I WAS AN ISLAND / proposal

He supposed that was natural, considering he was far from a day when he would have to worry about someone asking him to marry them – or vice versa – but it was also a little odd. The sage knew of plenty of children who went around happily announcing their crushes, gossiping and planning their future hypothetical weddings. He knew it was all just play for them, really, and they would one day know just how important such a step was in one's life, but he still wondered why he had never thought about it before. The simplest answer was usually the correct one, however, and he was fairly sure he could trace back his disinterest in marriage to his mama. He knew that he had been the result of a simple fling between Roxie and Seamus, and that had never really bothered him. They had never treated him any differently because of it, and for that he had been grateful. But it wasn't as if the pair was together, and even when Roan had thought perhaps his mother and Greed would go so far as to tie the knot, Greed had simply dropped off the face of the earth, vanished without a trace. The thought of someone leaving him when they were so close, being abandoned just as his mother had been... what was there to prevent someone from doing that to him, even after muttering magical words of marriage?

Despite his own anxieties over the concept of marriage, Roan was far from the type to ruin this beautiful moment for Sam and Goldie. He had been flying low over their home that day, on his way back from a trip to gather some herbs, when he was caught off guard by the subject of their conversation. The words I wanna marry you drifted upwards to him, and he found himself pausing mid-flight, looking downwards at the two of them. Curious, as well as excited for his cousin, the draconic boy had flown down to the ground, landing carefully nearby and waiting until he heard Sam's answer. When he did, he grinned, moving over to the pair. He stood a little in front of the porch, still providing them with plenty of space as he purred, "Cousin Goldie... I'm so happy for you! And you too of course, Sam. Congratulations." He didn't have much else to say on the matter, considering he wasn't exactly the type to be giving out sagely advice for marriage, despite his job title.
