Canon is Need For Speed. On an unpleasant realization.

[shelbycobra]

You don't know that's how it has to be. It was never actually canon. So maybe his mun sees things differently. Maybe his mun likes what we've done together and doesn't want to do that.

And if he does...

...If he doesn't want to be here with me, I would never make him stay. I told him that when I fell in love with him. That I understood his job. If going back to that world is what's best for him, I'll let him go. I'd rather he be happy than keep him around here just to make me happy. He is a wonderful, beautiful man and he deserves everything...

...Goddamnit now I'm getting choked up. I don't have time for this. I've got a season coming in six days. Why don't you go write about that?

Everything alright?

[shelbycobra]

Will. [Shelby swallows, wipes at her eyes.] No, not really. My mun found out what was supposed to happen to my fiancee and it's basically the exact opposite of everything we've planned for our future.

[dowell]

Is it bad?

[shelbycobra]

For me, probably. He tries to live a normal life but he's unhappy and winds up going back to his old job. Of course, his canon fiancee also turns into a villain so...at least that wouldn't happen in our world.

[dowell]

Damn.

[shelbycobra]

Yeah, so. [Swallows.] We've already postponed the wedding until this fall because of my job. I'm so afraid that now I've gotten him into this life that he won't want.

[dowell]

I wouldn't worry too much.

[shelbycobra]

What makes you say that? [Because she really is worried.]

[dowell]

I doubt just because it was 'supposed' to be canon means he'll up and run off now.

[shelbycobra]

I hope not. He told me he was done, and I've just been following his lead. But I would never try stopping him.

Although I did not enjoy being kidnapped.
