...I am...
Happy?
Yes. I believe that I am happy. Joulaim and I had a discussion today, and we...worked through our differences? I suppose. It is strange to me, even with Haesia, but I believe that I enjoy this feeling.
Our conversation went as follows:
Chstavr: *clears throat* Joulaim. I've come to the realization that after all this time, things have been very wrong between us.
Joulaim: Too true, my honored enemy...
Chstavr: With Bivran nearing his death, I see that all this time I was playing into the Court's game. My anger has been misdirected towards you.
Joulaim: By no means...we have all been played for fools. ~sigh~ I have to wonder at my own actions as well, and do not doubt you have seen your position is just and fair.
Chstavr: And you as well, I know that even as you wonder, you believed at the time what you were doing was right. It is a trait I have come to respect and...cherish in you.
Joulaim: ~blink~ ~gasp~ Chstavr...are you...are you saying what it is I think you are?
Chstavr: *looks away* Joulaim. It is time to end this charade of hate and dispassion.
Joulaim: It is beyond time...I have longed for this moment more than you can possibly know...
Chstavr: I as well. *starts forward* Joulaim... let me have what I crave.
Joulaim: All I am, all I have, anything you want...is yours. <3
Chstavr: *hugs him* I love you. <3
Joulaim: ~kisses, deeply and passionately, hoping to convey the feelings that words can not adequately express~
Chstavr: *kisses back just as passionately, holding close* I never want to let you go...
Joulaim: My darling, how cruel that fate had kept us apart for so long.
Chstavr: Never again, my love. From now on we will live in love and harmony until the end of time.
Joulaim: How I've longed to hear those words. <3! I am yours, forever. <3
Chstavr: But what of our lovers? How could we ever possibly express how we truly feel to them?
Joulaim: Why should we forsake them? We should be married as a group and live in peace and harmony as a family for all eternity. <3
Chstavr: Family... *smiles* It is all I have ever wanted. <3
Joulaim: It is, indeed, a dream come true. Come, let us consumate our happily ever after. <3
Chstavr: Yes, my love. I am all yours. <3
Joulaim: ~kisses once again and pulls down the curtain for privacy~
Chstavr: *laughs* Joulaim~! <3
Joulaim: ~bows~ Sufficient, dear?
Chstavr: *smirks* Moreso than I had previously imagined.
Joulaim: So glad I could be of service to you. <3
