But I'm gonna be the proudest Peacock on this island when it comes time for me to call myself Mrs. Stark. Because you are the bravest, most selfless man I've ever met." She paused, there wasn't a way to measure the pride that had been in her voice when she stopped.
Aj tightened her arms around him. "But I promise you, if I ever vanish, I wont ever give up tryin' to find you again. So you don't have to worry about that Spire being ornery because it wont keep me from you." She eased over, tugging him as she did so that he would have room to lay down, rather than sit up.
