So. Yeah.

...I might not stop over that.

I'm not going to do that to you.

I'm not saying you should. But I'm not on that much of a hair trigger.

'might not stop' isn't very reassuring -

...yeah, I know. It's complicated.

That I got. Anyway if you two want to get the indelible version for reasons of 'abusive boyfriend' I won't mind -

If I wind up getting the indelible version are you going to read that into it, now?

I will trust you if you tell me that's not the reason.

Okay. Sigh. I love you, I'm sorry I upset you.

Not your fault at all. His fault.

I assume if I had been fully in favor of going and killing him you could have avoided that specific freakout even if you would still be generally distressed about his existence, I was the last person to say something before you left.

Yeah. But you meant it, I don't want you to not say things you believe just because I can't keep it together -

And I don't want to be the thing that provokes you into falling apart.

Not you. Him.

Sigh.

Anyway, lovely wedding dancing. He will dance with his husband.

Kib will also dance with his husband. He has Loki's grace spell on him and he can do that.

And when the wedding wraps up Maedhros will go home and his partner will follow with a worried expression and Island will stay long enough to congratulate the brides one last time.

"Thank you so much for coming," Gem says.

"Our pleasure! Congratulations, and may you be happy together forever!"

"That's the idea!"

"And fix many worlds!"

"Also the plan. The one the snake things come from is next up."

"Oooh, excellent. Do you have a strategy in mind?"
