*****************************************************************

Alisha’s answer was gorgeous. There was no other word that summed up everything that ran through her mind. Cute, delicate, fiery, marblesque… all fell under that uniquely gorgeous category. In a manner beyond human or Godly monster, or any Alisha had seen in her brief life.

The first thing to captivate her was unimaginably expressive eyes. Gems the colour of peach, dancing a fine line between pink and brown. Pale and captivating. Shock blew them wide, even as a weariness hardened them, and something void of sanity swum in their pale depths. There was something innocent about them, how large and clear they were perhaps, topped by a petite brow that seemed to carry the weight of the world and pale hair a shade between winter sunshine and summer dried grass. Hair with a short cut, wispy fringe and hanging in girlish pigtails tucked between delicate little ears… with little earrings shaped like a butcher’s knife from a murder scene, complete with photo realistic colour decal. The Alice in wonderland went batshit crazy theme continued with a lavender summers dress, ending just above delicate knees, leaving little black shoes suited to a child on display. Shoes bathed in blood; little bows knocked askew.

“Who are you?” The woman demanded; voice shrill. Soft looking lips, only half coated with a dappling of peach lipstick, peeled back from teeth. Sharp teeth. Teeth with the top canines extended almost like fangs, though evidently within the human vein of acceptable. An adorable, proud yet dainty nose turned upwards, thin nostrils flaring as if scenting the air for the next kill. So, it was becoming apparently clear Alice should never have left wonderland… but even on the rampage, her unique appearance still fell in gorgeous. Godly even. As if carved from the finest marble, then drizzled with a faint layer of gold so she gleamed in the light.

“That was a stupid question. I know who you are. What the hell were you thinking? Just barging in here like that! I could have turned you into… well, a museum piece! Do you know how many museum pieces my sisters have donated?”

Something about the way she spoke of museum pieces made Alisha feel entirely uneasy. As if these pieces could feel… but that would mean… oh. Oh no. Please no.

Alisha went to open her mouth, went to speak, only for an utterly confused squeak to escape. Enough to make her want to facepalm. She was usually calm and rational, heck she faced down Hercules on the daily, but some insane chick had her squeaking. How was that even a thing? Well, she had to be real. She had a real-life Godly Monster, someone so potent she had etched her name in history, in her living room. So, she had it down to one out of three to guess from, but what would happen if she got it wrong? She had to think carefully, try to piece everything together on the fly. A beauty carved of stone, who spoke of statues as if they were living beings, with sharpened teeth? A woman who had an unhealthy obsession with knives and inflicting pain on demigods… or anything really… anybody? Why was Alisha still looking into her eyes?

“I’m sorry, I don’t know who you a- you’re hurt.” She’d started carefully, tilting her gaze cautiously to avoid looking as intimidated as she was, only to notice the black patch against the woman’s ribcage. No matter who, no matter what she was, she was hurt. She was bleeding all over her own shoes. Over Alisha’s furniture. And she was kind of sweet, even with the psychotic side. This was a woman who’d left helpful messages and items to support Alisha through some tough times. It made sense now why the acts were humanly inappropriate. Could Alisha really hold cultural differences against an injured woman?

“No I’m not!” The woman’s snappiness made Alisha’s heart jump. Her insides lurched, every droplet of blood trying to relocate an inch to the left. Yet, somehow, she didn’t move a muscle. The HERA agent simply stood her ground, extending her hand as she pointed to the dark patch against the lavender.

“What’s that then?” Alisha demanded, watching the other woman lower her gaze. Peach eyes fixed on the wound for a split second, lips pursing in clear irritation. Something about it had Alisha thinking the irritation was more for the dress than the cut.

“It’s a flesh wound.”

… apparently Alisha was right.

“That’s still hurt!” Alisha finally snapped, her exasperation bursting through her human instinct to fear the godly.

“Are you calling me weak?” The woman’s sharp demand was accompanied by an earthquake worthy shift in her attitude. The peach in her eyes shrunk, the band of colour narrowing down to pinpoints even as her eyes blew wide. A crazed monster, matched by the rows of unnaturally sharp teeth, which she had bared in a wide mouthed snarl. Something Alisha couldn’t help but smile at. Granted, she probably should have been revaluating her strategy given there was also a giant leopard seal snarling from her couch, with teeth for days and murder in its lavender eyes, embraced by a halo of lavender that betrayed it was definitely this woman’s aura… but, of course, Alisha didn’t. The longer she stared at the flex of aura, for every breath of salt and brine she inhaled, she could feel an answering tide within her. It swelled in her chest, overcoming her entire being, washing away all possibility and competition until it was the only thing that could escape her.

