Really? No one was into you for your chiseled features and sexy body?

[ She kind of doubts that. ]

[moraled]

I--

If that is the case, I certainly was unaware of it and do not wish to be aware of it now...!

[Don't tease him like this Sara

(but do)]

[alcobrawlic]

But I'm into you for your chiseled features and your sexy body.

[ she must. ]

[moraled]

[Oh my god.

He's

burying his face in his hands

But even so, he managed to mutter:]

...When it is you, that is--fine....

[alcobrawlic]

...

So, you can flat-out propose to me right after beating up monsters, but you get embarrassed about me calling you sexy?

[ really, Barnham. She's endeared. ]

[moraled]

Those are not even remotely within the same category at all and you are aware of it, Sara!

[Yes.

He's flustered.

But also like--]

And I...could not wait any longer with the other matter.

[alcobrawlic]

... Other matter?

[moraled]

Ah--yes.

That of the proposal, of course, but also.

The matter of... what we would like to do from here...

[He can't say it plainly.]

[alcobrawlic]

Barnham.

[ sternly. ]

Don't get all shy on me now.

[moraled]

[...]

... It is-- [DEEP BREATH.

WHEEZE.]

At some point in the future, would you like to start a family?

[alcobrawlic]

[ ... Ah. Well. She actually didn't see that coming. ]

You want kids?

[moraled]

Er, well...

[DEEP BREATH.]

Yes.

If you are not opposed...at some point in the future, I would like to start a family with you, Sara.

[alcobrawlic]

... I mean, I did sort of figure that getting married meant we'd definitely start a family at some point.

[ so yes?? ]

[moraled]

[um]

... You've accepted that startlingly well.

[alcobrawlic]

I just happen to think our kids are going to be incredibly good-looking.

[ ... no, she also knows how Barnham is, how earnest and serious he is-- and even the greatest of Bracers had a family of his own. So Sara can't really herself disliking the idea, and especially not with Barnham. ]

[moraled]

[... He presses a hand to his forehead.]

You cannot possibly be serious.

[alcobrawlic]

Also I love you, so it kind of seemed like a given.

[moraled]

[... He smiles, head dipping.]

As ever, you are far too much for me. [Because really, that's so endearing he can't even begin to cope with it.]

I love you as well. Thank you... nothing would make me happier than starting a family properly with you someday.

[alcobrawlic]

The feeling's mutual, Zach.

As long as don't jump straight into baby-making, I'd say we've got ourselves a pretty good plan.

[moraled]

[Sara always manages to embarrass him by being crude...]

... That... was certainly never the plan. We must be wed first, to begin with. I would also like for the both of us to be satisfied with our adventures before we have any children.

[So they can settle down and raise them properly.]

[alcobrawlic]

[ how do you even survive sex with her, Barnham-- ]

I agree. I think marriage shouldn't necessarily take too long, since it's not like we can't be Bracers as a married couple.

[moraled]

Ah, well, yes...

[YES...]

I would like to do it right, either way.

[alcobrawlic]

Of course you would. No one's more thorough than you.

[ but she says it affectionately. ]

... Can I pass on a huge ceremony, though?

[moraled]

Most certainly.

[Barnham just looks equal parts relieved and amused at that... Sara, please.]

We will invite only who you would like to invite.

[A beat.]

And Constantine, naturally.

[alcobrawlic]

Constantine's going to be in the ceremony as much as we are. That's just a given.
