" - yes, I do. I will get my Rebecca first, though."
In a Catholic church from the 23rd century! He turns her around so she can see illusions if he sings them and then he draws up Vanda Nossëo for her.
Quendi love pretty things. - sometimes we even drag them out of the 1800s to take home with us.
She likes feeling pretty. She leans on him and squirms contentedly. Gosh, if they were not wearing clothes this sitting in his lap thing could get a lot more interesting slow down Arden not married yet.
She is not. He goes back to singing and petting and listening for passing thoughts of 'but what if I didn't want to marry this powerful stranger' or anything.
She is all in on marrying the powerful stranger. The petting feels so nice and the singing is so lovely and he wanted her so much he brought her back from the dead, wow!
That is exactly what the emphatic briefing co-signed by Rebecca and Beka and their respective lovers said would happen but it still feels weird.
After a while he says 'would you like to leave Lórien now? I have a place for you to stay in the palace until we're married, if that'll be less temptation or more propriety than living with me."
She looks up at him adoringly. "That sounds lovely sir." She does wonder vaguely if, were she sufficiently tempted, she could then likewise be sufficiently tempting, but mostly as an entertaining mental exercise; she is still pretty clear on the being married first thing. Definitely it would be improprietous to be living in sin. That's why they call it that. Also: palace. Palace!
He makes sure he has a firm hold on baby Catherine and then pop pop pop pop pop palace! It is so excessively lovely!
He is holding Catherine correctly, good. The transportation method is interesting! The palace is so gorgeous, she must twirl. She spreads out her arms and twirls down the hall till she's dizzy.
Awwwwww. We mostly telepath the servants but you can ring them with this - and this is called a computer, come sit in my lap and I'll show you how it works -
Computers!!! Not freaking out very much at all as she continues to not think about horrible things!
No! Cute and not- horrible and totally doable, even, he asks someone over osanwë to bring them food.
That isn't horrible either! Nothing is horrible except for the thing where it would ruin her day to be able to refuse him but he is pretty sure he has a workaround for that!
And she is not thinking anything that seems to invalidate his workaround! She is thinking about how handsome he is and how tasty the food is and how good it is to have her Catherine back and about how lovely the singing was and about how pretty the palace is.
"Oh, so, we're getting everybody resurrected in time for the wedding, and there's this world where there's this thing - uh, literally everybody is kinky and they built the whole society around it, if your world has that concept -"
"...how do you build a society around people being kinky? Do you have to wear a badge saying you're into feet?"
