Still can't do polls here

immortality isn't living forever that's not what it feels like immortality is everybody else dying

Texts her this:

"You don't even know? That makes you even more of an inconsiderate jerk." Calmly, coldly closes the bedroom door in Kara's face.

"Then I guess you don't need to sleep in the bedroom tonight." 😡 😡 😡 Throws Kara's blankets onto the couch, and claims the bedroom for herself.

"/What's THAT supposed to mean/? What are you getting yourself into?!" 😡

full disclosure, i am a monster. a creature of despair—— not that that should be a cause for concern.

"But at what cost?"

grief taught me inhumane things.

"Well now you have to tell me. Otherwise I'm going to worry."

"If you were talking to that dragon card...What kind of breakthrough are you hoping to have with something that has to be ritually summoned?"

eat the rich ! eat the rich ! itadakimasu , bitch ! skewer then roast them on a spit let's all agree not to snitch !

It only took me 11 days to remember to post here this time. That's an improvement.

"That doesn't seem safe. At all."

"Alright, let me know when. Preferably with lots of warning time so I can properly medicate myself."

"Alright, I imagine I'll have to meet them eventually."

We still can't do polls here?

"A singer? What kind of music do they sing?"

Head in her hands. "Tell me about them."

". . . . . ."

"It's not like /you/ traumatized the child. But I still wish you'd told me before."

"I-I'm not. I j-just got distracted for a moment." Desperately trying to seem calm and cool, and failing, as she grabs Rimuru's hand and attempts to pull herself up.

"I'll take that as a yes."

"You could have told me this earlier. Did the child come pre-traumatized?"

"I-" Blushes and runs into a tree.

Sits on @slimydemon.bsky.social's lap.

"Without asking your fiancée first? Your fiancée who has trauma she doesn't want to pass on to a child?"

Okay that's enough existing for today bye

. . .

"Why would you do that."

"I- You did what-"

Holding her hand out and staring at the ring on her finger, beaming. "I'm. So happy!"

"I've learned that lonely roads can lead to hearts of gold. I'll protect the world..." Queen Kara Sylvia Shikagita Odius. The duelist, model, signer, and idol.

"Mm!" She nods, beaming, holding out her hand so Kara can put the engagement ring on her.

Amara looks quietly at the ring, studying it cryptically. Finally she smiles. "I will be honored to marry you, Kara, your highness."

"Very well. If you can accept me temporarily dying on occasion, and all that comes with it. Then I surmise that you have something you wish to ask me formally?" And she'd better have an expensive engagement ring to offer her as well.

"Mm!" She nods, with a small, brave smile.

". . ." She nods sadly. The place where she lived in her first life was not kind to those who were deemed...unfit.

"I wished for......Eternal beauty and youth."

Amara lets go of Kara and puts her fist to her own lips nervously. "It...it's going to sound stupid. But there was a context. I had reasons."

Amara quietly holds her, squeezing her tightly.

Amara makes comforting noises.

Amara holds her, one hand stroking the back of her hair.

"They...died in some deeply unpleasant way? You don't have to go into detail, that must have been awful."

... 😕

would you rather have a short life with a lot of love, or a long life with no one left to love?

"Do you want to say what your wish was first, or should I tell you mine?"

"Before I answer that. One. You must give up any thought of me becoming fully immortal. Ever. And two. We should tell each other what our wishes were. If I'm to marry for love and not mere survival, my future wife and I should be close enough that we can at least share that much about ourselves."
