*At the corner of the festival, there is a sign advertising "Private Seating Areas" along with a mage waiting patiently by a teleportation sigil. Upon request, he beams parties into the mountains. They will appear in a comfortable seating area situated around a roaring bonfire. (There are magical controls that allow the temperature to be changed to whatever is the most comfortable). Above, they will be able to see the bright lights of the aurora dancing across the sky.*

*Larkin opted for his formal Vulcan robes for this event. Mostly because he could layer upon layer the fabric for warmth and no one would ever know. An added bonus was that he could envelope Sara with the long layers to help keep her warm as well if need be. Starfleet issued uniforms were good for on ship to keep him warm, but in such extreme temperatures, this made more sense.* *After the ceremony, they had meandered to the mage, and decided that this would be their destination, and he walked closely to Sara to their seats by the fire, to which he offered his palms so they may warm.* "It is an aesthetically pleasing place...but very cold. This would be closer to what you are used to though, yes?"

Lt. JG Sara Bjørge 27-Dec-21 02:11 AM

*Sara alternatively, was well-prepared for winter conditions. A pair of fleece-lined tights beneath her double skirts and a thick, bordering heavy cape swung down from her shoulders to her feet, encasing her in a bright flush of mint green against the bright white of the snow and ice. It was obviously something she'd packed from home, nothing in the replicator system quite looked like it. But Sara was oblivious to the comparison that she conjured of a society bygone from the sands of time and only eagerly cuddled closer to Larkin, happy to give him the excess heat she poured off.. After all, it was kind enough of him to indulge her winter wonderland date, the least she could do is warm him back up.* "Lofoten gets nearly this cold in winter, the north pole is nothing to sniff at. It can be worse than this though- people sometimes have died just going to the grocer. The wind chill, sometimes a few dozen degrees below zero freezes you in place, you can't move, you fall into the snow and are slowly covered by the blizzards until you freeze or suffocate..But! I am told it is not a painful way to go at least." *Way to be macabre on a date, Sara.* "Ah, sorry, not very date-appropriate conversation. *She chuckled, waving her free hand outwards as if to shoo off the spoken negativity like a simple bubble of smoke in the wind.* "But yes, very much like this! It makes for beautiful nights and mornings, but I also sometimes yearn for the warmth of Vulcan. Do you think you could ever live somewhere this cold?" (edited)

*Larkin thought a moment, taking his hands from near the fire and then cupping his ears,* "If I *had* to...I would adapt. As for *want*...it would not be my first choice. Buried under snow is not exactly how I would like to be finished off." *He then remembered that he had stuffed his head wrap into on of his pockets when they were out the door, so he pulled it out, and held it near the fire a moment before slipping it around his head and especially his ice cold pointy ears. Just before his hands found their way into whatever clothed folds Sara had, snuggling close for warmth. Because it was logical. That was his story and he would stick to it, though her soft squish was absolutely delightful, especially when warm.*

Lt. JG Sara Bjørge 27-Dec-21 02:33 AM

"I can understand. The rungs of the North Pole are gorgeous, but not somewhere I would ultimately want to settle down for a family. It can also affect technology aversely. Could you imagine being unable to charge your data rods? The replicator frying from how cold it gets? Terrible." *She hummed in agreement, shaking her head a bit in reply as she settled in close to Larkin, Allowing him to grasp and squeeze at the soft, exposed skin of her arm, his hand nearly halfway up her elongated sleeve. She giggled as he softly squeezed whatever chub he found, delighted that he was being so handsy.* "You *must* be cold, normally I could scarcely get you to kiss me in public, and yet here you are grabbing handfuls of my hip. I might change my mind, maybe we *should* settle somewhere near the ice caps, ja?~"

Dr. Larkin BOT 27-Dec-21 02:42 AM

"Close quarters is logical for survival. You would likely find that neither of us would be able to get anything done as I would have no choice but to permanently attach myself to you for warmth." *He was honestly tempted to pick her up and set her on his lap like a giant teddy bear to hold, but his teeth were not yet chattering.* "Though I would not ask you to live on Vulcan, either. Earth would be a reasonable choice. Close enough to both our families, but in a more agreeable climate. Whatever offspring we have may find that to be more agreeable also."

