovely morning isn't it? Birds chirping outside, gentle, crisp, autumn sunshine. It's one of those days you just want to laze about in bed, stretch a bit and maybe curl up to that special someone, and - ]

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

[Hear a very feminine scream of panic. 

Now, normally, Ashura does not panic, but this... well, this is well worth the panic.]

[Afternoon]

[Having calmed down some and somehow being assured this was neither permanent nor probably long lasting, Ashura is out and about, walking around the Castle in his brand new body. He is trying not to feel to uncomfortable in perhaps the most modest outfit he could find in his equally changed wardrobe, and is intent on going outside to the gardens in hopes that nature will help him find a better sense of calm. Of course, this requires walking through the Castle and this, in and of itself, is an extreme source of discomfort. Please, by all that is holy, do not let anything happen that will just make this worse.]

No, my girlfriend's just kind of a bitch. That's all. [He is very candid about this.]

[wishmadeinfire.livejournal.com]

Well, so long as you enjoy her company.

[icarustattoo.livejournal.com]

For the most part, yeah.

[wishmadeinfire.livejournal.com]

Are you two... betrothed?

[icarustattoo.livejournal.com]

Uhhhhh, it's ... complicated. Kind of? I proposed when I was on a loss, if that, uh, counts.

[wishmadeinfire.livejournal.com]

Oh, than I suppose congratulations are in order.

[icarustattoo.livejournal.com]

Thanks. Just don't spread it around. I don't want anyone making a big deal about it. [Engagement parties in Paradisa sound potentially embarrassing, you see.]

[wishmadeinfire.livejournal.com]

Ah, of course then, I shall keep it to myself. Do you plan to actually have a wedding?

[icarustattoo.livejournal.com]

Thanks. Uh -- it's not something I really would want to do here. But she's sort of on my case about it, so ...

[wishmadeinfire.livejournal.com]

If what I hear about the ladies due to wed in court is true, you might not want to let that go on to long...

_{[He chuckles.]}

[icarustattoo.livejournal.com]

Ha. Knowing Molotov, you're probably right. But, I don't know ... weddings aren't really my scene, you know what I mean? Like, if somebody wanted you to get all married in this place, what would you do?

[wishmadeinfire.livejournal.com]

If I loved them, I see no reason not to. Even if you do not remember it when you return to your world, at least for a brief span you would have had the happiness of it. If nothing else, I believe that feeling will remain, even if you never find the memories connected to them.

And if it makes the other person happy as well, then that seems even more reason to.

Besides, you could keep the ceremony small if you tried.

[icarustattoo.livejournal.com]

[No ... no, stop being logical, Ashura ...]

Yeah, I guess. I'm just like -- what if they go home, you know? So you're, like, a widower except not really, because they can always come back. But then they won't remember getting married in the first place, I guess?

I don't know, I kind of hate this place.

[wishmadeinfire.livejournal.com]

There is always that worry. But one can reason if they married you once they will do so again.

[icarustattoo.livejournal.com]

I guess so. That's assuming everything'll go the same way, though.

[wishmadeinfire.livejournal.com]

It never does, but the same end by different means is still the same end, right?

[icarustattoo.livejournal.com]

You're probably right ...

[wishmadeinfire.livejournal.com]

Do not worry to much for it, Brock.

[icarustattoo.livejournal.com]

I guess so.

You gave me a lot to think about, though. I guess it's good to get like ... an outside opinion on this stuff, you know? Thanks.

[wishmadeinfire.livejournal.com]

You are welcome.
