"Ah. Any ideas how?"

"Well. I've been thinking finding the gate would count. Providing an afterlife, and all."

Snuggle. "I will in fact be grateful if you pull this off. At least if you can also help me get to one of the better ones."

Permalink

"Yeah, 's the plan."

Permalink

"Good. I guess.

"I'm sorry about - being dismal about stuff."

Permalink

Shrug. "I'm mostly - sorry that things were such a way that you feel like you have to check all of those things? I guess?"

Permalink

"Yeah.

"There's kind of a part of me that feels like it's - sort of hubristic to even try to be happy, let alone try to be happy by trusting that things will go well with some specific other person, and not - prepare for the very worst, you know?"

Permalink

"I guess? - I love you."

Permalink

Snuggle.

"I hope everything goes okay. I hope nothing terrible happens and you don't go insane and you don't decide that I'm actually a terrible person who you were being ridiculous to fall in love with, and I hope we have wonderful children who we take excellent care of, and I hope eventually you find us a gate, and - should I be hoping for Elysium or are you planning on getting sick of me by then - "

"Now why would I marry someone I was planning on getting sick of eventually?"

Permalink

"I dunno. You could predict having a higher preference for variety on the scale of centuries."

Permalink

"I think - these promises are about this lifetime. Because we don't know what Elysium is like. But I don't expect I'll be tired of you."

Permalink

Nodnod. "Well. Maybe I'll hope for that, then."

Snuggle.

"D'you have questions?"

Permalink

"Don't think so? It's not - men don't need to worry they'll get hit, right, it's not scary in the same way thinking that there might be something I haven't thought of..."

Permalink

"Women can hit men, though I don't particularly think you need to worry about this. You could just - be wrong about something about me that you didn't realize you were relying on and then be miserable. I guess."

Permalink

"Well, I am not very worried about this."

Permalink

"Don't think I might be secretly terrible?"

Permalink

"I really don't!"

Permalink

"Maybe I can worry about it enough for both of us. Although it's kind of hard to direct this usefully, since I have, like, no idea what - maybe you should tell me what'll be different if we get married. Or something. Maybe at some point I can stop worrying that I've missed something terribly important."

Permalink

 

"There is the, uh, thing I should probably tell you."

Permalink

"Oh yeah. Okay. You can - now, or you can wait, I guess, though I guess it might be worse if it was later and I really liked you and then it was something - really bad - "

Permalink

"Yeah." 

 

He swallows. 

"My brother is the pharaoh of Osirion."
