Pick Two
For this meme, choose one character of yours and one character of mine-- and then I will write out how they hook up, settle into a long term relationship and/or marriage, and describe their firstborn child/children, if any. Crack pairings and old characters are acceptable.

The two of them fought the Seven as much as they fought each other that night. By the end, they'd been beaten by the four remaining members and brought before Henry Cain.

"Rather than killing us, Henry forced us to endure the worst torture imaginable." Robert tells his daughter.

"Did he pull our your fingernails? Or did he cut you over and over?" she asks.

"Worse. He chained us up facing each other and let us hang that way for hours at a time." Robert says. "Your mother broke my nose three times that first day.

She would hurt me physically and I would attack her emotionally. Eventually, we found ourselves too tired and battered to fight and with only enough energy to hurl insults at each other. Somewhere along the way, we learned to talk to each other in acidic tones that gave way to more civil ones." Robert says.

He still remembered the day, after months of being chained together, that he decided that killing her was no longer as important as keeping her alive so that he could use her to get out of here.

"We will kill Henry Cain, and then go our separate ways, Morgaine. But if the chance to kill you comes up afterward...I will take it." Robert said, looking directly into those eyes of hers.

"You are a a liar, Robert Queen." she said to him, then.

She always knew when he was lying.

"Eventually, we escaped and we killed Henry Cain, leaving the League of Assassin's in disarray. She refused to be the Demon's Head and I had no other purpose in life. We honored our deal and went our separate ways." Robert said, looking back to Oli.

The little girl was fighting sleep as best she could, pinching herself to stay awake.

"What...happened next, Father?" Oli yawned.

"Two years later, your mother was in trouble and...for some reason, she called me. She was being held prisoner in Khandaq by Black Adam, who decided that she'd make a fine addition to his harem. Of course, he'd neglected your mother's views on the matter and kept her imprisoned.

I called some favors and got a few people to aid me in getting her out of there. Your Aunts Rose and Lian thought I was insane and said so /loudly/. But it was your Aunt Mia who told me that which I already knew." Robert says.

You wouldn't be going against a near-god for a woman you don't care about, Robbie. If you care for her, tell her, because she won't know any other way.

"So...you rescued Mother from an evil God?" Oli says, her eyes filled with awe.

"Actually, your mother rescued /me/ from Black Adam. He'd hit me with his lightning bolt, which hurts like hell, by the way. But he was about to break my neck when the arrow when through his chest.

Your mother saved my life. We spent a lot more time together after that. We said that we were waiting for the right moment to betray and kill each other, but I don't think very many people believed us." Robert chuckles.

He looks over to see what Oli thinks about that and finds that their daughter has fallen asleep with a smile on her face.

"If you fought half as well as you tell stories, you'd be a master warrior, Robert." Morgaine says from the doorway.

"If I were a master warrior, you'd be trying to kill me while our daughter watches, Lady Shiva. I prefer to be the master archer in this family and let you handle the hand-to-hand." he says, his hand idly going to the knife at his hip. He stands up and walks over to Morgaine at the door way, looking down at her.

"Our daughter is beautiful. She comes from good stock." he says.

"I hated every second of carrying her and the effort it took to create her, even if it was worthwhile at the time. I will not bear another child for you and if you even think of asking, I will beat you to death and tell her you fell on your sword." Morgaine says, looking Robert dead in the eyes.

Robert stares at her for a moment or two longer, then smirks.

"You're a liar, Morgaine King."

Morgaine's expression remains impenetrable for another long moment before she smiles, which Robert considers the most beautiful expression in the world.

"I am lying. But I tell the truth now: I want another child, Robert. With you." she says, looking away. He knows what it cost her to admit that to him, that she feels for him where she has never felt for anyone else.

"Then we will have another child." he says, kissing her.

"Even if I have to rescue you from another demigod to do it." he grins.

Morgaine King, Lady Shiva, rolls her eyes at her lover.

"You are /such/ a liar, Robert Queen. I would kill you if I did not love you so." she tells him, taking his hand and leading him away to their bedroom, leaving their daughter to dream.
