[12/12/2015 8:36:58 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami leads Wynn back to her room! It's got a lot of Tarak's stuff in it.

[12/12/2015 8:38:02 PM] Wynn: So. Marriage.

[12/12/2015 8:38:49 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: Yes. What do you think?

[12/12/2015 8:39:19 PM] Wynn: What made you change your mind?

[12/12/2015 8:39:45 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: ... he's impossible not to like. Surely you've noticed.

[12/12/2015 8:40:19 PM] *** Wynn smirks. "I doubt that's popular opinion, but ok." ***

[12/12/2015 8:40:43 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: Why wouldn't it be?

[12/12/2015 8:41:37 PM] Wynn: Well, he tries to make people think he's an asshole.

[12/12/2015 8:42:18 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: He's always been kind to me.

[12/12/2015 8:43:29 PM | Edited 8:43:35 PM] Wynn: Your arrangement... it was to get you pregnant, then he'd step out of the picture, right? That he'd take the child to a good home if you died before the curse was broken?

[12/12/2015 8:44:28 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: Yes. ... but he needs me.

[12/12/2015 8:45:30 PM] Wynn: Why?

[12/12/2015 8:46:14 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: Since he stopped drinking, he... has nightmares.

[12/12/2015 8:46:32 PM] *** Wynn frowns. ***

[12/12/2015 8:47:13 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: I don't know what they're about, but they're... bad.

[12/12/2015 8:47:56 PM] *** Wynn nods. "I can imagine." ***

[12/12/2015 8:48:44 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: It seems to help that I'm there.

[12/12/2015 8:50:02 PM] Wynn: (sorry was trying to refresh my memory of what wynn and tarak have discussed)

[12/12/2015 8:50:32 PM] Wynn: So why did you come to me instead of talking to him?

[12/12/2015 8:51:03 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: I'm not as familiar with your order as I should be. I've read a lot, of course. But I was hoping fo advice.

[12/12/2015 8:51:59 PM] Wynn: Well, he's not exactly a shining example of Cuthbertines.

[12/12/2015 8:53:20 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: ... why not?

[12/12/2015 8:54:07 PM] Wynn: Doesn't see the point, I suppose. Point being, he's not going to be exactly like the textbooks say he should be. You should talk to him if you want to know something.

[12/12/2015 8:55:47 PM] Wynn: He's been a lot more open to the idea of having ties since he first got here, but even that was only going to have five years to it.

[12/12/2015 8:56:00 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: I don't know if it's even allowed.

[12/12/2015 8:57:49 PM] Wynn: I never took any vows of that nature. I am fairly certain it is not required.

[12/12/2015 9:00:51 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: What do you think?

[12/12/2015 9:01:38 PM] Wynn: About Tarak? I don't know. We don't usually talk about that sort of thing.

[12/12/2015 9:05:55 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: ... do you think it would make things worse for him?

[12/12/2015 9:06:16 PM] Wynn: Worse?

[12/12/2015 9:06:51 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: More difficult or unpleasant.

[12/12/2015 9:08:12 PM] Wynn: I think it should be his decision to make. If you want to ask him, then ask him. I don't think you should keep the question from him out of some misplaced attempt to protect him from himself.

[12/12/2015 9:08:57 PM] Wynn: That would be my advice. Whether I think he'll say yes or not... I can't say.

[12/12/2015 9:10:00 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: ... you're right. I'll have to think on it.

[12/12/2015 9:11:21 PM] Wynn: Is there anything else I can help you with?

[12/12/2015 9:12:19 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: ... if you can do anything to help him with the nightmares...

[12/12/2015 9:12:56 PM] Wynn: I can't even do anything about my own.

[12/12/2015 9:13:58 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: Then I'm glad you have someone with you when you wake up screaming.

[12/12/2015 9:17:36 PM] *** Wynn blushes slightly. "If you do that for him, I'm grateful." ***

[12/12/2015 9:19:38 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: Well, I do have the advantage of only needing to rest for four hours a night. It helped when he was sick, especially.

[12/12/2015 9:21:52 PM] Wynn: How are you getting along with Allys?

[12/12/2015 9:22:19 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: She makes withering remarks any time I'm in range to hear them.

[12/12/2015 9:23:41 PM] *** Wynn frowns. ***

[12/12/2015 9:26:36 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: I don't know if I could ever convince her.

[12/12/2015 9:26:51 PM] Wynn: What do you need to convince her of?

[12/12/2015 9:28:16 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: That I don't have any ill intent toward her brother. ... I care about him.

[12/12/2015 9:29:47 PM] Wynn: It will come in time if at all.

[12/12/2015 9:32:26 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: I don't want to cause a rift between them, either.

[12/12/2015 9:32:52 PM] Wynn: She only wants her brother to be happy. If you do that for him, then she'll accept it.

[12/12/2015 9:33:53 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami: I am going to try to do that.

[12/12/2015 9:35:02 PM] Wynn: Good luck.

[12/12/2015 9:36:57 PM] Basement Cat: Bellami nods. "... thank you for your help."

[12/12/2015 9:37:15 PM] Wynn: You're welcome. And I'm sorry again about earlier.

[12/12/2015 9:37:42 PM] Basement Cat: She shrugs. "It was a stressful moment."

[12/12/2015 9:37:48 PM] Basement Cat: She curtseys and heads out.

[12/12/2015 9:38:18 PM] *** Wynn too because she does not want to be awkwardly standing around in Bellami's bedroom. ***

[12/12/2015 9:38:36 PM] Basement Cat: Or Tarak's. >.>