Lt. JG Sara Bjørge 27-Dec-21 05:24 PM

*Sara looked thoughtful for a moment, wondering exactly how that might work out if she ever took him to the true north pole where some of her extended family lived. Perhaps this was only good as a one-night-time type ordeal, he did look awfully bundled and even still cold. But then again..she did love the idea of his hands never leaving her skin.* "Mm, would that really be so bad?" *She cooed back, though the lilt in her voice insinuated she was only joking, but the feelings she gave off via touch concluded that she had at least considered it for her own selfish desires.* *Though the desires were quick halted at the talk of children, her gaze zipping up to his own, as if she hadn't quite heard him.* "Well. I. ...That was going to be something I brought up to you when we moved in together..I did not want to broach the subject too early and possibly rush things but. I guess we were already on the same track course whether we knew it or not.. I want children, and I guess you do too so. Well that is one conversation down!" *She chuckled, giving him a soft smile as her hands slowly traced across the outline of his own.* "I would not mind living on Vulcan, your dad would undoubtedly want to be near his grandchildren.. I do not think my family would..want to see them in general. It would be more fair to move them closer to the relations that *do* and *would* care about them, no? If either one of us even left Odyssey."

Dr. Larkin BOT 27-Dec-21 11:28 PM

*Larkin had settled comfortably enough and stopped his squirming, resting his chin on Sara's head,* "Vulcan is not far from Earth. Taking a trip would do him good. Of course...it is likely we simply stay on duty. I have no desire to ask you to give up your work and move planet side." *Then he gave a pause. Was he rushing these conversations? He didn't want to assume it was all going to happen, it just seemed like a logical progression.* "Also, I do not want you to think I am trying to rush you or... anything."

Lt. JG Sara Bjørge 28-Dec-21 02:06 PM

*Sara nodded softly, content to lean her cheek against his collarbone and allow him the warmth of her face against his throat. It seemed awkward to talk about on a date, but if they didn't talk about it, how would they ever know until it was facing them in the eyes? It was..logical, as Larkin would say, to nip it in the bud.* "I do not think you are rushing me- I just..I do not know the pace at which is appropriate to bring things up. Humans vary so wildly in their priorities of marriage and families and it seems to always be tentative to bring things like children up..because if we are not married, to say we would have children could come off as presumptuous, and I want your opinions on it- not just what I want and..Ugh. I think. I think would save us both the nerves to just spill what we both seek out of this." *She slipped her fingers down to his, curling them inside of his own in a soft clasp, nuzzling further into the crook of his throat and shoulder affectionately.* "I want to stay on the Odyssey..but I also want marriage and children. I want to spend shore leave visiting your family and seeing the land I come from. We should introduce the babies to both sides of their heritage. Oh. I want.. I want more than one. Baby, I mean. Ideally three..if you find that acceptable." (edited)

Dr. Larkin BOT 28-Dec-21 10:36 PM

"Three? Let us see how the first two go, first shall we? There are also plenty of families that serve on ships. It is possible once we return to our universe...that can be an option."

Lt. JG Sara Bjørge 28-Dec-21 11:07 PM

"Are three too much? Or is it because it is an uneven number? ...We can have four instead?" *She asked, giving Larkin a bit of a laugh and a smile, the idea of four hybrid children on a starship seemed exhausting, especially if there were no other children to play with. She'd have to poke Avarin and see when she and derek were planning on having children- maybe they could plan at the same time? Or maybe even T'Pel.* "I would like that, Kiwi'diwa...but you have not told me of your wants..only agreed to mine. What is it that you want? I want us to meet in the middle and consider all options. If I am your intended, your future mate in the very-not-distant-future, I think we should consider all aspects."

Dr. Larkin BOT 29-Dec-21 12:23 AM

*It took him a second to realize she was teasing him, because he was honestly about to answer that even numbers were somehow agreeable, but kept himself from it.* "You are also highly prone to multiples. We could easily end up with more than three or four if not careful. I would think any more than two and we may want to consider transferring to a station or colony." "As for my wants, they are usually very simple. To continue my work, which I can do anywhere, and to have a healthy and happy mate. In terms of children, I only ever imagined two, but that is not to say more are out of the question. Especially with your bloodlines penchant for twins if not more. At the end of the day, I am adaptable."

