I think that would appeal to Ephemera. I don't think my relationship with Cyram's ever been that sort of thing, exactly, but it's also never been without kink.

It appeals to me, too. No big ceremony, no religious bullshit, just vows in front of a few people we cared about. And then whatever my best friend wanted to do for a party because neither of us could ever tell her no.

[ Boy is he ever glad this is text, because :( ]

Those things don't have to be mutually exclusive. But it's more important that whatever you did felt right for both of you.

Who was the best friend?

Her name is Lup. She made our rings for me, since it wasn't like you could go shopping on that world. You've probably seen mine and didn't pay much attention, I wear it on a chain now.

I don't pay much attention to anyone's jewlery, to be honest.

Does Ephemera know what it is?

Of course he does.

I used to wear it, but sometimes I'd catch him looking at it like the reminder was too complicated so I took it off. Then we signed, and around the first time we decided to renew he came across it in the drawer and said it was okay if I put it back on. So we talked about it, and the chain felt right.

Good.

You're never gonna stop double checking that I'm not being an asshole to him, are you?

I respect that.

But also, for fuck's sake.

I was more concerned about you this time but also I love him.

I'm aware.

--wait what? Why would you be concerned about me?

Why wouldn't I be?

In this scenario specifically or like in general? Also I asked first.

In general.

In general I'm not confused. Here, I am. Why would you worry about me if I was the one keeping a secret from him?

Because it would be hurtful to you

I mean, it'd be a hurt I was inflicting on myself by not facing reality.

Which I think is always going to hurt a little anyway, you know? Doesn't mean I don't love him, or that I'm not happy.
