How well do we know each other?: The fact that Iโve fallen asleep in your office on multiple occasions should answer that question.
Do you have a pet name for me?: Thereโs really not much to work with when one has a single syllable name. I believe I called you a nuisance once back in our academy days though?
Do I have a pet name for you?: Did you steal Dorotheaโs nickname for me, or did I imagine that?
Are you attracted to me?: Iโve never been one to be swayed over by crushes or flights of fancy butโฆ. I will admit youโre rather attractive.
Why do you want to marry me?: I donโt like talking about feelings much. Not that there arenโt exceptions of course. Claude, had I been in your position when you found meโฆ I probably wouldnโt have acted the way you did. In all honesty. I suppose that makes you the better man. Of course, I would give you my lifeย now. My point is, youโve seen me at my lowest point. You had every opportunity to take advantage of that - I was yourย enemy, for goddessโ sake. Instead you gave me shelter, you protected those dearest to me and the one that couldnโt be saved immediately? You worked with me until we could rescue herโฆ And had the choice to betray my trust at the end, and guarantee she wouldnโt turn our armies on you. You didnโt. I owe you not just my life, but my familyโs and my liegeโs. Whilst there was a limit to how much I couldnโt potentially act behind your back whilst clearly being watched, you still had to display some trust in meโฆ Claude, how could you not touch my heart in all that time? After everything?
Big wedding or Small wedding?: The moment Iva and Melly hear of this, what we want wonโt matter.
Do you see children in our future?: โฆPerhaps. It depends what your feelings are on the matter. I lean towards yes, but as Iโm hardly one for tradition, I wonโt be heartbroken if itโs a no.
ย ย it would be so easy to tease him. to crack jokes about there being a beating heart in there after all. but heโs bearing his soul to you -- albeit on paper -- and you canโt bring yourself to do anything but smile at him gently. you set the parchment aside, taking his hand and lacing your fingers together. you give them a squeeze for good measure.ย
ย ย ... will he still want this when he learns the truth? probably not. it would take him away from edelgard, and you know no matter how much he might love you, she will always come first. you accepted it. but hubert von vestra has a right to learn the truth.ย
โi would love nothing more than to spend my life with you, but...โ a soft exhale. here you go.ย
โthere is... probably something you should know about me first. iโm... sure you remember all the rumours surrounding my origins, back when we first started school. you correctly guessed that i was almyran, no doubt because of aura, but... thereโs more to it than that. can we go somewhere more... private? iโm going to tell you everything.โ
