kingsroads: (huh what)

Unfortunately, while Shura is backing out of the sad backstory hour, Strange decides to lean in to it—at least, to this part of it. More talking about Arabella can come after he's a bit sloshed. Because something about her statement annoys him. Is that all she sees him as? Someone from a good family?

"No, it isn't. You know I had a wife—Arabella. I've mentioned her to you before. Well, my father objected to my courting her. Not because she worshiped a different god or was of a different race. But because she was poor. She was the daughter of a pastor with little to her name. Thankfully, my father froze to death partway through the courtship," Strange says with a nonchalant air (dad died! who cares!) "but I still would have pursued her even if he remained alive."