Lt. JG Sara Bjørge 29-Dec-21 01:04 AM

"Well, I imagine Avarin and T'Pel and their respective mates are due for children at almost any time, no? Do you think it would be uncouth to ask to plan around the same time? It would make sense for the children of Odyssey officers to be at least somewhat close in age." *Atop that, that's how a lot of women in her village had done things, almost all of them got pregnant at the same time so that they could all help one another.* "But yes, I agree. Perhaps the best course of action is to wait and see. It's a possibility a child could be so tiring in addition to our jobs that we might only have one..But I still wanted your opinion still~ And yes, the chance for triplets and even quads exists- I have cousins in Sweden who are quadruplets and their mom is from a set of triplets." *She explained softly, holding up the coordinating amount of fingers as she spoke.*

Dr. Larkin BOT 30-Dec-21 08:33 PM

"I will let you be the one to speak to them about their future plans. The first one will take time to grow and we will have a better idea then, surely. However, I would like to be bonded before children, but you know that." *The closeness and warmth from it had calmed whatever shivering had threatened to take him, and truth be told he was quite relaxed now. Dating a human was a whole other experience, and it did not take much for Sara's presence to improve his day.* "I am not in a rush."

Lt. JG Sara Bjørge 30-Dec-21 08:44 PM

*She hummed softly in response, her bright green gaze softening on the edges as her eyes glazed over, far too comfortable in his arms to think much more about the subject. Children were a progression that would be made in due time, for now? She was simply happy to think about the now and the immediate future, like them moving in together and their bonding ceremony. Yes, she was more than happy with that and she was sure her deep feelings of contentment could be felt through their skin-on-skin embrace.* "Neither am I. Though..I am pleased to know we have such similar end goals, which..I suppose is the point of talking these things out. But moreover, I am excited to move in with you~ I have been staying over at your quarters more often than not, so to make it official is thrilling..waking up to you every morning is a dream come true." *She whispered, slipping a hand upwards to card through his thick, black hair affectionately.* Though, we *should* likely settle on a date for our bonding ceremony."

3

Dr. Larkin BOT 30-Dec-21 11:35 PM

"We can do that once we settle in. I shall speak with...someone on the matter if not tonight then by tomorrow." *Part of him wanted to wait until they were home, so his father could be present as well as her family should they find it agreeable. Though the more the wheels in his head turned, the more waiting until then seemed like the most logical choice. They were still on a rather dangerous mission.* "I would suggest...that bonding wait until after we return to our universe. There is far too much uncertainty ahead of us...I...feel it would be best." *He wanted to very much, but the memory of T'Pel rambling on strapped to a bio bed came to mind, and truth be told...if something happened to Sara...it would kill him.*

2

Lt. JG Sara Bjørge 30-Dec-21 11:46 PM

*Sara nodded softly, a bit saddened that there wasn't an exact date set, only that it would eventually happen...but then again, Larkin made for a good point. If they waited until they were back in their universe, they could do a proper honeymoon, invite friends and family that weren't aboard, see Larkins' father again! There were a lot of perks to waiting, as much as she was bane to admit it..so she simply snuggled in further, allowing herself a moment of silence to watch the Aurora light up the sky once more in vivid pinks and purples.* "I feel you are right..perhaps *I* am the one rushing, no?" *She teased, giving the Vulcan a bright smile, though he likely couldn't see it due to his chin in the way.* "Your father does not even know we have begun dating. Last he saw of us, we were still scrambling to maintain our friendship boundary..though we see how well that worked~ I wonder what he will say.. It does not seem very Vulcan for him to announce 'I told you so' but..he also seems very much the type to say that *without* saying that~"

Dr. Larkin BOT 31-Dec-21 01:06 AM

"He will in his own way, I am sure. And it is good to talk about such things. I do not feel rushed. If it was not for the breeze on my face I could easily drift off to sleep."

Lt. JG Sara Bjørge 31-Dec-21 01:09 AM

"Perhaps the Auroras are something we can play on the bedroom ceiling to help you fall asleep? And perhaps it might be time for a cup of hot chocolate since it is getting so late? If you would indulge me, of course." *She murmured, nudging him softly to move so that she could get up and acquire the aforementioned drinks....but that also meant moving.* "I will even make sure it has whipped cream?"

