With a slow, lazy stretch, Makaria slowly began the process of waking up. It wasn't an easy process; Makaria was not a morning person. Stretching was the first part of the process. The next step was rolling onto her back, while stretching still. Normally, this goes smoothly, as she is in her bed, in her own room, very much alone.

Something was different today. Her outstretched hand touched something very warm and rather solid. With her eyes still closed, she furrowed her brow and felt around for a minute. Interesting. This should not be there.

Slowly she pried the lid of one eye open and found herself staring up at a somewhat unclothed Phonos.

"This does not make sense."

Phonos looked over when the girl began to wake up and didn't move or react when she reached out to feel his shoulder. Still, he felt some sense of.. perhaps relief when she finally looked up at him and stopped groping around at his body. Though he wasn't a sexual being by any stretch of the imagination, he was still aware enough of social norms to recognize their position as not entirely kosher; the contact felt foreign and that made him just a hint uncomfortable.

"I am aware of that," he replied with something akin to a sigh. Apparently his hopes for explanation were going to be proven as delusions momentarily. "I am not sure how we arrived here, but the calendar suggests it is the year 2031."

It seemed simpler not to mention the ring. First they would address the date, then they could begin to examine their potential situation.

She made a face of consternation and moved to sit up. Then she realized she was nude. Curious. Tentatively, she inched her foot over and the sole of her foot met the bare skin of his leg. She let her foot slide a little higher, just slightly above his knee. Oh, he was nude. Very nude.

She clutched the sheet to her chest and finally achieved an upright, seated position beside him.

"That's not logical. That is twenty years in the future. Going to sleep does not involve time travel." Or waking up naked with someone else, but that was the least of their concerns.

Phonos shifted uncomfortably when she touched him again, but didn't move away, expecting it was some kind of ritual for her or some way to establish tangible evidence. Whatever the case, it finished quickly enough that he allowed it. He looked over to her when she sat up with the sheet; his waist down was still covered, though one of his legs up to his knee was bare now from her movements.

"See for yourself." He motioned to the joint clock and calendar on the table beside his their bed, on his side. He realized it would be difficult for her to see at that angle, however, and looked around the room for other evidence as well.

"There must be some--" Phonos cut off when he caught sight of one of the photos on the wall, a framed photograph of Makaria in a wedding dress and himself in a suit. A black and white theme to the wedding, by the looks of it. He completely lost his train of thought, staring at the image.
