A Proposal

[02:06] Helos wiggles his stump around, before shruggin. The pain was gone thanks to the healing elixer, but it was still... Weird.
(Helos Fengari)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[02:18] So much for that, she burnt the ladder by accident. They'd have to find a new ladder that was well over a hundred feet before they could go see what that trap door was about.

Once they finally came home, Yin would turn straight towards Helos and
Immediately there was a hug. Her face sideways so as to avoid jabbing him in the neck with her mask.

And after a moment he'd feel it, tears rolling off her face and onto him from where her cheek made contact with his body.

"I'm really lucky. I'm very lucky. You keep protecting me. You save me from my stupid decisions and from everything else. You sa you aren't good at anything, but that's a lie.

You're great."

Guilt wracked her. His arm turning into fine ash at the temple's implosion was a wound that could not be healed-at least not by normal means. And it'd stay with the Fengari forever, kit or not.

And it was gained by saving her from harm's way, something he had a tendency of doing often.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[02:31] Well, so much for venturing deep into the caverns beneath the church, turns out someone had accidentally burned the ladder. Whatever, they'd come back later, and with a ladder big enough to get down there.

Though before Helos left, his crimson eyes spotted something rather interesting, a shiny ring that had somehow managed to survive the explosion. Without even thinking, Helos picked it up, and slipped it into his pocket before floating off.

Though sadly once he they had returned to the mountain, there were no medics in sight.

Oh well, he'd just head home for now and relax, it's not like he was in pain or anything, the healing elixir had made sure of that. His stump would move towards the doorknob.

"Fuck..."

A sigh escaped from his lips, as he used his left hand to open the door, walking through it, before glancing around his home. Everything was exactly the way he had left it.

Nice.

Though before he can do, or say anything else. Yin was upon him, and unlike the other times he had returned home injured, he wasn't violently assaulted. No! This time it was something far more pleasant, a hug!

Helos' would move to wrap his arms around the kitsune, well arm and a stump around them, as he pulled them in for a tight embrace, and that's when he felt the tears.

"I..." There's a slight pause, as weighs his next words carefully. "Err, thank ya' Yin, but really... It's fine, and it ain't yer fault. I chose t'get in tha' way, so please don't feel guilty about that.

I can get a new arm, a mythril one, so it's... Fine."
(Helos Fengari)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[02:46] Yin went silent for what felt like hours until finally hugging Helos a little tighter, her head pulling back so she could look up into his eyes.

"Yeah....yeah we can get you a mythril kit. It won't be the same but, it'll be something similar right? I'm sure with a really talented medic we can even get you to feel through it again.

We'll wait on Sors, he'll probably be the best one for this."

A hand moved to grab Helos's left arm and place it on her chest, cloak moved aside so that Helos was feeling bare skin.

There he'd feel her heartbeat.

"It's only for you, and No one else. If I become a vampire in the future either through my Uncle or Octavia, I'll stay with you until you're dust, then I'll roam alone until I become dust too."

(Yin Invidia)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[03:00] "Well, it's a good thin' I already have a mythril kit on me, I uhh… I came prepared."

An awkward chuckle escaped from his lips, he'd get a new arm soon, either a metal one, or some sort of strange... Well, whatever Sors would probably do to his arm.

Probably something weird.

"Yeah, I'll go find Sors and ask 'em t'fix it later."

Though when the Kitsune grabbed his hand, and placed it up against their chest, blood immediately shot to his cheeks, as his face turned a brilliant shade of red, almost as bright as his eyes! A smile spread across his face, as he felt her heartbeat, and it only grew as she spoke.

"Hm...Well, after ya' said all o'that, I feel like I don't have any other option but t'..." There's a bit of a pause, as the Fengari attempted to pull away his one good arm, and provided Yin doesn't stop him, he'd reach into his pocket to pull out the strange ring he had picked up at the church. It radiated occult energy, which was surely something Yin would be interested in.

Or at least that's the hope.

Without wasting another moment, Helos dropped down onto one knee, as he held the Grand Keepsake out towards Yin.

"How about it, will ya' marry me?"
(Helos Fengari)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[03:11] "No other option but to...?"

