[ boomers 🙄 ]

You know texting is perfectly valid, right?

[unfriendlygreen]

Absolutely not. Some events are worth a call.

Congratulations. I'll make sure the guest room has a queen bed.

[extent]

The guest room.

[ he's trying, really hard, not to get caught up in details like this. it's easier to just--move on. ]

It was cute. Under the stars, his mother's ring. Crazy romantic, I never would have pictured it going like that.

[unfriendlygreen]

[ if ragnor had it his way he'd be moving into a cave. the logistics are hard, he's never had to find a place to move into with other people.

but he can think about that later. ]

Oliver is very sweet and he has good taste.

[extent]

He meant it this time. He said he was serious.

[ but he doesn't even want his own room ]

[unfriendlygreen]

Why wouldn't he be serious?

[extent]

We always say we'd marry each other, it was a whole thing, it just wasn't like...you know. Actually asking, until now.

[unfriendlygreen]

I've done fireworks at a wedding before, I'd be happy to do it again.

[ at magnus' wedding. maybe this time he'll get to walk someone down the aisle. ]

[extent]

I don't know what I want the actual wedding to be like. I've never thought about it before.

[unfriendlygreen]

You don't have a wedding scene you keep going back to?

[extent]

I mean I never thought I'd get married, like, at all. I just didn't think it'd happen for me.

[unfriendlygreen]

You could sit down with Oliver and go through the basics. Big or small, time of day, indoors or outdoors. It'll start taking shape like that.

[extent]

I'm not in a rush. There's, like, a million more important things to handle right now, you know?

[unfriendlygreen]

But this one's more fun.

[extent]

What would you do, if you got married?

[unfriendlygreen]

I don't know if I would get married.

[extent]

But like, if you did.

[unfriendlygreen]

Mmh, probably a small ceremony by the beach. Intimate, quiet.

[extent]

Do you think you'd ever do something like marriage?

[unfriendlygreen]

I've done long-term committed relationships. I was young once.

[extent]

And you wouldn't now?

[unfriendlygreen]

[ he hesitates audibly before answering. ]

It tends to go poorly.

[extent]

What happened?

[unfriendlygreen]

Well. It ends. Mortals age or get sick, and I don't.

[extent]

I don't want to ask you to marry me. [ he figures he should probably just. get that out of the way, with the line of questioning and all. ] If you wanted...something, I'd give it to you, but I'm not going to ask. So you don't have to stress.