“Euryale.” The name tasted so right. How a word could have taste, Alisha couldn’t begin to explain. Yet, the way it rolled across her tongue, how it made her lips caress the syllables… it was the tide, an ebb and flow, the rolling of waves in her mouth to which Alisha was helpless to resist. The ancient name held such wonder, such elegance, something delicate and something fierce. Of course this was Euryale. How could Alisha have ever thought otherwise? She lacked the force of Stheno, nor held the renowned grace of Medusa. Euryale was potent emotion. The myths of her cries crumbling stone played in the back of Alisha’s mind, for if she were stone, she truly doubted she could handle anguish in such a raw form. Not if Euryale expressed it like she expressed her irritation.

“You’re not weak, at all, but you are hurt. I don’t understand any of what is going on, why you’ve been leaving me messages, or why you’re hurt, but you are hurt. I need to help you. I’m not about to turn you over to H.E.R.A. If you’d wanted to hurt me, you wouldn’t have sent me all those nice things. You’d have already done it. For now, that’s enough for me to trust you. Can you now trust me?” Alisha’s words were spoken gently, as one might speak to a nervy colt. She could only watch as peach reclaimed white, swelling until there was barely white left. Those gorgeous eyes glistened, oceans beginning to trickle from them before everything withdrew. Then, the scent was only a memory. The seal as tangible as a dream one couldn’t quite remember after waking.

“You don’t know… was my intent not clear?” The Gorgon questioned, lower lip trembling as she pouted. Alisha could only shake her head.

“Charybdis and Prime told me that lines of courtship were still done in human society! They even had me spend hours memorising hundreds of atrocious lines that I might woo you properly! They said romantic notes held universal intent!” Euryale went from mopey to utterly infuriated within a blink, stamping her little black flats into the pool of blood and salt water. Alisha could only blink.

“You were… you were attempting to hit on me?”

“I spent days researching the languages of the finest poets under their guidance, only for you not to understand their complexity?” The Gorgon continued. Alisa could only bite her lip, struggling not to laugh.

“You… googled pickup lines?”

Euryale’s cheeks flushed.

“Prime told me that was how you wooed in this era!” Euryale whined, crossing her arms defensively across her chest. With every frustrated huff, her murderous little earrings jingled, making Alisha’s struggle to keep her composure that much harder.

“And stabbed them into my door? For weeks…”

“I read delivery should be given personal flare! Stheno said I should be direct!”

Well… she was direct alright.

“By stabbing my door… for weeks…” Alisha reiterated, voice lacking emotion. Aphrodite was going to have a field day with this. May was probably already planning friendfictons… Alisha could only facepalm.

“I had to research your patterns for months to establish an appropriate time schedule-”

“Are you confessing to stalking me? For months?” Alisha had to cut in. So, that explained some things, probably should have freaked her out too… but could she completely fault this adorable creature? Ok, so it was unquestionably out of line, something that Alisha would have to have some strong words with Euryale about, and Euryale was a poster child for sweet but psycho… but it was somehow charming too. Euryale looked very much like a teenager grumbling about a crush. All the social floundering, the sincere effort put into it. So, things were very lost in translation, but… it was kind of endearing watching an ancient godly monster try to act like a twenty-year-old.

“I was observing! I had to perfect the wedding gifts.”

“Wedding…?”

“The exchange of blades? A proposal? You accepted them… you didn’t know their meaning, did you?”

Again, Alisha could only shake her head. No. Nope. Absolutely no clue.

What followed was a tirade of ancient Greek, spoken so vehemently it could be nothing but the most enthusiastic of cussing fits. It was accompanied by little stamps and huffs, so reminiscent of a toddler throwing a tantrum that Alisha was caught between cooing at the more twee aspects of the scenario or blushing at the few phrases she could roughly understand. She did neither. Before she could decide, Euryale’s foot came down that bit too hard in her previous mess, splattering little pink droplets across the floor. Her shoe slid through the puddle, sending the Gorgon sprawling onto the couch with the grace of a beached whale, and a terrified yelp that cut Alisha to the core. Before Euryale could stop it, a pitiful whine escaped her, degrading Alisha’s mind to one goal.

