Jiang Wanyin? I met him briefly, and he seemed a very lovely man. Helped me part of the way home before Eridanus found me. He is an honorable sort.


[She knows that name, at least and relaxes slightly, the tight line of her shoulders rounding out into softness. Surely, she knows she's right. Eridanus cried over her body, carried her home to safety, loved her and then...

Then... Then what happened? Where did his eyes find someone who wasn't her after all their time together? What point did she seem to stop being the "one and only." Why hadn't he talked to her about it, as she would've him if some lovely lady had asked for her time? A dalliance, and nothing more. That was the agreement. Nothing to attempt to overshadow their marriage. No vows but the ones to each other.

Rosefica sighed deeply.]


Yes, I will be the Good Mother, the Long-suffering Wife, the Jilted Lover. It seems he's pigeonholed me into the role without my consent. I wonder if the issue is that Eridanus is rejecting our reality as well.
