	» Canon-compliant/canon continuation prompts » AUs into a canon/setting    ↳ Specific canons: Dragon Age, Exandria (Critical Role/D&D), Hyperion City (Penumbra Podcast), the Magnus Archives, Mass Effect, X-men, Star Wars, Wizarding World, etc - Open to any even if I'm canonblind!    ↳ General settings: Magic school (generic preferred over Hogwarts), mech pilots, merfolk, modern mundane (band, coffee shop, college, strippers, etc), modern urban fantasy, monster hunters, paranormal investigators, post-apocalyptic, vampires, etc » Dimension Hopping    ↳ Any of the above, but with canon memories intact.    ↳ Additional general settings for this prompt: floating sky city, generic sci-fi/space, underwater city » Canon alteration AU (ie: what if Hawke was caught by the Circle as a child? What if Link was royalty instead of Zelda? etc) » DWRP setting/continuation    ↳ Duplicity, Noctium, open to others at request ☆ Any of these can be combined! ☆ » Make a comment calling out any of my characters by putting their name in the subject line. » If you want to play in a canon I'm not familiar with (a massive list of canons I do know can be found here) please include a starter with a general idea of setting so I have some info to go on when responding. If it's a canon I am familiar with however, you don't have to include a starter if you don't want to! A general idea of the tone you want and a concept for the PSL would be super though, if you have one in mind. Feel free to contact me on plurk (reikofanel) or discord (heinrippy#6849) if you want to plot before posting. ☆ Notes:    ↳ Shipping with some characters will be easier than shipping with others, but I'm open to it for all of my characters. Some have caveats, but I'll let you know if you tell me you're interested in shipping with them.    ↳ Communication is key! Please let me know if something's getting boring and I'll let you know the same so we can try and throw interest back into the thread, or we can end it amicably. This is a hobby! If one of us isn't having fun, then we should make it fun.    ↳ I tag about once or twice a week, sometimes more and occasionally less, mostly because of work and evening commitments. Please be conscious of this when we thread. ☆ Absolute No:    ↳ a/b/o    ↳ Grimdark hopeless plots/settings    ↳ Mpreg    ↳ Non-consensual sex (dubcon ok)    ↳ Torture porn    ↳ Underaged sex (younger than 17)

The outburst from him is less of a shock to her, when it comes, because she had sensed his distress throughout the ceremony itself, the tremor of tension held within his taller frame, to say nothing of the emotion she had gleaned when their hands had briefly been bound together, her knuckles resting beneath the strength of his palm as the red cord had been twined carefully around them. It seems he is merely waiting for the opportunity when they will be fully left alone to make his feelings on the subject fully known — but at the start, Vanessa does not say anything at all, pivoting to face him from where she has stepped further into the room toward the foot of the bed, her hands loosely clasped in front of herself.

In moments such as this, she has learned that it often proves more helpful to simply wait until the worst of the furor has abated, until the feelings that have been brewing within him begin to dissipate and lose their intensity. She simply waits, patient, unspeaking, until he practically collapses into a seat against the bed — and then she steps forward, only a minute hesitation before she ultimately reaches out to set a hand against his shoulder.

It is nothing beyond how she has already touched him before — she had held onto him in the dance they had shared out in the center of the ballroom only less than an hour ago — but in the room, alone with him now, it is a contact she initiates with even more awareness of him, uncertain if it would even be proper now.

Then again, considering that the city has all but bound them together in something that is being referred to as marriage, perhaps any contact between them does carry more significance, more weight — especially in light of what they are intended to do in this room together, the manner in which they are supposedly meant to see that ceremony officially consummated.

"There is nothing they can demand of us from here," she murmurs, trying to reassure him with soft words. "For all they know, we will... comply with their intentions for us, while perhaps merely spending the next three days simply getting to know one another better."
