* head back to RNG or go there if you haven't already and roll between 1 and 5, or choose a prompt of your own.
* play out the sequences relevant to that of a married lifestyle.

1. proposal {
1. park - you've been planning this proposal for awhile and have taken your sweetheart to a nice secluded area in the park. are they going to say yes or leave you in the dust?

2. house - dimmed lights, candles, home made dinner. it's obvious you've fixed yourself up for something tonight. let's see if your lover catches on before the question is popped.

3. public event - perhaps you're one who wants to gain a lot of attention; maybe your significant other doesn't as much. either way, this goes from writing their message in the sky with an airplane to something like a flash mob ensemble with others involved.

4. restaurant - nothing romantic like taking them out somewhere ritzy and hiding the rings in that glass of expensive wine.

5. car - you've driven them somewhere nostalgic or meaningful either to you or each other, or perhaps just a good view overlooking the city cause maybe you had no other idea how to do it or couldn't afford anything else.

2. marriage {
1. traditional - both parties have agreed and said yes, and everything goes well just like in the fairy tales you've always dreamed of.

2. arranged - you had no say so in this but somebody else like your parents did. you've never seen this person before until you walk down the aisle. what are your thoughts? are you nervous? what if you two don't get along? looks like you have to deal with it either way. enjoy?

3. elope - nothing fancy. you know, they do make drive thru chapels or perhaps you're just going to experience the excitement of meeting up at the court. all and all, it doesn't matter, just so you have your sweetheart to yourself.

4. shotgun - congrats, somebody is pregnant. there's only one more thing left to do now..

5. disaster - looks like somebody forgot the rings! never mind the fact the maid of honor is having a wardrobe malfunction or that soon to be father in law is causing a scene of some sort.

3. after marriage {
1. honeymoon night - self explanatory! come on, you know what this means. it just wouldn't be the same without this option.

2. new addition - it could be a pregnancy or bringing home a new child, or something as simple as a new pet goldfish.

3. house purchase - after months of living in a trashy apartment, you're both about to sign the dotted line and move into your new place.

4. argument - deep, relationship sort of arguments or something petty like who drank all the milk; it's up to you!

5. divorce - somebody has had enough of this and is ready to move on. how will it all go down?

"I'm just glad I don't have to find out," she said with a smile.

[asyoufindme]

"Never. I will never not want to be with you, I guarantee that."

[coyote_walking]

"Just don't ever change your mind," she said softly. "I could take anything but that."

[asyoufindme]

"Never," he reiterated, pulling her closer, "I can promise you that."

[coyote_walking]

She looked tough - and she was tough, but in this area? Completely vulnerable.

"Okay," she said softly. "As long as you're sure, I trust you."

[asyoufindme]

He's all too aware that there is a soft side to Mercy, and he's vowed, right here, right now, to protect it, to never be the one to hurt her.

"I couldn't be more sure of anything, I know that much."

[coyote_walking]

"Good. You'd better be." She laughed and hugged him.

[asyoufindme]

"I couldn't be more sure. I couldn't want you any more than I already do."

[coyote_walking]

She kissed him, overcome with emotion. "Thank you for loving me."

[asyoufindme]

"Thank you for marrying me", he chuckled, holding her closer.

[coyote_walking]

She laughed. "We're a wonderful mutual appreciation society."

[asyoufindme]

"Pretty sure I wouldn't want it with anyone else quite the same way I do with you."

[coyote_walking]

Mercy just buried her face in his shoulder and clung to him, filled with happiness.

[asyoufindme]

Matt can't help himself, he brushes some hair back past her ear and leans close. "I adore you, future Mrs. Delaney."

[coyote_walking]

She held him close, stretching up to kiss him and sliding one hand under his shirt to be able to touch his skin.

[asyoufindme]

He chuckles softly against her lips, but doesn't pull away nor does he discourage her from touching him. After all, they were here alone.

[coyote_walking]

Mercy slid her hands up his back under his shirt as she kissed him. She wanted to be as close as she could get.

[asyoufindme]

Matt huffs out a laugh, but doesn't deny Mercy anything that she wants, and why would he? They're alone out here, there's hardly any danger of anyone catching them.

[coyote_walking]

She's not quite sure how far she wants to push this, but it's not as if anyone's around, so a little more won't hurt. So she deepens the kiss.

[asyoufindme]

Surely a little kissing wasn't such a bad idea, after all, they were celebrating something big. Surely nobody would hold it against them if someone did catch them at it.

[coyote_walking]

"Best day ever," she murmured against his lips.

[asyoufindme]

"At least until the day I get to see you saying 'I do'," he sighed, only pulling away to take a breath.

[coyote_walking]

She put a hand to her forehead. "Oh man. My mother. She'll want to micromanage this whole thing to death."

[asyoufindme]

That gets a long, loud laugh out of Matt, tapering off into a sigh. "Um ... so will mine. Do we dare get them together?"

[coyote_walking]

"It's not like we're going to be able to keep them apart," Mercy said. "But it's going to be a wild ride."
