[Unfortunately for Claire, he was delivered a bouquet of roses this morning. He didn't think much of it, after all there wasn't any card attached to them. They were just normal flowers probably meant for one of his kids or something. He actually thought it was kind of cute even if they were drones. He wondered if he should try finding a vase to put them in for now until the kids came home from school, but suddenly he remembered something so instead he just sat them them down on the coffee table, grabbed his coat, and then left.]

I'm goin' out for a few, be back later!

[What a lovely day, the birds are singing and love is in the air. Claire's currently enjoying a nice relaxing walk through town.]

I don't know why I had the sudden urge to leave the house. I knew I had to pick somethin' to pick up at the store...but I completely forgot what it was. This is gonna bug me until I remember. Then again, there's no harm in getting some fresh air. So maybe it's a good thing I can't remember...

[Whatever happens he will feel a deep sense of regret for days to come...Randomly stop him and say hi?]

[It isn’t like Erim still needed to learn more about Mayfield at this point. There’s a lot unexplored yet, but the basics had been memorized.]

[No, she continued to walk because traveling had always been exciting to her, even if it’s so a mundane an affair that a goddess shouldn’t admit it.]

[Still, it was at least somewhat pleasant. For now.]

[Spying Felix, Erim feels compelled to call out before she stops herself. Something isn’t entirely… right. Deciding to call again, the female’s tone is uncertain.]

…Felix? Are you alright?

((OoC: Um… I hate to put an OoC note here but I see no comments, so I’m assuming no one else replied yet? If I’m wrong please feel free to ignore me!))

[railtracer]

Huh? yeah I'm fine. I just forgot what I came here for...that's all. This is really startin' to bug me.

I...

[He's going to hate himself in the morning or whenever the effects wear off for what he's about to do now.]

Erim, will you marry me?

[sinistralofdeath]

[…]

[……]

[…What?]

…Ah— I—

[Erim's brain is desperately attempting to process this information.]

This. I. M-ma…rry?

[railtracer]

I'm sorry, is this too soon? Though, to be frank, I really do mean it. Ahh! Ever since you ended up in my house...I wanted ask you back then but I just couldn't!

Oh, 'n even though we're technically married already, if you say yes it'll actually be for real.

[sinistralofdeath]

I… I… [Her brain is still trying to process this. What in the world. “Too soon” is exactly right.]

[railtracer]

So, what's it gonna be? Well to tell you the truth even if you say no, you won't be the first girl to turn me down. I guess you can say I'm used to it. But wouldn't it it be nice to have a little certainty in these uncertain times that we live in? [Once he snaps out of this, this will be the moment he will never speak of again.]

[sinistralofdeath]

[What to do, what to say—something, anything.]

G… Goddess. I am the—the Goddess of Death. You are a human. It’s—no, cannot… Forbidden.

[Not exactly eloquent, but a start.]

1/2

[railtracer]

Hmm?

[Letting this sink in....]

2/3 (I lied sorry)

[railtracer]

You mean...like an actual goddess?

[railtracer]

That's even better!

[sinistralofdeath]

[Okay. So that didn’t exactly work.]

[At this point, Erim may as well be reciting from some sort of code.]

Th-the union of mortal and immortal is forbidden. The wrath of Lord Arek the Absolute will rain upon those who break the taboo… I…

[Disregarding the fact that Lord Arek isn’t here, of course.]
