"It seems the event has come to a close," he noted to Charlotte, "and I may have something to attend to. Thank you for the conversation. Don't forget to look up." With that, he walked out into the night. The carriage pulled up to the manor, and Maeve quickly saw that Cedric was attended to. Once all was well, she hushed her handmaiden away and unlocked the gates, slipping into the night. She was free. Like the moon.

Well thank you anyways for helping me stay away from my relatives for just a little bit longer, soon they'll try to marry me out I fear and slip something into my drink or me somehow to make me more complacent, docile, and 'womanly'. I don’t want it though, but I don't know how much longer I can keep dodging it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He reached around, putting his other hand on the small of her back. This felt... familiar somehow. Aubrey took his other hand and put her other one underneath Owen’s first. “This is how we start,” she said. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"And if you would rather just not talk, that's fine too. Whatever works for you." He ran a hand through his hair, messing it up, but he didn't seem to notice. @Ookla the Yellow Sock She sits silent for a moment. ”I mean I suppose this isn’t too horrible…I mean you are quite horrible, but uhm… well not quite… just a little bit. Still so horrible.” She just stops speaking, stumbling over her words. *** I look over at him, not really sure what to do or how to hold myself. ”I’m sorry, I don’t know what I’m doing…I’ve never had to try and impress someone.” I sigh and mumble the second part. “I didn’t ask to be thrown out to the dogs like fresh meat either, but here I am talking to one.” I say under my breath. 35 minutes ago, Ookla the Lotus said: The carriage pulled up to the manor, and Maeve quickly saw that Cedric was attended to.

Aeoryi she/her Posted December 14, 2023 Report Share Posted December 14, 2023 Quote Hello all you starfallers! Today, I am sad to announce that I will be dropping out of this RP. I never was really on par with the idea, and I do think it did turn out exactly as I foresaw, but then and again, I have seen so much passionate RPing in this thread. Have a good rest of your RP! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this life, at least, I must. But fear not. We all won't survive long enough to begin to imagine eternity. In fact, I'd be surprised if I'm even married by the time we all die. Fear not. It is a short time. I will have my fun. You will have yours. This man will be too drunk to understand what is happening, caught up in the haze of it all." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
