In the Room of Requirement

Feb 16, 2006 14:35

Psyche sits beside her husband on the bed, her head leaning against his shoulder and their legs stretched out in front of them and overlapping. The room around them is bright and warm, filled with cushions and white columns and a long low table laden with fruits and wine. There's a bookshelf near the bed, filled with the novels Psyche's been ( Read more... )

((Much with the Hedwig love. This is my favorite song in the movie, and I actually have the soundtrack version and Rufus Wainwright's cover. Which is awesome.

Um. You might want to keep in mind, though, if you're reading this thread, that it's...not the happiest song ever.))

((Actually, that song makes the original post kind of bittersweet, I think.))

"I'm glad you've finally realized that." Eros responded with a smirk, quite pleased at Psyche's capitulation. Dearly as he loved his wife, he hated in equal measure to argue with her, and her acknowledgement that his deeds hadn't been that bad went a long way towards making up for the slight poutiness that seemed to afflict him whenever they argued. Not that they'd argued, per se, simply that Eros thought Psyche was being a little paranoid. After all, what could the little mortals to do to them, after all?

Born a god and having been immortal for his entire existence, Eros didn't have the same understanding that Psyche had of death. Psyche had been mortal, once upon a time, and she had a better grasp of what pain was than Eros, who had only once been wounded (at Psyche's hand with a drop of too-hot oil), and never died. He'd saved her, when she'd fallen into eternal slumber, but he'd never diedSomeone who has never truly been hurt cannot possibly fear it ( ... )

Psyche rolled her eyes, and she let out a huffed breath that was half laugh, half sigh. "I always did realize it. I just don't think you realize...oh, what's the use." She kissed his neck in an adminitory manner. "You only listen to me when I say something I shouldn't. And then you don't listen when I try to retract ( ... )

"My sweet, dear, best-loved Psyche, I listen to everything you say." Eros protested with a laugh, sky-blue eyes alight with amused affection as he twisted around a little to press a kiss to her cheek. Magnanimously, as if he was making a very great concession, he added, "I just don't always obey."

Laughter danced in his eyes brightly as he stroked her arm gently and prompted her, "If Mr. Teh-ah-time-eh what? Will appreciate having the girl that killed him as his match? Possibly not, but I do think the two of them would be good for each other. And a night of wild sex should do wonders for the Dumbledore-Voldemort situation ( ... )

"I know better than to finish that kind of thought. Do you remember a certain night in London in 1522? 'It isn't that Henry's any better or worse than his grandfather, as far as chasing after women,'" she quoted her past self. "'I only wonder what would happen if he were to fall genuinely, desperately in love with some young woman who didn't fall into his bed immediately.' And you said, 'It can't hurt to find out. The younger Mistress Boleyn who's just come back from France has a certain something.'' And you wonder why I always say, 'that wasn't a suggestion ( ... )