Comfort.

She sprang into action, reaching to press her hands tightly to the wound even as she broke into babbling.

“Hey, hey, hey! I am sure you’re really lovely, and would make a wonderful, erm, soulmate. But I haven’t really gotten to know you, and I really appreciate the knives, but I’m not ready for marriage… maybe we could start with something simple? Like coffee?” It was after her verbal outpouring that Alisha realised this was the first time she was touching Euryale. Months of gifts and messages had finally led to this. It should have been ground-breaking; Alisha had expected the moment to erode the mountains. Expected her heart to seize in her chest… but everything was still. The heat of blood and comfortable curve of Euryale’s body didn’t leave her brain melted. Didn’t feel monumental the way she’d expected. It was natural, just like the act of taking breath, as if she’d been born to do precisely this.

“Coffee?” The hopeful yet confused way Euryale muttered that had Alisha practically melting. How was this twee little psychopath so adorable?

“Yep. Maybe some dinners, or some movies? Oh, do you have a phone?”

“A… phone?”

“So we can call and text. I adore the gifts, but I can’t afford to keep replacing the door, not to mention if someone breaks in, I’m only human.”

“You’re Hera.” The Gorgon whispered, looking into Alisha’s eyes. Again, the peach had swallowed the white, brimming with such profound sorrow that Alisha couldn’t resist leaning closer to press her lips to the Gorgon’s forehead.

“I’m still only human… so, coffee?”

“Coffee.” Euryale agreed, lips pulling into a timid smile. Before either woman could process more, The Gorgon flinched, a hiss escaping between her teeth.

“And bandages?” Alisha suggested, earning some form of snort from Euryale to accompany the flush to her cheeks and the growing little smile.

“Bandages are good.”

In hindsight, Alisha probably should have asked what had happened, but she was far too lost in that gorgeous smile, in that beautiful moment of vulnerability, to do anything more than come to two very startling conclusions.

One - she was the biggest sapphic disaster to ever walk the earth.

Two - If Euyrale didn’t stop being so endearing, Alisha was absolutely fucked.

Episode recap of "A New Courtship"

Season 5, Episode 1 - September 11, 2017

From tvguide.com: "Joy's wedding planning begins with a walk-through of the venue; the Seewalds and the Vuolos meet up in San Antonio for a stroll down memory lane; the Dillards get settled in Central America; Joe asks Kendra an important question." Or in other words...nothing new is happening here.

1. Jessa is packing to go with her little family to see Jinger and Jeremy in San Antonio. They will fly to San Antonio and JinJer will drive up to meet them there. She says it's the first time she's going to see JinJer in Texas since the wedding. Depending on when this was filmed she could be telling the truth but we've seen photos of her on various trips to Texas. Spud throws slobber at Jessa as she talks about Hank being a 15 pound two month old wearing six month clothing. Jessa's milk must have extra fat and calories. She makes big babies. Hank screams, Spud climbs on the table and Jessa is pretty much done before she even gets out of the house. Hank + Spud = natural birth control. Somehow they make it to the airport after talking it up about how hard it will be to travel with two babies. They conveniently forget to mention that Jana and Laura are going with them to help out. TLC again hides that fact in order to push the Benessa struggling with kids angle. Remember when Jana went on the RV trip with Turndanna and their kids and she was hidden from the audience? Remember when Jessa took control of all of the kids at the thrift store after Markie was rushed to the hospital with a head wound? We found out later that Hannie was in the store helping out as well and hidden from the cameras. Never trust a Counting On storyline. Anyway, Jana and Laura hang out a lot together and make a really cute couple. I can't wait for their wedding episode. The ratings will be out of this world!

2. Next we see Babe and Love at their old apartment in Laredo. They are packing for the trip too. They talk about their season of life of being alone with no kids and the fact that they are early risers. Yay, no kids yet! Boooo, early risers! I'll never understand those people. Jinger talks about the sleeping habits of her family and how they tend to always stay up late and sleep later in the mornings. Sleep deprivation is a sign of a cult. It's why we always see the Duggar kids sleeping in their clothes, on the floor, and other weird habits. The kids are kept awake until they drop. JinJer take off for San Antonio well rested and childless. I'm betting their blood pressure levels are way lower than Benessa's.

