*He looked up at her. She appeared to be truthful. And if Megan took Pina far away, Erik could always find them.*
"Yes," *he said quietly.* "Pina can go to the wedding. She... she must choose."

"That is what Erik just said!" *he roared, turning away to replace his mask. When he turned back, he was collected again, deathly still.* "You'll forgive Erik if he does not invite you to stay."

"I wouldn't want to."
She turned around, saw that James was still aiming at Erik with his pistol, and made an annoyed little "Put it away!" gesture. He did, with a groan.

Megan stomped on James' foot when she noticed he still had his hand on the handle of the gun.
"So you two have met?"

*Erik blinked at her.*
"Is Erik deserving of small talk now?"
*He sighed.*
"Yes. When he was a drug-addled nincompoop he came here with that Richard fellow. Come to think of it, he waved a gun at Erik ineffectually back then, too. Perhaps you should look into that violent nature of his."

She looked back and forth between them.
"Richard?"

*Erik shrugged.*
"Unpleasant little fellow," *he said dismissively.* "You didn't miss much."

*There was an uneasy pause.*
"Are you really going to marry this clown?"

Megan gave her fiance a Don't you say a word kind of look before looking back at Erik.
"Yes, I am. We're in love."

"Isn't that delightful," *he said sarcastically.* "For your information, Erik is too."
*He wasn't entirely certain who with at this point, and none of his relationships were actually going well. Or at all. But still.*
"Good luck," *he said to Norrington.* "She's quite good at keeping house, until she decides she hates you." *He turned back to Megan.* "I give it three months."
