I think that ship has sailed. And Hawk would have to want that too.
It was mostly for religious reasons. We're not supposed to until we're married, but I can't get married.

[Goodsir's crash is working out weirdly well for him. He was expecting a lot more recriminations.
The power of letter writing!
Also does this mean Koby is... into everything they'd spoken of?]
I am most relieved to find you are not offended. I still feel quite disappointed in myself for not exercising more caution, but my heart is lighter knowing that you do not feel taken advantage of.
I do have a bit of one, yes. I've treated it quite nicely with the 'ibuprofen' though.
I am terribly sorry to ask, but I admit I feel most compelled to: you are not upset, for which I am grateful, and I am sorry if my inquiry is inappropriate, but am I correct in understanding that the interlude was somehow enjoyable for you?

Do you think he would? If you asked him?
Ah. Right. Well, I don't know if that priest is a legitimate church entity, so. If we were at sea, the highest-ranking officer could marry you two.
[like pirates of the caribbean which in every other context is not accurate, but. that part's true.]

I don't know. And it's complicated again. I keep doing this.
It has to be in a church for me.

[nobody writes letters anymore, kids these days, etc. etc., old man koby yells at cloud.]
I don't, at all. If I hadn't wanted to engage in anything, I would've simply walked away. [he could've managed to slip into the crowd until the otherworld-inspired urges passed, but -- he hadn't wanted to.]
I'm glad. Please let me know if you need anything else. I'll be in the library all day, most likely, but I'm happy to assist if need be. I feel sort of responsible, actually, having let you drink even though I knew it was your first Otherworld party.
Harry, if it hadn't been enjoyable for me, I wouldn't have done it. I haven't tried that particular type of interaction before very often -- but I've been curious about it. It's on my list. ˶ˆ꒳ˆ˵

With Harry.
Goodsir.
It's not complicated with him, I mean, but this whole thing is. I don't think I know how to do anything halfway. I don't know if I even want to.
It wouldn't have to be a big spectacle. But a church. My friends, my family, if they'd want to be there.

Ahhhhh, I'd wondered. You had such a nice time on your date, I'd meant to ask if you talked afterwards.
You like him a lot, then? And of course you don't, Tim, that's one of the things I admire about you. You aren't wishy-washy.
Would you walk down an aisle? That seems to be a big part of things.

I should've made sure you were okay. I know how compromised this place can make us.
Were you all right? Did you have a nice rest of your night?
Well. Yes. But I think there's something left undone. I did what you said, and I was promised a reward, so.
So.

So.
I do. He might be the sweetest man in the world. He understands me, and he trusts me. He's really something special.
I don't know. The woman is supposed to do that. I don't know what a gay wedding even looks like.

He is, yes. I had a very interesting encounter with him the night of the party too. Though
If you'd rather I didn't, I'll respect that, you know. He's lovely, but I can tell you feel strongly about him.
Me neither. It's not legal here, yet, so there isn't much reference. I suppose both of them walk down the aisle, if they're both women?

He told me.
It's okay, I think.
So if they're both men, do they skip that part? I don't know.
It's okay, I think.
So if they're both men, do they skip that part? I don't know.
He is, yes. And I think you're both lovely and wonderful, but it's my duty as his friend to tell you very sternly that I will never forgive you if you hurt him.
So. There.
After dinner, perhaps? Lincoln is more pleasant when she's eaten, and she'd like to meet you.

Koby, I assure you that my intentions toward Mr. Laughlin are most honourable. I'd not hurt deliberately him for all the world. Nor shall I ever trespass upon a heart already bestowed upon some other already favoured - in both the case of Mr. Laughlin and indeed yourself, trust that I understand my place.
Which reminds me, would your partner prefer to know of my intentions toward you?
I would greatly enjoy that!

That's an excellent answer, Harry. And I don't think you need to worry about my heart or Tim's being big enough -- it's not a trespass if it's freely given. Tim's just had some bad experiences, and I suppose I'm a little protective.
What intentions are those? Bathing-specific ones, perhaps? He's a great fan of baths as well, you know.
She's been looking forward to meeting you. I told her all about your crabs.

Good. He told me his intentions for you are very pure, after I gently threatened him, so. My fears are somewhat soothed.
If you're sure, okay?
Maybe they walk down together? I'm sure we could ask. If that's something you want. There has to be another priest here sooner or later.

I believe they are. You didn't give him the shovel talk, did you?
I guess the 2010s people would know.

He has. It's not my story to tell, but when he feels things, he feels them very deeply. It's hurt him before. I don't believe you'd ever deliberately cause him pain, but...
Ohhhh, romantic ones. I see. I'm taking notes, I'll have you know.
She made a lot of hungry sounds, and was most displeased to hear the crabs didn't travel here with you.

But I may accidentally. That remains a possibility.
Well, good. I can't be the only one making notations. But if you think a letter of intent would be appreciated by your partner, I am happy to send one.
Perhaps we will be fortunate enough some day to see the ocean again.
