Age: 51
Physical Description: Reuna is a striking study in contrasts. She is just slightly above female average, height-wise, standing at 5'8", and is slender, with a fragile bone structure that makes her look weak; this is, of course, balanced out by her strength and skill in magic. Her hair is long, descending to her waist, and is purely black, which is a sharp opposition to her pale-skinned features. Her eyes are the color of amethyst, dark and intense, and are usually the only method from which one can derive her mood, as she very rarely displays her emotions via facial expressions. She appears young, in her mid-thirties, although if one looks closely enough, they can see the beginnings of fine lines around her eyes and mouth. Although few have ever seen them, due to her tendency to keep herself fully covered from neck to toes, she has whip-mark scars covering most of her back, and scars from long periods spent in manacles around both of her wrists, remnants from her days as a slave.
-----------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: Generally, Reuna wears one of five sets of identical robes, with high collars and long slightly-loose sleeves, in black, dark grey, purple, dark green, and dark blue. Commonly-carried equipment consists of her personal grimoire, a traveling writing kit (with ink well, quills, and writing desk), and a belt with pouches that contain various items (both magical and non); though perhaps not considered equipment, her raven companion Karrik always accompanies her.

Edward's answer made Reuna chuckle. He really was far too sweet for accommodating their curiosity. She continued eating, moving on from salad to sandwich with gusto, and then once everyone was done, she stood to began collecting plates. Gavin's question made her glance toward the raven on the windowsill, giving him a silent command to play nice, to which the bird cawed and flapped his wings. "Of course. Just be careful, and don't go too far from the tower."
The raven would follow Gavin and Paulie outside, and once the boy and his animal companions had left the room, she set the gathered plates down on the table, moving over to Edward after doing so. Leaning down, she gave him a soft kiss, then leaned her brow against his as she spoke quietly. "..That 'Auntie Reu' thing is going to get awkward, eventually. I'm starting to regret suggesting he call me that." Despite her words, she sounded vaguely amused.

Age: Yesterday.
Physical Description: Edward Laurént stands at 5'10. He has midlength black hair, and a clean shaven face. Previously his facial features were hard to remember, since he has begun wearing glasses they have become easier to recall. He looks to be in his late twenties, with a strong jaw, mid set cheek bones, straight narrow nose, and full lips. He appears to be in decent physical condition, though he is a bit pale.
Edwards eyes are an odd shade of blue, and they quite literally glow. With his glasses on, the glowing is the only remarkable thing about them. When you stare into his eyes when his glasses off though... it can be an odd experience. Staring into his eyes gives the impression that time has ceased to flow. Then you become aware of just how fast you are moving through the void of space. Most students avoid looking into his eyes.

Clothes and Equipment: Previously Edward only owned one suit of clothing. He retains these clothes, as a sort of work uniform. His style of dress when working is odd. He wears: sturdy blue cotton pants, an over sized coat of some unknown material, a sweater with a hood sewn onto it, and a large scarf. Each piece of clothing fluctuates in state of repair, and cleanliness through the day. If these clothes were not so eccentric, he could easily be considered a beggar while wearing them.
Edward has begun to expand his wardrobe in recent months. His first new accessory is a pair of glasses. Unlike other time mages, Edward struggled with turning off his time sight, rather than turning it on. His glasses are enchanted to suppress it. When not working he tends to wear casual clothing. Loose white shirts, and simple leather leggings. He also has a handful of stylish, if simple mage robes for special occasions.

"Oh and why is that?"
Edward's voice has a teasing quality. His smile says he knows, or at least hopes he knows why. Still he wants to hear her say it. As he waits for her response he draws her into his lap. Hugging her close enjoying her soft weight pressed against his body. He just can't help himself. Whenever she is near he wants to pull her to him. To hold the woman that held his heart, just as he held hers. In these moments he is as at ease as when he watches his son play. A deep enduring joy that makes him forget all his troubles.