The Kitsune allowed him to take back his arm, curiosity growing as a hand moved to rest in the same spot that Helos's did.

Truthfully, that was a little bold for Yin. But she didn't feel it to be something wrong, even if it was an action performed as a result of the moment.

Though it did leave her with a faster heartbeat than normal, along with rosey cheeks.

And when he pulled out the ring the first thing that she recognized was this item had belonged to the Grand Priest, whom they fought and imploded. Shotly after what occured was giggling of the fox.

"Marrying me with loot off a dead man...?"

A grin appeared on her face as she spoke her next three words

"I do."

Her left arm was raised with her fingers splayed out, directing the ring finger in the direction of Helos and waiting for him to place the ring on.

(Yin Invidia)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[03:19] "Listen, it's the only ring I had, plus it seemed nice enough..."

A chuckle escapes from his lips, as Helos shakes his head. Right, so maybe using the ring off of the guy he killed was probably a poor choice, Hel he could have just asked Garrick to make them a set of mythril wedding bands, but OH WELL, he'd already commited.

His heart was racing, as he waited for her response, he was smiling, of course he was, but there was a hint of nervousness to his face, almost as if he wasn't one hundred percent confident. Though as the she spoke those next two words, all the nervousness faded away, and a smile of pure unadulterated joy remained.

Without wasting anytime, Helos slid the spiked ring onto Yin's finger. Which now that he thought about it, might've caused a bit of pain to the kitsune? He hadn't studied the ring all that much, but it seemed like it had spikes on the interior of it?

Well... Here's hoping she's fine.

"I love ya'."

That's all he could really think to say, as he pushed himself back up to his feet, and quickly brought the Kitsune in for an embrace, wrapping his one good arm around her, as his right arm just kinda dangled there.

Today was a good day.
(Helos Fengari)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[03:19] {Item} You drop Grand Keepsake.
[03:27] He really should've checked that ring.

The moment it was slipped on she felt it. Spikes hidden within in some sort of mechanic sprung out and stabbed into her finger once the ring was settled, eliciting a loud "Ow!"

Instinctively she'd clutch her wrist and close the hand tightly, blood trickling down it that seemed to actually be disappearing.

Though if you paid attention it was actually being sucked back in towards the ring, a dark glow surrounding it as it did so.

That cold feeling of blood being drained from her would continue on for a moment until the ring was momentarily satisfied, after which she'd inspect it up close.

"Well...Shit, I love you too."

And as Helos wrapped her in a hug, she'd wrap her arms around him and slightly tilt her head before tiptoeing to give the Fengari a heartfelt passionate kiss.
(Yin Invidia)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[03:41] Yeah, he really should have checked that ring.

Helos didn't notice the spikes jabbing into Yin's finger, nor did he notice the blood trickling down it, or the fact that the ring was absorbing the blood. Which to be fair, was kinda… Really weird. What he did notice was the loud "Ow!"

Which if he hadn't noticed it, would have just been awkward. He lost an arm, but he didn't lose his sense of hearing. Well, regret kicked in immediately, he should have just gotten some mythril rings made, and as he brought them in close for an embrace, he'd ask a simple question.

Or well, he'd go to ask the question, only to find himself pulled into a heartfelt passionate kiss, one that he full heartedly returned, holding it for as long as the Kitsune wanted.

He was in no position to complain, or really stop, nor did he want to. He was just happy, really, really happy.

Though eventually, he'd break away from Yin, to ask. "Are ya' okay?"

Well, no matter what their response was, Helos would attempt to pick the Kitsune up bridal style. How would a man with one arm do that? Simple! He'd abuse a bit of his gravity magic to help make the whole process a lot easier.

"Come on, let's go t'bed."
(Helos Fengari)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[03:54] "It's fine, just means our marriage is permanent."

When he attempted to pick her up though, he'd find that she stopped him, a shake of her head.

"Lets check outside first.

If we find Sors so he can fix you up, you'll be able to carry me with two hands okay?

If not then I guess we can go to bed with just one."

Without waiting for a response, she'd pull him by his remaining hand towards the door.

"Lets go."
(Yin Invidia)
