1 ► I want a man so kind and soft-hearted it hurts my heart when I'm mean to him
2 ► imagine having beef with me. like some nice roast beef with potatoes and carrots. please have beef with me
3 ► Apparently my royal knight feels like she'll "always be chasing the high" of a potato salad she had at a family friend's funeral 3 years ago
4 ► I've been working too many hours and we aren’t getting to spend a lot of time together so before we go to sleep we’ve been agreeing on a place we will try to meet in our dreams. Like I will say “under the flowering cherry tree on Silkspinner's Street” and he says “Week 3 of the Siege of Belega”

You jest, but there are some things you have to experience. There's nothing like driving back an opposing force, I'm certain you'd find it exhilarating.

[royalist]

Sometimes I worry that you have more unresolved issues than I realize...

I guess it's a good thing that you'll be ready if we ever have to face something like... an invasion by an external force...

[ this is a really generous interpretation of his bloodthirsty husband's ptsd, but, like, ]

[luciferi]

I welcome the challenge. Perhaps you and I could fight side by side to clear the opposition. You'd look rather stunning mid-battle, tousled and covered in mud.

[ what are "unresolved issues"? ]

[royalist]

I do have to confess that I've sometimes wondered how the Archetypes stack up against foreign magic...

War isn't good for anyone, though...

[ but louis is right... will does have a little bloodthirsty side to him that would absolutely thrive in the heat of war... ]

You... really like the idea of getting me dirty so that you can clean me up, huh?

[luciferi]

[ war isn't good for anyone, no matter how much Louis relishes in it. perhaps it's one of the only times he could find peace after the death and destruction brought upon the elda. ]

Perhaps.

Though there is a part of you that I understand. One I don't think many do.

[royalist]

That's why we're married.

You like being the only one who understands me.

[luciferi]

We are alike in more ways than we are different.

[ perhaps it's Louis who also likes being understood, probably for the first time in his life. ]

[royalist]

[ and on the flip side, will likes being the one to extend his understanding, too. so it goes. a healthy relationship... more or less. ]

I do genuinely hope that you can have a peaceful dream one day.

But for now... I'll try my best to meet you on the battlefield.
