Wh—.. Asani… [Kisses her hand.] I’m more than happy for this to happen.

[dancingandmagic]

[Whoops, now tears are gathering tin the corners of her eyes.] Me, too.

[beautywithpurpose]

Of course, that’s why I asked. [Morn reaches across the table and takes Asani’s free hand in both her own, not too tightly, but firmly.] I mean it. I want you with me. And I think this… uh, this is the next step, you know?

[dancingandmagic]

Yes! [Asani squeezes Morn's hand once.] I just...never thought it could happen.

[beautywithpurpose]

[Morn doesn’t cry. She just doesn’t. Still, she visibly tears up a little, and looks off to the side.]

I’m real happy about this. Sorry. I must not look all that tough.

[dancingandmagic]

You're perfect! [Asani is, for once, not the one threatening to cry.] It, it'll be so nice to be with you all the time and, and not have to take a cart.

But, but are you sure? You want to do this, with, with me?

[beautywithpurpose]

Do you? Do you really? [Her entire face lights up, lopsided smile returning.] Really?

[dancingandmagic]

[Asani nods.] I want to.

[beautywithpurpose]

I bet you could find a job ‘round here, if you wanted. I’m sorry, I shoulda thought about that beforehand…

[dancingandmagic]

No, no, I-- [She takes a deep breath.] I want to. I do. I, I can sort something out.

[beautywithpurpose]

I can support you! I can do that. I have plenty of money, Asani. I’ve been savin’ for a long time. There’s a tiny cabin I’m lookin’ at… listen, you don’t have to, if you don’t want to… don’t feel forced.

[dancingandmagic]

No, no, I don't feel forced! I just... [Asani plays with her dress, not certain what to say.] What would I do while you're at work? I've never, um, managed a house before. Should I find a job here? I...

[beautywithpurpose]

No! No, Asani, not there, I wouldn’t make you live there. I mean in a house of our own… nothin’ too big or fancy. Simple. Not too close to where I work, but close enough so I can get there…

[dancingandmagic]

Oh. Ohhh...I'm so sorry, I know you wouldn't, I just... [Asani is embarrassed, and blushes scarlet.]

I, oh, in Riften? [She chews her lip.] My job, though...

[beautywithpurpose]

So I know you live sorta… far away, and I thought to myself… hey… maybe she shouldn’t live so far away… and so then… I thought… maybe I could be the one to help you with that, and… do you wanna, maybe… live together? [Her eyes dart from side to side before at last resting on Asani, a hopeful expression present.]

[dancingandmagic]

[That startles Asani. She isn't sure what to say.] Live...together? Here?

[A hundred thoughts at once.] Do you, you mean in the Bordello? I, I can't live there. I can't. [She doesn't want to upset Morn, but that place frightens her to the core.]

[beautywithpurpose]

No, no! Everything’s great… that’s why I’m nervous. I wanna make it even better than it is. Hear me out?

[dancingandmagic]

Better? [Asani isn't sure what to expect, so she just waits nervously.]

[beautywithpurpose]

You heard the lady. [Talen-jei did indeed, and before long, wine is brought over for the both of them. They’d wait a few minutes before getting dinner…]

So, uh… uhm. About the… that thing I had to say.

[dancingandmagic]

[Morn is nervous, and it's making her nervous. She carefully sips her wine, trying not to make it too obvious. She is bad at this.] Is...is everything alright?

[beautywithpurpose]

Good. And like you overheard, I’ve got somethin’ to talk to you about over dinner. [She grabs them both a table and, after holding out the seat for Asani, takes one herself, gesturing her customary drink over and looking expectantly to her partner.]

[dancingandmagic]

Oh! Um, wine, please? [Asani settles in, more comfortable each time she goes with Morn. Asking for things she wants is still awkward, though.]

[beautywithpurpose]

Also ‘cus you know I’m gonna pick somethin’ good to eat. [Gives her a last kiss and places a hand at her back, seeking to guide her to the Bee and Barb.]

[dancingandmagic]

I trust you! [She giggles.]

[beautywithpurpose]

Me? C’mon. [She sniffs her wrist, which probably smells like very little.] I bet I smell like sweat.

Got a hankerin’ for anything in particular?

[dancingandmagic]

I'm never picky. I just want to spend time with you.

[beautywithpurpose]

Missed you too, gorgeous. But, are you hungry? I’ll take you someplace for food…

You smell nice, by the way. Just sayin’.

[dancingandmagic]

[Asani laughs, blushing.] You, too. Just saying.

I...could eat something. It was a long ride.

[beautywithpurpose]

Guess you should think again, hm? [Strokes her hair back, holding her close.] You been on the road long, right?

[dancingandmagic]

Most of the day. [She shuts her eyes and sighs, happy.] I missed you.

[beautywithpurpose]

[Whips around and clutches her chest with a breath, clearly having a start at first, but then she laughs.] Asani! You scared me, lady. [And with that, she leans forward to give her a hello kiss.]

[dancingandmagic]

[Asani wraps her arms around Morn in a hug, laughing into the kiss.] I never thought I could scare you.

[beautywithpurpose]

Hopin’ I can talk to Asani soon…. she’s sposed to be visiting. 

[dancingandmagic]

Talk to me about what?
