2 truths and a lie; daemon: chainsawd

[fiachdubh]

[ If you were to see how this came about, you might be amused. Turns out Adam Parrish, wanting revenge from the Employment AMA network post, has decided to take over Chainsawd while Ronan is in the bathroom.

It's the work of a few minutes. He's stealthy. ]

2 TRUTHS AND A LIE
Preferred Alias: Ronan Lynch; the Greywaren

1. I coo over baby goats in tiny sweaters when I think there's no one around to see.
2. I own more t-shirts than the gap, but I wear the same shredded one every day because I think it makes me look like a badass
3. My tattoo is designed to be dangerous and full of claws, and beaks, and thorns (but the flowers are my boyfriend's favourite part)

One Of These Is A Lie

and you're already married?

[helical]

What do you mean already

[fiachdubh]

a year and a half is fast, is what I mean
it's taken me a year to get the courage to kiss Adam
you got married in almost that time

[helical]

Its not by Shadowhunter standards
Plus we stayed in another world that kind of helped us figure things out. We didnt have to prepare to fight a war while we were there, and we didnt have the luxury to take the time. I wasnt immortal like he is
I probably wouldnt have had the courage to kiss Magnus if it wasnt for circumstances, so taking a year makes sense to me

[fiachdubh]

[ For a little while, Ronan doesn't respond. There is something here that could a real can of worms, and he avoids it. ]

whatever works for you, I guess

why get married at all?

[helical]

Why not

( he could answer that easily, but he doesn't feel particularly inclined to give more details than he already has. its a lot more than hes pretty much ever said to anyone on the topic.)

[fiachdubh]

waste of time and money for a commitment you don't need to make to the world, just to one person

[ Aka, Ronan never wants to talk about his feelings, or for people to know he has any at all, thank you very much. It's scary enough that Adam knows. ]

[helical]

It took us five mins to fill out the form at City Hall and sign it and zero money

[fiachdubh]

you didn't even get blackout drunk?

what's the point? what did it change?

[helical]

In some ways... nothing. But we put it on paper and now we're husbands instead of just boyfriends. Its kind of changed the depth of things i guess. Its hard to explain and kind of private

That kind of promise... it means a lot to make and to sign. You dont need to get married to make it, but we wanted to

[fiachdubh]

[ Ronan disagrees that changing the word you use means anything. He could call Adam his husband right now, if he wanted, and what would it change if it wasn't official?

It's all societal bullshit, which he detests. But whatever, if Magnus and Alec prefer it, that's their prerogative. ]

I don't want to trap him, he has a lot of hang-ups about that. I'm pretty sure he's it for me, but it's too early to tell if he feels the same.

[helical]

Havent you guys just started dating
Go at your pace. this was ours, thats all, its not some example you have to follow

( he could say marriage isnt necessary, but he's too traditional for that. hes not sure why two people who love each other wouldnt want to commit in that way. )

[fiachdubh]

we've been together for a few months
but I've loved him for... longer

He hasn't.

[helical]

Sometimes it takes people more time. Doesnt mean he feels it less

[fiachdubh]

maybe, maybe not
i'm not doubting him
i'm just saying, i've had more time to get used to it

he didn't realize he also liked guys until me
idk if he actually likes guys, or if it's just me

[helical]

You could ask him about that
but does it change anything?

[fiachdubh]

i don't think so

[helical]

so it doesnt really matter what the answer is. he might not have it figured out himself

[fiachdubh]

it doesn't matter. i just think about this stuff a lot
it's still all so new

[helical]

Yeah. Takes a while to just...
I dont know. Sometimes i still can hardly believe im with him and that hes with me
And we're married, so
