The Men (and Women) of Death - AU Robert and Morgaine
"I'm going to tell him to let you go, in the morning." Robert says, stroking Morgan's hair as he lay next to her. The aftermath of their love making always found them more talkative than any other time they were together...unless they were arguing. They did a lot of that in the beginning, when she was trying to kill him. They did more when he tried to kill her in return.

The first time they made love, they'd talked more than ever.

"And he will let you go, Morgan, or I'll /make/ him let you go." Robert says.

"When he says yes, will you leave with me?" he asks.

	The look on her face was one of both puzzlement and shock. "You...you want me to be with you?" (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"Yes. I want us to work together, to be together, to...do things together, if you'll let me." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She can't seem to understand why someone would actually want to be with her. "But...I tried to kill you. Several times." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You nearly did several times. Especially on that bridge. But I've never seen you fail to kill someone in all the time I've known you. Ask yourself: why didn't you finish the job?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I've never really thought about it," Morgaine said. "Maybe it was because in some way...you reminded me of myself." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"We have things in common, lots of things. Screwed childhoods, nightmares in parenting. We were both taught to kill as our primary method of dealing with things in life. We both had fathers who didn't take an interest in us." Robert says, still playing with her hair. "We have families that insane and forever intertwined now. Like I said, lots of stuff."

	There was a long silence before Morgaine spoke again. "Do you...love me?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yes." He'd said the word without thinking. "Yes, I'm falling in love with you." Robert says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonchild 2011-06-30 03:52 am UTC (link)
	"I don't understand." She sat up, holding her knees. "I don't understand why you'd love me. No one's supposed to love me." Her voice was small, and there was a faint quiver in it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Her reaction shocks Robert. Had she really been told that. Yes, of course. Ra's al Ghul would do that. Robert wishes he'd killed Ra's too at this moment. "That is not true. You are supposed to be loved and cared for, Morgan. You're worthy of that...and if you let me, I'll do whatever I can to be worthy of that love." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"No one has ever said that they loved me," Morgaine said, lying back next to him. "Except for Damien, but that's in the family sense." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"In case you missed it...I love you, Morgan." he says, holding her close. "And when you become Lady Shiva, I'll love you then, too, if you let me." he says. "Now...will you leave with me in the morning?" he asks again, his tone somewhat pleading. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonchild 2011-06-30 02:55 pm UTC (link)
	"I love you, Robert Queen." The words sound strange on her tongue, but she finds she likes saying them. "Yes. Yes, I will." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hunters_moon 2011-06-30 03:24 pm UTC (link)
	"Good. I didn't want to have to kidnap you, but I would have." Robert grins, his eyes closing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonchild 2011-06-30 03:58 pm UTC (link)
	"Sleep Beloved," she said, stroking his cheek gently. "We will have a busy day tomorrow." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Robert is nearly asleep, but he hears Morgan's words. "Call me that always, my love." he whispers, before falling asleep. (Reply to this)(Parent)