She quirked a brow at him as he spoke, but she saw that smile.. that knowing smile. So, he just wanted her to say it, hm? Well, she was about to, when he pulled her into his lap, and then her words got derailed by a soft laugh. Still, she wasn't complaining. She cupped his cheek in her hand and leaned in, brushing her lips against his - not quite a kiss, but a tease, as she murmured softly. "It's a bit odd for him to call the woman who is in love with his father 'auntie', don't you think? Especially should things.. happen." They hadn't exactly been careful during their pleasurable interludes.. then again, Reuna didn't even know if she could conceive at all. Trying not to think about that, she kissed him sweetly, then laid her head on his shoulder, simply enjoying the moment of peace with her lover.

Edward thought about asking her another teasing question. He will be doesn't do so right away. Instead they just sit for a time. It was another beautiful memory to a rapidly growing collection. To just sit with her in his lap. Knowing his son was outside playing. Edwards rests his cheek on the top of her head. After sometime he lets out a low contented sigh. He kisses her hair softly and asks the teasing question. His tone though sounds more hopeful than teasing.
"What would you rather he call you?"

Simply resting with Edward was so relaxing, so peaceful. Her eyes had drifted shut at some point, and Reuna was contemplating whether or not she should get up, when she felt him move and press a kiss to the top of her head. When he spoke, she blinked her eyes open, then raised her head from his shoulder to look up at him. She hadn't missed that hopeful tone in his voice - she had known him long enough to recognize the different inflections, now. Her brow furrowed ever so slightly as her gaze searched his, and it was several very long moments before she spoke, her quiet voice filled with an odd blend of confusion, wariness, and optimism. "He could call me simply Reuna.. but I already told him he could address me as his mother, if he wishes.. he doesn't appear to like that idea very much."
She paused, her hesitation clear, although whether it was because she was trying to find the right words, or if she was trying to decide if she should say what she was already thinking, was anyone's guess. Finally, she managed to wrangle the words up from somewhere inside herself, the statement spoken breathlessly. "..What do you want him to call me..?" Her heart tumbled wildly in her chest, mimicking the slow, anxious roll of her stomach. Did he.. no, surely not.. they had only just become lovers, their mutual feelings aside...

Edward can feel her heart beat increase. Is it fear or excitement? He isn't quite sure. Of course what he wants her to be called is obvious. Since realizing them he has done little to disguise his feelings. Still he knows that it is probably too early for such talk. So instead he leans and whispers in her ear.
"Hmmm Reu might be good for the moment. Well you already told him he could call you mother. I think, perhaps in time we should give that option more consideration."

All the air fled from Reuna's lungs in a rush as she heard the last part of his sentence, and for a moment, she was so dazed and oxygen deprived that she was giddy. Her head spun, and she raised a hand, pressing fingertips to her brow, as though that would stop the world from whirling about her so wildly. He was saying.. he wanted to.. one day he might..? She gazed at him with wide eyes and a disbelieving expression, unsure how to feel. She had never really considered marriage as an option. Did she want to get married? She wasn't even sure. It seemed like a logical result of their relationship, and she always had been fond of logic. "You.. do? You mean you would want to.. do that? With me?" Fragmented sentences galore. Apparently, Edward had broken her brain.

Edward blinked at her reaction. He still isn't quite sure if she is surprised in a good way, or a bad one. She hasn't made any attempt to pull away which he takes as a good sign. He very lightly presses his lips to her forehead, then moves down and kisses her lips. Hoping this will help calm her down. He then says in a voice filled with as much love as he can manage.
"In time yes. I think I would most certainly like to wed you. Is that so strange?"

That kiss to her brow made her smile slightly, and the expression lingered when he kissed her lips, but she was still watching him with a hint of anxiety. When he spoke, she tensed on his lap, her fingers twisting into her skirts. So he did want to marry her, one day. Reuna was having a hard time wrapping her brain around this. What could she give him, other than her love? She had nothing. She might not even be able to give him more children.. assuming he wanted more children, that was. Did he? She opened her mouth, couldn't seem to find the words to respond, and closed it again.
Finally, she found the words, somewhere. "Do you want more children, Edward?" As soon as they left her mouth, she winced at the words, and hurried to explain. "Children are usually a result of marriage, if not a goal in and of themselves, and while I adore children - I love Gavin as though he were my own - I do not know if... I may have nothing to give you but my love, were you to ask me to be your wife." ..Did that answer his question? She wasn't even sure. Her brain was such a jumble of emotions and fears, right then.