3. At the Duggar cult compound, Joy rehashes her kinky blindfolded engagement. Miss Cindy is back to help arrange another wedding. Joy meets Miss Cindy at the door and then walks behind the kitchen counter to hide her body. I wonder.... Joy and Austin present themselves as majorly horny in this scene. They just want to get married so they can boink each others' brains out. Joy says she doesn't care much about the ceremony. She just wants it to be over so she can get on with the sex and Austin's only concern about the reception is to get out of there fast so he can screw all night. They didn't use those exact words but we know what they mean. Such godly people. I think a little less sex talk and a little more modesty in that area might make you actually look more like Christians. Modesty isn't just about clothes. At the church venue, Joy talks about serving her guests junk snacks at the reception because there will be so many people and that's just how all the other weddings have gone. Ask for a $200 gift and get a pickle in return. That's the Duggar grifting way of celebrating.

4. Warning: A grumpy Spud trapped in an airplane is not a good scenario. Cheapness won out over common sense and Benessa decided against getting Spud his own seat where he could have been safely strapped into a car seat. Actually, TLC probably paid for the flight since they filmed it so why the cheapness? These scenes are totally not Spud's fault. He's a kid who has only been walking for a short time and he wants to use those legs, damn-it! If he was in a car seat he would have just considered this another car trip and would have been okay and maybe taken a nap. Well, Spud is their eldest and he is the one to train his parents out of their naivete. Jessa tries the blanket training crap on the floor of the plane but Spud knows they won't smack him in public so he's out of there fast.

5. Derick hasn't been sunglared out just yet after insulting TLC and transgender people all over the world. He's back on the show and in El Salvador with a very pregnant Jill and little Izzy. Idiot Derick asks Izzy if he wants Coffee. Smart Izzy politely says no, he wants peanut butter. Then he says, "Thank you, mommy." when he gets his spoonful of peanut butter. At two, Izzy is way beyond his parents in smarts and manners. The Dillards are back in El Salvador and are already whining about the living conditions. The danger, the distant gun shots, the mountain lions, the lack of babysitters are scary for idiots who just want to help people get to heaven. People who already have a great chance of ending up in heaven but not in Derick's dumb mind and false interpretation of the bible. While the Dillards sit behind barb wire with an armed guard on the compound, they greatly suffer with having wifi, computers, iPhones, a gas stove, refrigerator, washing machine, microwave and air condition. Such a struggle for a young couple of douchebags. Sorry, Derick has lost any of my desire to hold back my attitude towards him. His whining, judging, grifting, arrogant, hateful, ignorant, sleezy ways are not a good example of a North American missionary and I profusely apologize to Central America for having to deal with him and Jill. I'm sure now that the Dillards have quit missioning, Central America is greatly relieved.

6. Benessa and JinJer are reunited in San Antonio. Sidehugs galore happen and little Hank is fat shamed by Jeremy more than once. Poor kid. On the way to a pizza place, Jeremy points out a duck to Spud who quickly chucks his empty bottle at the poor bird. The kid's got an arm. It reminded me of when my baby niece was at the zoo and she threw her bottle into the gorilla habitat. She and Spud were just trying to share with the animals in their own way. Jinger and Jessa fish the bottle out of the river with an umbrella but I sure hope they threw it away and didn't give that bacteria filled thing back to Spud. With their habit of being cheap, I bet they gave it right back to Spud. Enjoy the diarrhea diapers. At dinner, Jeremy and Ben reminisce about how they met which might have been the most romantic moment of this courting/wedding prep episode.

7. Benessa and JinJer and a hidden Jana and Laura hit a paleta place for a treat. This gives the producers the chance to question the other Duggars on how to pronounce paleta and to explain what it is. Of course this moment of dumbassery is embarrassing for all. In tribute to my page and all the truths I tell here, the Duggar girls decide to eat the pickle flavored paletas. I am happy for their acknowledgement of my work on their behalf. Thank you. After the popsicles, they head off the visit the Alamo where mysteriously Jeremy says to Benessa, "You guys have multiplied twice. I have multiplied once." Is Jeremy confessing to having a love child? Jeremy is not dumb like Derick. I think he understands that Benessa multiplying twice means having two children and him multiplying once must mean he has a child. Someone needs to dig deeper into his background. Or maybe he's confessing that Jinger has gotten pregnant but it was a miscarriage. Well that is a sad thought.

