Orchids and chocolates for the lady it is. [no matter where he has to get them.] Hopefully they allow food in your theatre.
no subject
I'll be sure to allow it. But you really don't need to get me anything! Just knowing that you'd be there is more than enough.
no subject
'Course I'd get you something. Showing up is hardly enough of a thank-you, especially for the star of the theatre.
[and that pie will keep cooling and gaius will keep stalling. he could still ask and just wait for the inevitable rejection. would that be simpler? he could just excuse himself to go through the pie and find what he'd left in there.
but he really wants to do this, doesn't he? like, he really, really wants to. he's quiet all over again, his eyes set on the small blue flames of the oven. he leans against her a little more, though not by much.]
Got any other plans besides the theatre?
no subject
[ nothing would make her happier than to be able to make gaius and the others smile. the fact that he would even want to come see her fills her with so much warmth and happiness that she has to look away for a second. sweet naga, get a grip, girl.
besides the theater, she doesn't really have anything set in stone, but... ]
Nothing specific, but... I... [ oh no this is really embarrassing and really nerve wracking because wow he's sitting right next to her. ]
I do want to get m-married? Maybe? Or um, spend... time with this person I really care about. Even if the theater never happens, at least I can still be with him...
no subject
ah, but that. gaius turns to look at her, his heart sinking.]
You've got a lucky devil in your life? [be smooth about this, gaius.] Actually, what am I saying? Of course you would. Is he back in Ferox?
no subject
No, he's here actually. Maybe you've heard of him?
[ pause.... for effect..... moment of truth hERE WE GO. ]
His name is Gaius.

No, it isn't, I- [oh my god.] You're not telling me it's someone else named Gaius, are you?
no subject
No, i-it's... you.
no subject

she really likes him
she likes him??
is that even right did he hear her incorrectly the second time too
he's stunned if you didn't know]
no subject
IT'S S-SUPPORT TIME YOU ARE NOT PREPARED FOR THE SAP THAT'S ABOUT TO HAPPEN]
Olivia. [reaching for her hand. with his free one, anyway.] You'd want a life by the side of a thief?
no subject
she laces their fingers together, finally looking up at him. ]
I want a life by your side. It doesn't matter to me if you're a thief... I just want to be with you, if that's okay?
no subject
his fingers squeeze around hers, in the valleys between her knuckles. he doesn't stop looking her in the eye.]
Olivia, let me cut you a piece of the pie. I made it with you in mind.
[his smile is warm. just trust him okay, he knows it's not an answer but you'll get your answer soon]
i keep doing these tags when i am half asleep i'm so sorry if they don't make sense
Sure! I'm excited to try it.
shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[oh god getting out of that blanket is like stepping into a freezer better MAKE THIS QUICK. thankfully he's classy enough with his slight-of-hand skills to get her a piece and sneak in the secret ingredient without her noticing. in a minute, he's back in the blanket with a piece of it for each of them, though his gets set down in front of him first. he offers hers over.]
There we are.
[PLEASE DON'T SWALLOW IT]
no subject
[ she takes it carefully, letting its aroma warm her from the inside out and the first bite is pretty much heaven. he's been getting really good at making them recently, maybe a little too good...
she almost drops the pie when she bites something a little too hard, hand coming up to cover her mouth as she, well, spits whatever it is out. ]
What-- [ oh my christ that is a big rock ] Gaius, is this a ring?
no subject
no subject
[ god she doesn't even know what to say, too happy beyond belief. is this really happening? is she dreaming? is he actually proposing to her?
it's hard to ignore the ring, though. especially with the way it shines and she's wondering how he even got this in the first place. she really wasn't expecting it; she didn't think he'd want to settle down, but this is what she wanted. this is what she dreamed about, even more than building her own theater.
she sets the pie down and takes his hand with the ring in hers, holding them to her heart. ]
I'd be honored to have you both... and to be your wife.
no subject
his smile feels unbreakable, his chest full and warm. he doesn't even know what to say, how to articulate his happiness. all he can think to do is hold her cheek and meet those beautiful eyes--up until his impulse grows too strong to hold back. he leans forward, head tipping, and captures her lips in a deep, heartfelt kiss.]
no subject
she loves him so much her heart is fit to burst. ]
no subject
You're stuck with me now. [he withdraws his arms to wipe the ring with his cape. then he takes her left hand, sliding the silver piece onto her ring finger.] I hope you realize that.
no subject
I wouldn't want it any other way.