Dr. Larkin BOT 31-Dec-21 01:47 AM

*Larkin sat still a moment longer before finally releasing her,* "I suppose a small cup would be... acceptable. Yes to whipped cream."

Lt. JG Sara Bjørge 31-Dec-21 02:09 AM

*She smiled sweetly, pulling away though it was not without some disappointment on her own end. She kissed his hand softly and stood, heading over to one of the small stands that sold tea, coffee, and hot chocolate, or at least..their magical world counterparts. Though thankfully, it seemed that hot chocolate was the same no matter the universe, its rich, dark flavor perfect for such a chilly night. With a bat of her lashes, the whipped cream was piled high on both cups, and Sara came back to her seat next to her intended with a bright smile as she offered the steaming hot cup to him.* "Hot chocolate is a New Years tradition where I am from, you know. You gift new books and drink chocolate and spend the night reading them."

Dr. Larkin BOT 31-Dec-21 02:24 AM

"We do not celebrate the passing of years, though we do acknowledge certain seasonal passings. Though that is more to honor our journey through the ages on the path of logical enlightenment. Though there is one day where the chronometer year changes to the next." *Larkin took the cup in both hands as he spoke, eyeing the white cloud on what was undoubtedly a dark brown liquid. He could smell the chocolate and it tickled his nose. Sugar always had a habit of making his skin react in what Human's called goose bumps. An odd name, but if one had ever seen a freshly plucked bird...it would make more sense.* *His blue eyes moved to Sara, before taking a small sip, not rushing with the hot liquid. The whip cream.melted as soon as it hit his tongue, but it had managed to cool the small bit of chocolate so it did not burn.*

Dr. Amatea Janaii 31-Dec-21 02:59 AM

(Sara) "I did in fact know that, however I think it is good for you to experience other cultures, and if you're going to be my husband? It's good for you to get used to the silly holidays that come with it." *She crooned back, seemingly pleased that he was already drinking the sweet liquid. She was almost ready to drink hers, but added a last ingredient to her's that she had not added on to his. A salt shaker appearified from seemingly nowhere, and she quickly shook it a few times on top of her hot chocolate before stashing it away and finally taking a sip of her own sweet and salty brew.* "Do you believe you have become more logical this past year?"

Dr. Larkin BOT 31-Dec-21 03:20 AM

"Not after this chocolate hits." *He joked, though it was possibly true.* "For me, it is less about my own logic and more of remembrance of the struggle and what was lost. As a people, we did not learn easily and it took millennia before we were able to improve. Though I also believe it is a good time to remember that we are not finished, and will never be finished. Growth is an on going affair. Sometimes I think some forget that. Though...that is where logic comes in. It keeps us from falling off the tracks." *Larkin quirked a brow at the salt, but to each their own. Perhaps he would try it another time. He leaned back and took another sip before resting the cup on his chest, being sure his hands still held it upright.*

Lt. JG Sara Bjørge 31-Dec-21 04:29 PM

"That is..very well put, my love. We are always improving on ourselves and there is no end because there is no perfection in imperfect creatures." *She repeated, giving a slight nod of her head, silently agreeing with the notion. She took a sip of her salted hot chocolate and gave a low hum of approval, looking to Larkin gratefully as she drank in the warmth of the mug around her fingers.* "Hard to imagine Vulcans need logic to keep from becoming big know-it-all perfectionists. Though, even I will freely admit that you are quite close to the threshold of alleged perfection..but I might be biased." (edited)

Dr. Larkin BOT 31-Dec-21 08:03 PM

"Just wait until I get comfortable and become lax in my tidiness. I have to admit, despite my organization in Sickbay...I have always had issue making sure things find their place at home. Usually because I am lost in reading." *Larkin took another sip,* "I will say that where people may think of perfection, it is actually a simple matter of compatibility. What you find so agreeable in me, or I you, someone else could find fault with. It all depends on one's preference."

