I will never ever regret marrying you but the thing that would come closest to making me is if my death brought you more suffering than my presence ever caused you joy.

We've got forever now. All the rest of eternity, until thirty thousand years doesn't seem like much at all.

Yeah. Yeah, we do.

I love you so much. I never want you hurt like that again.

Don't die.

I have no plans to ever die again.

We'll keep you safe this time. Won't let anything happen - Iove you so much, missed you so much -

I love you and missed you too. I'm glad I didn't need to wait until we had the ability to storm Mandos before I got you back.

Yeah.

Thrill of delight at Idaia discussing storming Mandos for him.

I wasn't just going to leave you! You're mine, I'm never letting go.

I hope you mean that entirely literally because I don't want to stop holding you for several decades.

I was not actually referring to literally but I certainly don't object.

Good because I'm pretty sure Imliss and Rúmil and possibly also the other one would be upset if I were literally not letting go of you over your objections.

Little my-father probably wouldn't notice or have an opinion.

Dearheart, if I really wanted you to let go of me and you weren't, I'm pretty sure I could make that happen.

Hugs. I don't know, at the moment it feels like Morgoth himself couldn't make that happen.

Given that I do not in fact object I'm going to take that as a good thing. Hugs. Hugs and kisses.

Yes. Lots of those.

And after a little while of neither of them mentioning anything even a little depressing the hand in his hair tightens a little.

Aaaah.

I went through puberty missing you and I want you very badly.

This species - accidental children -

Oral birth control as of a few decades ago, also makes some of the side-effects of human fertility less unpleasant so I'm already on it.

I love you.

Pretty outfit - don't want to tear it -

Love you, she sighs happily. Get your arms under the jacket part so I can take that off, then I'll turn around in your arms so you can undo the buttons down the front of the corset?

He does this.

And then it's trivial to wriggle out of her skirt and panties and slide one of his hands that's still near her chest to cup her breast and less trivial to keep assorted noises in osanwe instead of verbalizing them.
