::This is Vidya sitting in Ascendancy. With a laptop. Slightly pregnant, tapping and sipping on tea. She seems a bit listless.::

.... I don't usually think of gifts. What does he even like, mmn?

[bibeakerbabe]

So I can know what sort of lingerie to buy for her, and what to expect of her personality. And if Erland brought home a girl for the body or brains this time.

[bibeakerbabe]

Honey-glazed Ham.

[keepersouha]

... I would just say to cook that for him, then...?

[foreverchilled]

How can you be so... so accepting...??

::Theresa fumes a bit. She'd have frozen Erland solid if he tried this even once on her. ...that is, if she would have ever gotten attracted to such a horrible male in the first place...!::

[bibeakerbabe]

I want to do something bigger.

[keepersouha]

Bigger is rather beyond my comprehension.

Farther than trying to think of gifts would be.

[bibeakerbabe]

... Why wouldn't I be?

[foreverchilled]

Because you deserve a faithful companion.

[bibeakerbabe]

What could be more faithful than a husband who shares your love for polyamory?

[bibeakerbabe]

Like a giant love letter.

[keepersouha]

*... flexes their hand again*

I think that would be what you'd need to do yourself, you realize.

[bibeakerbabe]

The problem is how.

[foreverchilled]

...Vidya...!

::Theresa is blushing profusely at that... it's kind of like having an idol come out drinking and smoking.::

[bibeakerbabe]

What? ::Quite confused.::

[foreverchilled]

::Theresa just holds her head. There's really no words that work for her at this moment. All Theresa can think is that Erland has to have corrupted poor Vidya. But saying that wouldn't help things at all; they'd only isolate her from Vidya all the more if anything.::

::And then of course there's the slight temptation... a part of Theresa would like to share Vidya's bed... but she doesn't want it to also be Erland's bed.::

::And then still there's how Theresa feels about Erland. She hates him, of course, but he also makes her feel safe. Granted, she'd be happiest if "Rachana" could exist without him, so Theresa could just live with Vidya in peace and safety... but Theresa can't deny that what makes everything so safe is Erland himself.::

::Still, regardless of all that, the whole polygamy thing is just so wrong. And to think that Vidya, of all people, not only accepts it, but enjoys it... it's devastating to Theresa's already shaky sensibilities.::

[bibeakerbabe]

So how are you and Noriko holding up, marriage wise?

[bibeakerbabe]

::Pokes you, Theresa.:: Are you alright? You look like you went off into a mental monologue.

[foreverchilled]

Just... nnn...

::Theresa tries to form words for a few moments, but eventually just sighs and gives up.::

...I don't get it. And I never will.

::Theresa just lays her head on the table, staring at the wall, or out the window.::

[keepersouha]

Very well. Though she seems to be having money issues right now...

[bibeakerbabe]

That seems odd. And uncharacteristic for her.

[keepersouha]

I expect it's conspiracy.

I did manage to help her a little bit, but I'm certain it won't have much impact in the long run.

[bibeakerbabe]

... Who would conspire against Noriko? She seems sweet in an Addams Family way.

[bibeakerbabe]

Why not...? It isn't that odd.

[foreverchilled]

::Theresa sighs, and talks in a very quiet voice, like she knows she's defeated already but wants to say it anyway.::

...but it is. It's not a 'special someone' when you're sharing them with a bunch of other people.

It's not faithful when they bring home women you don't even know every so often.

It's... it's just not right.