Edward could feel her tense in his lap. Her words the fear and anxiety in them made his heart break. He brings hand to the side of her head and pulls her in close. Pulling her into his chest, stroking her beautiful silky hair. He rest his cheek against the top of head and says in that same loving voice.
"You're love is enough. It is more than enough. Would I like another child? Yes. But only if it is our child. There is no one else I would rather have. If you are truly incapable... I can live with that if it means having you. Still I wouldn't count yourself out."
He rest a hand on he stomach. Laying it flat against it, imaging it bulging with the weight of a child. The thought warms him.
"There is nothing wrong with you. Even if there is something that might prevent you from bearing a child. Besides if there is something we can fix it. I learned when I got back Gavin that there is little you cannot accomplish with help, and with love."

At least he wasn't upset at the prospect that she may never be able to have children of her own. Letting him guide her head down to a restful position, she closed her eyes, his soothing voice and touch washing over her. But he wanted more children, one day.. children with her. When his hand laid upon her stomach, she opened her eyes and looked down at it, before her own hand fell to rest atop his. She tried to picture herself, her belly round with his child. It was a mental image that filled her with warmth, and longing. Looking up at him, a smile spread slowly across her features, and she murmured softly. "..Even if I cannot give you a child.. should the day come when you ask that question of me..." She left that sentence trailing, but the unspoken words were clear: If he asked her to marry him, she would, without a doubt, say yes.

Edward looked down at Reuna’s smiling face. His heart was mended by that smile, by her words. It was in many ways stunning she could have such an effect on him. She could make him tremble with empathy one moment, and giddy with joy the next. That was love though, wasn’t it? There are so many thing he can think to say in this moment. There are even more plans now running through his head. It would be weeks perhaps months before he asked the question. He was delaying more from a sense of propriety than any real hesitancy. It just seemed like the right thing, to allow their new relationship to develop. It seemed like it was too early to take the next step. Still he wouldn’t wait too long. Instead of voicing these thoughts he draws her into a kiss. Let her have no doubts that he would ask her.

Roleplay posts: 361
Age: 51
Physical Description: Reuna is a striking study in contrasts. She is just slightly above female average, height-wise, standing at 5'8", and is slender, with a fragile bone structure that makes her look weak; this is, of course, balanced out by her strength and skill in magic. Her hair is long, descending to her waist, and is purely black, which is a sharp opposition to her pale-skinned features. Her eyes are the color of amethyst, dark and intense, and are usually the only method from which one can derive her mood, as she very rarely displays her emotions via facial expressions. She appears young, in her mid-thirties, although if one looks closely enough, they can see the beginnings of fine lines around her eyes and mouth. Although few have ever seen them, due to her tendency to keep herself fully covered from neck to toes, she has whip-mark scars covering most of her back, and scars from long periods spent in manacles around both of her wrists, remnants from her days as a slave.
-----------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: Generally, Reuna wears one of five sets of identical robes, with high collars and long slightly-loose sleeves, in black, dark grey, purple, dark green, and dark blue. Commonly-carried equipment consists of her personal grimoire, a traveling writing kit (with ink well, quills, and writing desk), and a belt with pouches that contain various items (both magical and non); though perhaps not considered equipment, her raven companion Karrik always accompanies her.

No words were needed; the kiss he gave her was more than enough. That day would come, and he would ask, and she would accept, and they would start down the next path of their lives together. She remained where she was for several moments, simply enjoying kissing him, then drew back with a sigh. "I should go do these dishes and look into what I'll make for dinner. Maybe you should check on Gavin." Bestowing him with a final peck to the lips, she slid off his lap and picked up the dishes, then carried them into the kitchen. She was singing softly as she walked, unable to help herself. "The book of love is long and boring..."

Physical Description: Edward Laurént stands at 5'10. He has midlength black hair, and a clean shaven face. Previously his facial features were hard to remember, since he has begun wearing glasses they have become easier to recall. He looks to be in his late twenties, with a strong jaw, mid set cheek bones, straight narrow nose, and full lips. He appears to be in decent physical condition, though he is a bit pale.
Edwards eyes are an odd shade of blue, and they quite literally glow. With his glasses on, the glowing is the only remarkable thing about them. When you stare into his eyes when his glasses off though... it can be an odd experience. Staring into his eyes gives the impression that time has ceased to flow. Then you become aware of just how fast you are moving through the void of space. Most students avoid looking into his eyes.