2

Lt. JG Sara Bjørge 31-Dec-21 09:52 PM

"Luckily for you, my workplace is quite messy- but my home space I keep quite tidy. We balance each other out and did not even know it~" *She cooed, giving him a cheesy smile from atop the rim of her hot chocolate.* "Have you been on the receiving end of that? Someone being disagreeable with you, or finding fault that is?" *Of course she was hinting at his prior marriage with N'Vae. He did not speak on it often, but with their own bonding ceremony looming overhead, she was becoming curious as to what he had been like while married, what he expected of marriage. Though she would quickly change subject if it seemed as if he was apprehensive..she only wanted to learn, not hurt him.*

Dr. Larkin BOT 01-Jan-22 02:35 AM

*Larkin thought for a moment,* "I have come across people who are unnerved by the calm and tranquility. The usual 'Vulcan's are impossible to anger' trope." *Larkin was oblivious of her curiosity regarding N'Vae, however.*

Dr. Amatea Janaii 01-Jan-22 02:38 AM

(Sara) "What about in your personal life? Your relationships, your former marriage?" *It seemed Sara had no trouble mincing words despite chocolate not being in inebriator in Humans. She simply settled in further and took another sip of her dark chocolate drink while she waited for him to respond.* (edited)

Dr. Larkin BOT 01-Jan-22 03:02 AM

*Larkin blinked. He had not realized that's what she had been after. Though it wasn't painful, he had to think a much longer moment.* "N'Vae thought that I studied too much. Though...I thought I had time to. Until it was too late. She also was not thrilled with my inability to pick up my clothes." *He knew better now; to stop and smell the roses so to speak. His mother's passing had driven him, and his mate's passing had stopped him in his tracks. Life's lessons were often difficult if not down right painful.*

Lt. JG Sara Bjørge 01-Jan-22 10:56 AM

*She nodded quietly, thinking of how difficult that had been for him. He had been married for a few dozen years in the very least. Sometimes the perspective shift was so wild, Larkin was older than her father, he had so much more life experience, so much more heart ache..she sometimes wondered what he saw in her.* "Much like logic, knowledge is ever-growing and changing. There is nothing wrong with increasing your knowledge database. However, I will make a deal with you as far as quarters-living. I will tidy the quarters as long as you do not mind the quarters being a bit of..a nursery." *It was no secret Sara had amassed a ridiculous amount of plants, her own shared quarters something of it's own jungle..but Vulcans did not exactly live in lush, tropical environments. It would be a vast change for him, but she was certain if she promised to tidy, he would not mind so much her enthusiastic garden.* (edited)

Dr. Larkin BOT 01-Jan-22 05:14 PM

*Larkin knew her entire career was centered around plants, so that was hardly an issue. The plants were an agreeable change to rock and sand,* "As long as they do not expect to sleep with us, and I have a place to meditate and read, I have no issue with that, K'diwa."

Lt. JG Sara Bjørge 01-Jan-22 05:51 PM

*Sara nodded in agreement, she could promise that much..if only barely. She took another deep sip of her drink and settled in closer to him before looking away. The auroras were still playing brightly over the mountainside, the water below giving it an almost mirror-like effect. It really was gorgeous.* "Is it okay to ask..what she was like? You have barely ever said a word about N'Vae..until tonight, I was not entirely sure of her name." *She murmured, watching as the subtle purple morphed into fluorescent greens. It reminded her so much of Norway in that way.* "She is part of your past, part of the way of life that has shaped you, and I would not be the type to be hurt or jealous of your past. Only curious."

Dr. Larkin BOT 01-Jan-22 07:33 PM

"I do not speak of her often because I usually have no reason to do so. She is not relevant to my work and does not often come up." *Larkin took a sip, gathering his thoughts of N'Vae,* "N'Vae was practical, but gentle. It made her particularly talented when dealing with children. She was a school instructor for the younger students."

Lt. JG Sara Bjørge 01-Jan-22 07:58 PM

"Gentleness is a virtue with small children." *Sara agreed, an idea of what N'Vae may have looked like forming in her head. However terrible her fate was, and as much as she was sure was missed, Sara still felt a shameful dose of gratitude. Not that she had died, but that Larkin had gotten love, affection, and N'Vae had gotten it as well. It was a huge, lonely world and creature comforts were so rare. She was glad they'd had a happy marriage, though the pinprick of sadness along with it..she hoped N'Vae's sickness had not lasted long..she could not imagine she herself drawing out her own death, if only for Larkins' sake. But with she a Human, Larkin could possibly yet again experience it a second time- even modern medicine did not always result in a cure.* "You were married for a number of years, I was surprised to learn you had no children between you. But back then, I did not think it appropriate to ask why with us only as friends." (edited)

