My beloved monster and me

Who: Gren and Misty
Where: The lake
When: 25/10
Rating: Likely some swearing and probably some smoochin'
Summary: Two swamp people attempt to have a normal date
The Story:

Gren really isn't equipped for romance. Not that he can't have romantic feelings, of course, Misty is living proof of that- he's just not much experienced in that area. His life has always been pretty simple, from eldritch Nordic swamp horror to the short, angry guy that haunts dive bars. Simple, easy, keeping everyone bar the people he cares about the most at arms length.

But now there's Misty, and he's equal parts happy he has her and terrified he's going to do something to fuck this up. He's taken Shawn's advice (for better or for worse) for a good first date and set up a picnic by the lake. Of course, he has no idea what Misty likes to eat, so he's gone with a mixture of everything and just hoped for the best. He's set up a blanket- for her benefit more than his own - and even managed to drag a few candles, some wine and a frazzled-looking boombox out of his closet.

"God. This looks fuckin' awful."

Still, he's done what he can, sends her a message of where to meet him, and spends the rest of his time staring at his poor attempt at a picnic, waiting for her to arrive.

"Who am I to take away your chance to make things perfect? I would be a monster to do that," she says, shaking her head, trying hard not to smile. "I'm sure we can come up with some ideas of interesting dates. In the interest of helping you."

Just that he wants more dates makes her happier than she could have imagined.

Grinning at that, moving to gently cup his face with both of her hands. "Do you want to know the truth, Grendel?" Saying it softly as she leans in, kissing him tenderly. "I think that in different ways, we're both monsters and I'm glad for that."

And she truly means it. She's glad that they're different. It's why things work so well for them, she believe.

"Exactly," she murmurs softly. "Us against the world. We can manage anything we want," she says. "Together."
