[aphanon_meme]

... that's a lot of pieces of eight! I think. Sorry for the delay, more internet troubles... lol aka giving up on customer service and asking family to come over at night to fix our internet. I made them cookies. I don't know where this is going! I'm just rambling about things that don't matter

[walks through the house one more time]

[glances at couch, wheelchair, pamphlets]

[opens bedroom closet and places down fresh bowl of water, along with open bag of chips and box of raisins]

Take care, all right? I'll...I'll make sure you're cared for properly

[looks out into the vast meme]

[turns to lock the front door]

[walks on, heels clicking]

Matth- I'm sorry!

[drops knife and quickly grabs his wrist]

No matter what I do, I keep hurting you, don't I?

[holds his hand up and examines the palm]

[eyes widen at what she sees]

[maple_sickles]

[grits his teeth against the stinging pain]

Please, cease your apologizing...!

[stares at his hand; the bleeding is slowing to a stop before his eyes]

W-what-

[quickly runs her finger over the cut, marking her fingers with blood]

[yet fingers move to reveal unmarred skin]

Y-you're still healing this way, how?!

[other hand holds onto this arm, not letting go]

Re: Such bears, such bears

[maple_sickles]

[stares in wonder and s drop of relief]

I... I do not know.

[looks at her]

What would you have me do?

If I am still... still intact, at the least I can... protect...

[glances down at her belly]

This will not remain a secret forever, no matter how we may lie.

[is still looking at his palm in disbelief]

....

[looks up at him, tears starting to form]

I..I have to leave, Matthew. I have to leave soon.

[places palm on his cheek]

I won't be able to be with you...for a long time.

[reaches up further, now that her high heels are gone]

[brushes a finger over his brow]

But-I'll be back. I'll come back to you, Matthew.

[maple_sickles]

[traps her hands in his]

And where would I go?

[trying to will the agonized expression off his dace]

[entwines hand with his]

[maple_sickles]

[squeezes her hand]

Then... do not ask me not to come with you.

[runs his hand through her hair]

You can watch over me. ...And I can watch over... the two of you...

[leans into his touch, squeezes his hand back]

Then...

Re: all good~~

[maple_sickles]

[tilts her chin up and kisses her, more gently than he ever has before]

Our own little glorious family.

Re: all good~~

[anonymous]

[returns the kiss chastely and firmly]

The future can always be change, can't it?

[quirks lips]

...fickle bastard.

[wraps arms around him, leans forward and kisses him gently]

Re: all good~~

[maple_sickles]

[kisses her once more, with everything he has in him]

[picks her up and walks towards the bed]

Some rest first, then? We can pack properly and slip out of town tomorrow.

For now...

[deposits her gently on the bed and climbs on as well]

May I massage your feet, mistress?

Re: all good~~

[anonymous]

[smiles into the kiss, feeling a weight lifted]

[keeps her eyes on his face as she's lifted]

Yes, and there will be a proper notification and request of course. Procedures must be followed after all..

[looks up at him fondly and a little tired]

..and thank you, Matthew.
