Shark Bait (PoisonousIvee/Mr.Aznable)

"I love you, too, Sereina...~" He said softly. After a couple day's of rest and starting her new job as the royal apothecary's apprentice, Gio spent his time studying elven marriage ceremonies. It was a binding of two houses, the books told him, and both families would join as one. He didn't know anything about Sereina's family, and he knew for a fact that his father would disown him once news spread of his dissent. He closed the book and resigned himself to the fact that in the eyes of the elves, their marriage was a fraud. "Oh, Sereina..." He muttered, his despair causing him to dissociate, "Please forgive me...I ruined everything..."
 
This wasn't going to be as easy as he'd thought. There were possibilities for loopholes, but they would be hard to navigate.
 
He sat and despaired, much too upset right now to think or look for a work around. He would have to tell Sereina, and she would hate him, leave him. He didn't want that, not at all.
 
When she entered their room at the tavern, Gio was still dissociated. He barely looked up when she entered, "Sereina..." He sounded so sad, "I'm sorry...please don't leave me..."
 
"We can't get married...we can't have a big ceremony like I want for you...we have no kin, it can't be done..." His nails dug into his hide, blood blooming under the sudden penetration but he hardly noticed.
 
She frowned and moved to try and ease his grip. "Gio, we don't need a big ceremony.. there are small chapels that will do small ceremonies.."
 
He looked up and life flickered a bit in his dead eyes, his grip loosening as she pulled his hands gently, "Really...? But elves are so traditional, I thought..."
