The serpent and the Hawks

[Addina]

"Of course it is my duty to care for you all your life! Is 1800 a month better?

[Marian Hawke]

"...I mean yes, 1800 is better than 600, but I suppose that means I don't need to save up."

[Addina]

 "Oh good!" I say relived. "I can't have you suffering after all." I smile gently "do you think I need to up carvers pay too?"

[Marian Hawke]

"Probably won't hurt." She struggles to keep the wild, manic laughter inside her mouth where it belongs.

[Addina]

"Ok I will." I smile gently at her. I look up then at the sound of footsteps and see my father Oberon walking towards us with carver trailing behind "hello father. This is Hawk she's a winter elf and my intended also carvers sister"

[Carver Amell]

For his part, Carver looks terrified: pale, swallowing hard as if to avoid vomiting. Hawke frowns, but curtseys before Oberon, filing that away for a 'later' problem. 

[Oberon]

"Daughter!" I smile happily "you've picked a lovely bride!" I say kissing her hand "do you mind if I borrow your page again love?"

[Marian Hawke]

"For what?" blurts Marian, already expecting to get in trouble for this. But... Carver looks bad off.

[Oberon]

I raid an eyebrow "why for the joys of his excellent play fighting". Smirk slapping his ass playfully

[Marian Hawke]

"Oh? You're teaching himc ombat?"

[Oberon]

"He is an excellent sheath.

[Marian Hawke]

marian frowns, then her eyes go wide. "Oh, wow, Carver, I had no idea you were into that sort of thing."

[Carver Amell]

Carver scowls. "I'm not."

[Oberon]

I chuckle "now now my sweet one no need to play fight we're not alone" I smirk

[Carver Amell]

Carver pulls away from him, scowling. "I'm not. If you touch me again I'll fucking kill you."