Dr. Larkin BOT 01-Jan-22 09:41 PM

"We we're not in any rush. As I said...I thought I had time. I...did not. It is no matter. What is past is past. It is illogical to dwell on it unnecessarily. I can give you her file if you would like." *It was a human trait, to dwell and on the emotional, not the Vulcan way. Larkin didn't really have many things to say. He had often focused more on his studies, which had for a long time been a sore spot. However that was when he decided to be more sociable and take time.*

2

Lt. JG Sara Bjørge 01-Jan-22 10:07 PM

*Illogical indeed. But what could she say? She was only Human and she of course felt some remorse for the 'happiness' Larkin could have had despite her delight that she had him now. Even she sometimes gave thought to the life she could have lived on Lofoten, the dark haired man with near ringlet curls, and eyes as black as coals she had been promised to for a few fishing boats.. That night burned at her anger slightly..but even still. She wondered sometimes what she would be like had she never left- though she supposed Vulcans would not dwell on such silliness. She could feel the slight rush to his tone, an empath she was not, but with her family the way it was, she had learned to read vocal cues extremely well.* "No need, My Love. Though I always appreciate you indulging me regardless." *She cooed softly, taking another deep drink from her cup, nearly halfway through with her own, though a touch of whipped cream found its way onto the tip of her nose. She began to look for a napkin as she spoke once more.* "Besides, I imagine I'd have about as much to read on her Starfleet profile as you would on *my* former betrothed. A skim at best." (edited)

Dr. Larkin BOT 02-Jan-22 09:48 PM

"Once we are bonded, departing better information about her will be...easier. I apologize as I do not seem to have the words to do so." *Larkin looked down into his cup, and could feel the chocolate making his head a tad swimmy, and suddenly he felt a tad sad. Though he did his best to push it back. Though his ears twitched and his mind focused on a different subject...* "Your *former* betrothed?"

Lt. JG Sara Bjørge 02-Jan-22 10:02 PM

*Sara looked up from her drink once more, giving Larkin a subtle nod as if it were the most casual statement in the world to have made.* "Ja, we met a few times. He was polite enough..but he never had much to say to me, barely ever looked at me. I am not so sure even he was thrilled with the match." *She explained with a smile, slipping a hand into Larkins' own, pleased at the warm sensation that traveled through her fingertips with only his touch.* "His name was Erich, the eldest son of Markus Sjögren- ah, he owns the big fishing trollers on Lofoten. Marriage is a common tactic to gain money and trade. Marrying into that family would have helped my father a lot..he was getting old and did not want to work anymore." *She murmured, guilt spiking at her own words.* "Erich is not a bad man, but I wanted more than to sit at home all day and knit..cook..barefoot and pregnant." *She waved her hand as if to dismiss the thought quickly.* "-There is nothing wrong with that if you want it..I just did not." (edited)

Dr. Larkin BOT 03-Jan-22 08:06 PM

"Ah. Well, all the better for me." *Larkin answered, settling in more now that the Coco had warmed him internally, and her shared body heat. Though he was beginning to get drowsy.* "You may need to escort me back to my quarters, however. I am feeling...fuzzy."

6

Lt. JG Sara Bjørge 06-Jan-22 03:49 PM

"Yeah, might be a good idea. Does fuzzy thoughts lead to fuzzy cuddles perhaps?" *She asked, a smile curling onto the pink of her lips as she gathered both of their now finished cups and stood up to dispose of them. Once her hands were cleared of the mugs, she walked back over to Larkin and held out both hands with intentions to help him to his feet.* "Fuzzy off one glass though? I wonder what would happen you ate chocolate in a more concentrated form~"

3

Dr. Larkin BOT 06-Jan-22 07:42 PM

*Larkin took her hands and let her assist him,* "Cuddles can be arranged, yes. Also...I do not imbibe often. I am a bit of a lightweight. Though there is no need to be too concerned of me losing my balance and falling over." *That did not stop him from keeping at least one hand on her, burning it under her hair for warmth.* "Lead the way, Ashaya."
