[ID: A comic drawn in black lines against a white background. Barry, a middle aged, human man, is standing in front of Lup, an elven woman with curly hair and freckles. She is seated on the arm of a chair and he is standing before her, wearing a slightly singed cape and holding her hands. He looks down at her as he says, “Right, so Lup, I would kneel and all, but a couple years ago I broke my knee and my doctor said I should avoid doing strenuous activities like that. Did I ever tell you that story? I was rock climbing, or well not rock climbing like the actual sport, but there were rocks and climbing involved. I was in my back yard. I should show you the spot sometime, anyway. I would kneel, but I got a bad knee, so I’m gonna stand instead. I guess you can kneel if you want, but anyway wanna get married?” Lup smiles and nods, tears welling in her eyes. She jumps up and pulls him into a hug, yelling. “Of course! Yes, yes absolutely!” An audience of other elves applaud awkwardly. There are exclamations of “uh” and wow,” and “eh?” One particular elven woman in a shall and many jewelry says, “Oh, Congratulations.” Another elven woman with short, curly hair and big earrings asks, “How long have you two been dating?” Lup and Barry both exclaim delightedly, “Three weeks!” There are sparkles around their faces. Taako’s hands immediately fly up to his mouth to poorly muffle the sound of his pained laugher. His shoulders are shaking and there were tears starting to form in the corner of his eyes. Kravitz asks, with some concern, “Are you alright dear?” End ID]
Based off of The Worst Candlenights Ever by @kravkalackin, which was one of the first fics I read when I got into TAZ and still kills me every time, this scene in particular. Also the first panel is type because I couldn’t get all the words to fit with my handwriting. Happy Candlenights!
