Brenden picked up his axe that emitted ice, staring at it for the longest time. Time was given to him to relearn his fighting ways. He didn’t like the fact he was ordered around by someone he hated so deeply. Someone he wishes would die. He knew in his mind he could pick up his weapons and kill anything without issue. It was the fact he didn’t want the lifestyle anymore, he dreaded it. But deep down, he knew what he was. Dead eye Grimes. A cold blooded killer without regret. 

He knew what he needed to do. He had to kill the one he hated to protect what is his. He knew the type of people she was around, that one person he has wanted to end for a long time. It was now or never as he looked at both his weapons.

“Dead eye Grimes...is back.” With the coolest of voices.

Brenden felt more playful today being back in the Reach. He and Iris got their typical dessert. Rainbow cake. After getting their baked goods, they headed for the Sun. The place they met a year ago. It was a special place to them. Stepping into the place, they took a spot at the bar, both ordering a glass of milk to go with their cake. Interesting enough, a young girl’s eyes caught the sight of Iris’s Quaggan backpack. She poked at it, admiring it. Only to be greeted by a little white kitten named, Stardust. The girls name was DJ. A very hyper, yet strong girl. She was able to life Brenden up. All three hundred pounds of man and armor. Brenden was in shock how she was able to do that. Then again, Iris did it once as well. Brenden grinned and decided to return the favor. He lifted the small red headed girl in one arm and also picked up another friend of Brenden and Iris’s. Raven. He held both girls in each arm and decided to give them a little spin. He span in place for a good minute and then stopped, setting both ladies down. Raven was dizzy, but held her ground. DJ on the other hand, went spinning in all directions before stopping. DJ them got underneath Raven and carried her out like riding a horse. Brenden and Iris followed suit. DJ started to do handstands and cartwheels. Brenden thought he could do a handstand, but learned heavy armor was not a good thing for that. He got up on his hands and ended up flat on his back. Figured he was drunk, a random woman threw a glass of water on him. Least to him, he didn’t need a bath now.

Raven said her goodbye’s and then departed. Guess she had enough of what was going on. Iris on the other hand wanted salted carrots. Another wild pregnancy craving. Her and Brenden went back inside the tavern and ordered her carrots, he got ice water because he wanted to do one thing with it. He plucked a piece of ice from the glass and walked behind DJ, he dropped the ice down her back. DJ started to jump and spin around trying to get the ice out, only to run into a wall. Ended what grin Bren had. He got death stares from her friend. His guard down, Iris also dropped a piece of ice into his armor, making him jump also. He didn't care after a moment since he lived in the damn Shiverpeaks. 

DJ got up unharmed and went bouncing away, laughing evilly. The friend of hers recalled Brenden as a villain because of his pauldrons. His spikes. Of course Brenden denounced it. She walked over and started to share stories before introducing themselves. Eventually after twenty minutes of talking, Brenden and Iris departed and headed for the Grove for their next honeymoon spot.

The wedding was non-traditional, held on a ship near Rata Sum’s seaport, the guests a blend of family and a peculiar array of friends. Mia went alone, Rick having been busy with work, which exposed her to her mother’s prods and nudges - but they were, in truth, welcome distractions from her overall discomfort.

Mia had loved her wedding. Marrying Rick was a literal a dream come true. The experience had not, however, made her any more comfortable with watching other people do it. She felt awkward when the two spoke of their love, however heartfelt and sweet the words were; she simply couldn’t shake the feeling that she was watching something not meant for others to see.

Still, she was happy for her brother. The couple seemed both excited and content, and they certainly were not wanting for affection. She hoped that they would be even a fraction as happy as she was.

Her thoughts flicked back to earlier in the day, and she felt a surge of heat mixed with raw adoration. She was going to have to excuse herself from the reception somewhat early - Mia was anxious to go home to her own husband, to see Rick’s face, to kiss him and breathe him in … and her patience was severely lacking.

Of course when you go on a honeymoon. You gotta do it with style. Easy enough for Brenden to bribe one of the helium balloon drivers into renting it for a week to fly him and his new wife Iris around Tyria. He wanted to make sure it would be a rememberable honeymoon for the both of them. 

First place was Southsun, he knew Iris loved the beach and the fruity drinks they served. What other better place to start? They landed safely after flying for what felt like days. She was excited to start this vacation, even making a new bathing suit for herself, well one that could be worn by a seven month pregnant woman. Brenden on the other hand was just happy to finally be married after months of waiting for the right moment.