Clothes and Equipment: Previously Edward only owned one suit of clothing. He retains these clothes, as a sort of work uniform. His style of dress when working is odd. He wears: sturdy blue cotton pants, an over sized coat of some unknown material, a sweater with a hood sewn onto it, and a large scarf. Each piece of clothing fluctuates in state of repair, and cleanliness through the day. If these clothes were not so eccentric, he could easily be considered a beggar while wearing them.
Edward has begun to expand his wardrobe in recent months. His first new accessory is a pair of glasses. Unlike other time mages, Edward struggled with turning off his time sight, rather than turning it on. His glasses are enchanted to suppress it. When not working he tends to wear casual clothing. Loose white shirts, and simple leather leggings. He also has a handful of stylish, if simple mage robes for special occasions.

Edward grins at her as she goes. He is always a bit sad when these little moments end. Still he is warmed by looking forward to the next one. He hums the same tune as her, though he is humming the part about wedding bands. He gets outside and looks for his son.

Echoes would find Gavin, Karrik, and Paulie discussing very important matters in the backyard.
"Ok, so when you say, 'arf', it means hello, and when you say 'arf aroooo', it means you're worried, right?"
ARF ARF!
"And that means yes. See Karrik? He's not that hard to understand."
Kreeek!
"Exactly."
It should be noted that Gavin's imitation barks were surprisingly realistic.
More importantly, Gavin was trying to act as a liason for the two animals. As the most mature of the three, Karrik was happy to play along. But the truth is Gavin was making very little headway. Paulie was giving Gavin his full attention, but the truth is he had absolutely no idea what was going on.
"You uh, you wanna play fetch?"
ARF!
"Wait, Karrik does that mean yes?"
The crow preened its feathers a bit before responding. KRACK, *purr*. This more or less translated to, "Yah, sure." Karrik flew off and a few moments later brought back a large stick in its beak.

Edward watches his sons antics with an amused smile. The boy had a natural affinity with magic. Coupled with his elven heritage, it wasn't surprising that he was already speaking to animals. Edward doesn't immediately intrude upon the trio. He wants to see how quickly his son teaches Paulie to play fetch.

Gavin took the stick from the raven's claws and waved it in front of his puppy friend's face. "Ok Paulie, ready?"
ARF!
"... I'm gonna take that as a yes!" Gavin swung around and threw the stick into the grass. "Go fetch!"
The puppy stared at him blankly.
"Fetch! Go fetch!" He shouted. But the puppy didn't budge. "Please go fetch?" Karrik flew towards the stick, picked it up, and dropped it on Gavin's head, somewhat by accident. "... Thanks Karrik." Somewhat demoralized, Gavin sat down in the grass. In response, Paulie walked right up to him and began licking his face. Gavin started laughing. "You're kinda dumb aren't you?"
Karrik made a short KRAK! sound in agreement.

Edward chuckles as Gavin tries to get the dog to fetch. He walks up to his son and lays a hand on the boys head.
"Paulie is still young. You need to be patient and learn how to motivate him. Take it one step at a time. Watch."
Edward takes the stick and begins to tease the puppy with it. Tapping his nose and pulling it away. Eventually the small dog begins to dance around eagerly, desperately trying to bite the offending branch. With a casual flick of his wrist Edward tosses the stick a short distance. The puppy charges after it and when he gets to it begins to gnaw. When the stick doesn't move anymore he loses interest and trots back over. Edward produces a treat and pets the dog.
"See progress. You teach him to want to chase the stick first. Next we should teach him how to come when called. How do you think we do that?"

Gavin does his thinking face with his finger touching his chin. "Oh! We should use a treat to get him to come!"
Krak!
Apparently Karrik agrees.

"Very astute."
Edwards ruffles Gavin's hair affectionately. He walks a few paces away from the boy. The puppy was more enamored of his playmate than the strange man. So Paulie stayed right where he was. Edward produces a treat and calls the puppy over. Paulie looks uncertainly between the two then goes to Edward. Once again the dog is treated and given a pet.
