Ivy smiles softly at Jacob, and she dusts her hands when they finish. “Thank you, my dear.”

Winter looks up at him. “Could you tell me about them? I’m not from America, so I’ve never really heard any details about that war.”

[Jasper19]

Jacob nods" of course honey "

Charlie smiles " sure what do you want to know? "

[Sharidi37495]

Ivy covers her yawn with a sigh. “Now what do I do?” She looks around for something to do.

Winter smiles softly. “Everything you remember.”

[Jasper19]

Jacob smiles " now you relax or sleep "

Charlie nods" well I joined at sixteen lied about my age and I joined the cavalry hmm" he says remembering

[Sharidi37495]

Ivy purses her lips. “Any other options?”

Winter smiles softly and she settles in for the long haul.

[Jasper19]

Jacob shakes his head " nope "

Charlie thinks " the first battle I was in was small it was chaos though bullets and cannon fire everywhere my horse I had to calm down not to mention not get shot "

[Sharidi37495]

Ivy pouts a little. “Damn it.” She sighs. “Fine, ill relax. If you do it with me.”

Winter widens her eyes and leans in, drawn in.

[Jasper19]

Jacob nods " of course "

Charlie thinks " first man I killed I trampled him to death we won the battle though I lost a few before one battle I had fallen off of my horse and thought I was going to die when I saw the Valkyries picking up the souls of the fallen that made me want to fight "

[Shadow Dragon]

"What is life to you Tasha?"

[Sharidi37495]

Ivy smiles and gently pushes him into his back and she lays her head on his chest and drapes a leg across hiss

Winter raises her eyebrows. “You saw people get taken by literal death, so you fought. Wow. There was no one for you to fight for?”

[Jasper19]

Jacob smiles and relaxes cuddling with ivy

Charlie scratches his head " it was a combination my mom had visited me multiple times telling me stories of their myths I just didn't believe them and when I saw the valkyries I realized they were real so I decided to try and fight so I could get to Valhalla also I did have a sweetheart back home " he said his southern accent showing

[Sharidi37495]

Ivy sighs a little and cuddles with Jacob, smiling. “Do you wish our lives weren’t so crazy? I mean, I don’t know anyone else who had their wedding interrupted by a band of feral humans led by the maid of honor’s brainwashed ex.” She chuckles a little. “Never thought that would apply to me, either.”

Winter frowns faintly, but she makes it a curious face to mask her slight jealousy. “Oh? May I ask about her?”

[Jasper19]

Jacob smiles " sometimes but I like to think the crazy makes our lives better "

Charlie nods " sure let me think well she had curly honey blond hair she wasn't really one of those southern bells and liked to ride the horses at her family's plantation "

[Sharidi37495]

Ivy smiles. “Huh. Well it certainly never leaves any room to be bored, that’s for sure. And you know what they say, only boring people get bored.”

Winter nods a little. “So you fought for the south?”

[Jasper19]

Jacob nods " exactly " he says smiling

Charlie nods " yes I did in fact I'm wearing my cavalry soldier jacket right now " he said smiling softly " but for the South the war of northern aggression wasn't just about slaves at least for me it wasn't about that " he says

[Sharidi37495]

Ivy smiles back, sighing softly. "Is it weird that I don't want that for our kids? At least not growing up."

"Okay, then what was it about for you?" Winter gently touches his jacket.

[Jasper19]

Jacob shakes his head " no it's not weird they deserve peace "

Charlie thinks" it was about loyalty to my state and my family also about our way of life I mean we were trading much more with other countries then the northern states so we were making more money than their factories but mostly it was loyalty to my home "

[Sharidi37495]

Ivy nods with a small sigh. "They definitely do. So do we."

Winter nods with a small smile. "I get that. Please, continue."

[Jasper19]

Jacob nods" we do " he says

Charlie nods" well they let us go home while we waited and suddenly I get a telegram saying we're going to battle so I say goodbye to my sweetheart and I knew it was the last time I would see her I just knew somehow " he said " so I get on my horse make sure my cavalry sword and pistol is ready and ride out to our encampment "

[Sharidi37495]

Ivy smiles and kisses his cheek. "We really do. Would you like to continue our dance, since we were so rudely interrupted?"

Winter frowns softly and she hugs him. She knows exactly what feeling he's talking about.