Brenden and Iris spent that night on the beach, sipping drinks (non alcoholic) eating grilled veggies and fruits. Watching their pet kittens play in the sand. They both knew this was going to be a wonderful life together. But for now, it was relaxing time.

Only if he knew a song like this existed.

On this day of the season of the Phoenix. Brenden Grimes wedded his fiancee Iris Blackthorn. It was something a long time coming for months and finally it happened for the couple. Friends and family watched as both were united together. And in a few months, they’ll have their first child together

Only happy days can be ahead.

Brenden learned the dangers of hunting for eggs. One rolls under the bed, he goes in to get it. One pink haired fiancee gives his bum a smack, then he knocks the back of his noggin on the bed frame. 

A year ago, he gets an eye injury from the battle in Lion’s Arch. Present day, he gets hurt retrieving an egg from under the bed.

Life of a husband and father now. 

[brendengrimes-blog-blog]

Brenden laid down the word to his sister. He wasn't picking up his weapons again. Not for battle or war anyway. He had a baby coming and knew it was time to leave behind that lifestyle. For Iris and his unborn child's sake. He didn't want to leave them husband and fatherless. 

Mia understood where he was coming from, he then asked if she was still going to fight. Her response was that marriage didn’t make her soft. Onyx was still alive and waiting. Waiting for the right moment to strike. Onyx wanted that family dead. Including Iris and Rick who were a part of that family now. 

Brenden wasn't concerned over Onyx, but more concerned of marriage. He wasn’t experienced to it and of course was nervous about it. He loves Iris more than anyone in the world, but the fear of messing up was lingering in his mind. He didn’t want to have a violent reaction towards Iris or hurt the child in anyway. But he knew he had to figure out something to ease his worries over it. In less than a week. He was going to be a married man. But for now, its who to invite?

I don’t even...

“You keep a close watch to those saplings. With everything that is going on in the world now, you can never tell what will happen.” He nods and glances around the area. “Me being a father is a big step, so no more dangerous work. I live life as a jeweler now. And speaking of, if you’re ever interested in a custom piece or something nice for someone. I can give you a very reasonable price. I wouldn't charge much for a friend. But that’s good you've been doing well out there and I’m sorry about your miss and hit on a husband. But one day, you never know.” He smiles. 

“But yes she is six months along and the baby is healthy as far as my fiancee’s sister knows. She isn’t a doctor like you, but she works in necromancer magic. If you’d like to check her out sometime, I would be happy getting a second opinion or reassurance essentially.” 

'Long time, no see.' the sylvari has a weary look to her, as though someone had suctioned the energy out through the bottoms of her feet. She raises her glass in a half-toast. 'What's been keeping you busy? Nothing too stressful, I hope.'

Brenden chuckled. “Would you believe a wedding and soon to be daddy? Nervous as hell about it all. Especially being a father. But how are you? I would have hoped to see you around the Reach. But I don’t make it out there a lot, living out in Snowden and all.” He raised a glass of cider. “Oh and I’ve given up drinking until my fiancee can drink again.”

You said: Brenden grinned. “Well she is a married woman now. Maybe Rick is willing to do a three way? Who knows! All I know is, my sister needed a common girlfriend.” He smirked slyly.

"Do you secretly want my sister?" (Refollow me, had to delete and remake)

((ack! I don’t know how I missed this!))

Kit looked at the man with an amused smirk, “Mia? Well…that’s hardly a secret now is it?”

“You fight or you die. Its kill or be killed. That’s the world we live in now. Trust no one, not even the ones you feel that would protect you.”

“Can’t believe my own baby sister got married before me. Regardless of that. Congratulations dear sis.”

It was a small, quiet ceremony with family and friends, held on 82, Season of the Zephyr, 1328 AE; the spot - a bit of peaceful field to the west of Claypool, across the lake - was of some sentimental significance, and the whole event was held without any real fanfare.

Brenden held his love in his arms. She was already six months into her pregnancy. He smiled at the eager thought of being a father. Yet nervous at the same time.

He smiled down at Iris and she returned a smile right back at him.

“I’m sleepy. I want a little nap now.” Iris said to Brenden.

Brenden nodded and laid her back onto the bed. Covering up the small figure. He lied right next to her and cuddled into her. “I love you so much.” He said and gave her a kiss on the lips.

She looked at him with a truly happy smile. “And I love you too big daddy.” She giggled a sleepy sounding giggle at that and closed her eyes. Brenden followed suit and closed his. Both drifting off into a deep sleep that night.
