"Then I believe this calls for a bigger reaction from me." She threw her arms around him and gave him a giant hug, before pulling back and placing a small kiss on his lips. "I intend to marry you eventually, too."

[Channelknight Fadran]

"Heck yeah."

[DramaQueen she/he/neopronouns]

Queen laughed, but her laugh died off as a voice entered her head--not Tchanta, but not quite her own, either.

What about Journey?

Journey died. I had to move on. I'm lucky I was even able to move on. She tried to shove the guilt away, but it didn't completely work.

Sorry

Fadran gathered her up in a hug.

[DramaQueen she/he/neopronouns]

Queen tried not to let him know what was going on in her head, but a single, small sob forced its way out.

[Channelknight Fadran]

"Shhh..." Fadran held her close. "I got you. You're okay."

[DramaQueen she/he/neopronouns]

"Are you sure?"

[Channelknight Fadran]

He let out a shaky breath. "I'm sorry."

[DramaQueen she/he/neopronouns]

"No, I'm sorry." Queen pulled back from the hug and forced a smile. "Thank you for the ring, I'm sorry my thoughts made it...sad."

[Channelknight Fadran]

"None of this is your fault, Queen." He took both her hands. "None of it."

[DramaQueen she/he/neopronouns]

"...I know." But what if it is?

[Channelknight Fadran]

"I'm sorry." Fadran said again. He pulled her back into a hug.

[DramaQueen she/he/neopronouns]

"I don't want you to be sorry. If none of this is my fault, it's impossible for it to be yours. You being sorry makes it...harder."

[Channelknight Fadran]

Fadran squeezed her. "In that case, I'm sorry for being sorry."

[DramaQueen she/he/neopronouns]

Queen let out a small laugh, then allowed herself to relax into Fadran's arms.

You do love him.

This time it was Tchanta's voice.

You still love Journey, but you love Fadran, too. And that's okay. You can't deny yourself happiness because you feel guilty about it. Marrying Fadran will be the right thing for you to do. Once both of you are ready.
