Ariadne Sandalwood's Links
I know that Teige doesn't feel the same way about me that I do about her, but I'm completely in love with them. I... know that it can't last. After all, they came to me for help, and the only way that I could do that was to trap them here with me for the rest of Ezri's life. But I love her, in every way, no matter what she's done.
I think Ariadne loves me, and I've never been interested in a romantic relationship with anyone. What's the point in hand-holding and snuggling, especially if you're as damned as I am? But on the other hand, I always knew Ariadne would do anything for me, and if I had to spend the rest of her life with her, then I could stand it.
I love Ezri as though she's my own daughter. It took a lot to convince the rest of the family that I was going to adopt her, and that there was nothing that they could do about it, but they compromised when I agreed she wouldn't take our name. I've taught her everything I can about witchcraft, to make sure she can defend herself.
I've always thought of Ariadne as my mother, even though she and Teige have always made it clear that I'm adopted. But I know she loves me, and I know that even though she's more than a little over-protective, she means well. And all of the witchcraft stuff is amazing, even if the Sandalwoods don't like me for some reason.
