[His gaze is saddened but, thankfully, it is hidden under his hood. He knows Sofia is safer at home but they had talked about escaping everything in their world and somehow surviving in this world, and even if it was ridiculous, the idea of setting up a new life with her anywhere sounded perfect. It was why he had proposed

What's a fiancee?

[alltenfingers]

Someone you are engaged to be married to.

[leavveallhope]

I don't get your human vocabulary. Can you explain in more troll friendly language or whatever?

[alltenfingers]

Ah... someone you make a promise to, so that you will spend the rest of your lives together and have a family together.

[leavveallhope]

What's a family?

[This is hard . . .]

Is a fiance someone that you love or somefin'? Like, romantically, an' you want to mate with them?

[alltenfingers]

[He frowns a little but the rest of the conversation earns a nod.]

Exactly that. And you marry them to make a promise you will only be with them.

[leavveallhope]

Oh.

That's fuckin' stupid. I mean, them bein' taken away like that.

[alltenfingers]

Si, it is, but we can't change that unless we continue our endeavours. So, we work.

[leavveallhope]

I know what it's like to lose the most important person to you.

[He snarled.]

It was my fuckin' fault, though. I'm goin' to make up for that shit.

[alltenfingers]

It is never a pleasant experience.

[It's not his first time losing someone he loved with his whole heart.] Then you are in the right Order to do that.

[leavveallhope]

How are you dealin' with it?

[alltenfingers]

I simply work. Focus on something that is worthwhile. It's what I did in the past, it's what I do now. It's gotten me through fifty-two years, I think it is good enough.

[leavveallhope]

You're that old? That's pretty fuckin' impressive. Trolls usually never reach that age unless they're strong enough or smart enough to stay alive.

[alltenfingers]

[Ezio chuckles a little.] Si, I am that old. Humans do not reach this age without being strong and smart about their actions either, at least not in my world. [And his time period. Especially given things like plagues, cholera, dysentery, and all manner of other illnesses.]

[leavveallhope]

Really? Then you probably have my fuckin' respect. [Whoa, Ezio, you are an ANCESTOR. This is pretty fucking awesome.]

[alltenfingers]

Then you have my gratitude, Eridan. [IRL ugly laughter]
