A second ago she was at work in the temple of Erastil in Sothis, which was actually going pretty okay, all things considered. Now she's in a grassy field with a couple fruit trees and a table and chairs and some notebooks and pens.
This is unexpected and requires a ton of power and is therefore sort of inherently terrifying. And she's alone, and defenseless, and she doesn't know where Verita is.
She mills around in steadily increasing amounts of distress until Hagan appears, just as suddenly.
" - well, right then, yeah, but that was under duress and also we weren't married. I don't - I was worried that if we did it under the most horrible conditions possible then I'd - never want to touch you again. And that would be upsetting. And I guess I was also worried that it was wrong and would ruin things some other way, if we did it without being married."
"Gosh. Okay. I am - not totally sure I have words, here. Did it ever feel good when he touched you."
"Did he do things that were supposed to feel good and they didn't work or was he not trying at all."
"There are... ways you can hold yourself to feel less terrible when you're ill? But I - think that is not what you're talking about."
"I mean, I think there are humans who do, uh... sometimes... touch themselves in ways that feel nice to them. I just... don't know very much about this. Personally."
"...okay. I don't know how to ask more useful questions, I do not actually know if your anatomy is like fairy anatomy. There are half-fairies so there must be some compatibilities but that's not enough to get an answer actually."
"My plan is to not do things that are awful. If it turns out there are some things that are not awful we could do those."
"Okay. I guess if we were married we could... attempt to find out. And... stop, if they were awful?"
Snuggle.
"Are you going to be... disappointed, or upset, if it's - if it's always awful - ?"
"No? I am a little worried that if we promise to try to never have sex with any other people and then all the sex I have for the rest of my life is when someone insisted this would...hurt, or something. But maybe it'd be fine."
Nodnod. "Yeah. It's - kind of - I'd understand if you didn't think it was a reasonable thing to ask. Normally when people get married they take it for granted that they'll have sex with each other, so it's - less of a sacrifice, but - "
"It might not bother me at all. I just think I should not promise without having really tried it. I know that some people recommend when you have a slave making sure they have sex that's nice for them sometimes so they don't just start feeling sad at the whole concept."
