Come hiiiiither, Heroes! Prove thy parenting skills!!

[ As usual there’s a tremor and then silence -- and then, as may be familiar to a few of you there appears a glittering void, points of light twinkling in the air. As you step into the space it expands, seeming to consume you, the Aurora, and all that exists in general. There’s a feeling of vertigo as this happens, frozen lights swirling all about you and once again it's all accompanied by obnoxious giggling.

When the darkness fades, you find yourself in an empty, featureless room with three doors, and on a pedestal in front of you: matching keys for each door. ]

We aren't exclusive. His feelings for you came before his feelings for me, anyway, and he isn't able to give them up. Nor am I asking him to. I will not be an obstacle between him and someone he loves. We've already discussed it.

....

[Well he's flummoxed. But.]

Okay. Um.

[Hm]

Honestly I need to process that a bit and we're getting side-tracked. But we're definitely not done discussing it, because it really doesn't sound like you're happy about it.

Fine. Just know if you hurt him, I will kill you, human or not.

Aren't we getting ahead of ourselves again??

No.

[the most level glare here]

What do you mean "no"? And why was all this decided without me??

I mean he loves you, I highly doubt you don't like him at all, and he's already offered you a spiritual contract. If you become linked to him that way without the other, he'll be deeply hurt, even if he'd never complain. So I'm telling you now there's no point in being indecisive or whining about whether you deserve it.

[I'm the wife here, thank you. Learn your place you hideous little mistress.]

If you care for him, put your full effort in. If you don't, stay away from him.

[Math Rean because what just happened when did the conversation get away from him, what just happened????]

It's not his feelings I'm currently concerned about at this exact moment!

[Like actually yes he's concerned about Randy's feelings but that wasn't the original conversation and]

How did this conversation end up with me dating your boyfriend?! I was going to ask if you might be my primary contractor, actually!

Absolutely not.

[Why would you even ask?!]

Well I guess that answer is pretty predictable.

[Unlike anything else in the last couple minutes.]

Then there's no reason to change the subject to ask foolish questions.

I was going to ask it originally! You're the one who got on the topic of telling me to date your boyfriend!

It's a more relevant topic. What in the world made you think it was a good idea to ask me? Unless your contract is very different from the divine knight I piloted before, it seems to have little to no benefit to me.

Because I thought it'd be less complicated if my teammate was the primary contract holder. It's true it's likely to be more hassle to you than benefit, since my power isn't needed here, but that's also why I thought it might make more sense to ask you.

It's not like I'm going to insist, I just thought I'd ask if you were willing.

The last thing I need is to have you in my head, and having to share your wounds.

I get it. The rejection is accepted.

[Hmph!! Jeez now Rufus is all worked up and that's so inelegant.]

In that case, I believe our conversation is over.

Since when is it over? The only thing we resolved is you not contracting me!

I've said all that needs to be said.

I haven't!

Have you not?

[He says with a tone that makes it obvious he's not actually interested in anything else Rean has to say.]

Don't just dismiss me because you're done you jerk!

Forgive me. Perhaps I'm too accustomed to outranking you. Tell me, what is it you need to tell me so badly?

[Groaning. Why does no one take him seriouslyyyy]

I'm older than you by a few hundred years at least, you brat.

And yet you're the same as ever.

[He will not bow to your seniority!!]
