Getting shot bloody hurts, for those of you who've never experienced it.

I'm all right, on the mend. Been lying on the couch at home being bossed around by my son (well, both versions of Jack, as well as the little one can manage) and boyfriend. I know they're just wanting me to be careful and I love them for it. Just not used to staying in one spot. Maybe going a trifle loopy.

Aaron told me you two were able to catch the bastards. I'm ... very grateful.

	Don't mention it, I would've done it anyway. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Thank you anyway. I feel very loved. And slightly smothered. But it's all right. Little Jack's asleep on my shoulder. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Aaron told me that someday, when "I'm ready", he wants to marry me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yes. I don't know, he said it when we were in my hospital room. I thought I was hallucinating, but apparently not. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hotch doesn't just say things. He means it, sugar. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I know. I was afraid of that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Why? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Everything's perfect now. Why muck it up? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Who says that marriage would muck it up? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It changes everything, and I'd prefer nothing changed. I've had a husband before, I could really do without another one. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Isabela all_knowing 2011-07-12 05:18 am UTC (link)
	So don't do it yet. He said he'd wait, and I know he means what he says. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Penelope rivainipirate 2011-07-12 05:30 am UTC (link)
	I know he does. I feel bad making him wait, but I don't want to say no right off, and I would right now. Just ... back in Thedas, a wife was property. How do you think the man my mother chose for me reacted to a wife who was younger, quicker and smarter than him, that he owned absolutely? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	... not well, I'd guess. Here, spouses are people that you go through life with. Marriages can be dissolved just because people don't get along. I wish you'd been married to that bastard here, he'd still be rotting in jail. And in jail, wife beaters get a crap time of it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Penelope rivainipirate 2011-07-12 03:54 pm UTC (link)
	No, he'd still be dead. Zevran killed him; it worked out rather well. And I know Aaron would never lay a hand on me, I'm not a complete fool. Just ... don't know, technically I've never had what most people would call a marriage. I don't know how to do it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Isabela all_knowing 2011-07-13 03:23 am UTC (link)
	Normally I don't wish death on anyone, but I'm weirdly okay with that. Does anyone? It's not like people get manuals, gorgeous. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Penelope rivainipirate 2011-07-13 03:36 am UTC (link)
	He tried to rape me. Nearly did. If he didn't die, I knew he'd manage it one day. I have no guilt. I just can't lose Aaron, darling. It's my second worst nightmare. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Isabela all_knowing 2011-07-13 03:53 am UTC (link)
	Nor should you. I'm glad your friend did that for you. Isabela, he's not going anywhere. If he wants to marry you, that's basically his way of saying he doesn't want to lose you either. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Penelope rivainipirate 2011-07-13 03:56 am UTC (link)
	I'll figure it out one of these days. I hope he doesn't get tired of waiting. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Isabela all_knowing 2011-07-13 04:00 am UTC (link)
	He won't. He said he'd wait, and I've never heard him say things he doesn't mean. (Reply to this) (Parent)