8. Back at the Duggar compound, Jana, of course, is up early making breakfast. Go to bed late, wake up early, leaves little time to think about the falsehoods that are being fed to them on a daily basis. The Duggar boys' room is a mess, full of crap laying around, three tiered bunk beds and teenagers and 20 year old men sleeping in their clothes. Joe is primping in front of the mirror. He's planning on taking Kendra to a car auction and then to propose courtship to her. How not romantic. Joe says he works at the family car lot. I thought they said he got his real estate license and was working in the family real estate office. Anyway, he's working for his daddy. It must be nice to never have to interview for a job and to have everything handed to you. These kids are totally unprepared for real life which Josh has proven. Joe plans to take Kendra to the parking lot where he was born to ask her to court him. The old house they lived in was torn down and is now just a slab next to Cross Church in Springdale. He is all about me here even though Jessa says he's one of the more thoughtful bros. That's a scary thought. Joe says he'll start a new beginning where he first began. That old torn down house was also the site of the molestations. Celebrating where children were sexually abused may not be the best way to start a relationship. After the boring auction, Joe stumbles with telling everyone he wants to stop by at his old home. He certainly isn't the most verbal Duggar. Joe rides with Kendra with James sitting between them. At the old house, which is no longer there, Joe and Jana reminisce about the lot and all their good memories of how they played there as children. They didn't mention the game of hide and seek where one of the girls was molested by Josh. Anyway, the courtship proposal was uncomfortable and weird. Between Joe's stammering and Kendra's giggling and James in the back looking like he had to pee, I had my first laugh of the episode. This was odd and totally Duggarish. More silliness ensues after they get back into the cars. Now that they're courting, James is pushed over to the window seat so Kendra can sit next to Joe. What an accomplishment. Now they can have hip and shoulder sex! During the car ride home they write up their courtship rules. A three second sidehug rule is a godly limit of protection but allowing a man who has molested children to live with children is totally acceptable. I'll never understand the thinking of a Duggar. They can't sidehug for more than three seconds but they can talk about f*cking when they're engaged or married nonstop and all's cool. When they get back to the compound, every fundie in Arkansas is waiting in the Duggars' living room to congratulate them. Jim Bob jokes about the courtship lasting years but we all know he's full of crap. He's just making fun of people who do date for years. You know those people who actually get to know their mate before marriage unlike Jill, Jessa, and Jinger. Jim Bob's underhanded way of mocking people who aren't "godly" like him is obnoxious and not one bit Christian but we all know that Jim Bob lost track of Christ many, many years ago. Probably when he met up with a false prophet named Gothard.

9. This is the Duggars' new car lot which Josh works at and Joe claims to as well. https://www.facebook.com/WholesaleNWA/ I kept it under wraps for quite awhile but now that it's becoming the new big family business I thought I would post the link. Josh's house is like a minute or two drive from this lot. We all knew the location of the other car lots so why not this one. I do NOT want anyone to contact them in any way unless you plan on buying a lemon from them.

Dating courtship and marriage deped

What Does The Bible Say About Dating & Courtship? That kind of people participate in speed dating? It is best to date in group settings or at public events. It is a place where you are accepted for what you are. Are you going in the same direction, and 3. When those issues pop up in a marriage, the solution to get a divorce rises quickly. Polygyny refers to a man being married to more than one woman at the same time. However, most students overestimate the amount of hookups in which their peers engage. It is likely that many Godly men and women will participate in more than one courtship before God leads them to the right life partner.

What does the Bible say about dating / courting? I look back now and I am thankful for my heartbreak, it helped me learn what love is and is not. It happens before the couple becomes engaged or married and is usually meant to describe when a man is attempting to woo a woman, with marriage as the end goal. We must love God more than we love others Matthew 10:37. . The prevalence of one-night stands and non-committal relationships contribute to what sociologists call a hookup culture.

Dating & Courtship How do these pictures apply to you? I had to learn this the hard way. So, over much time, his potential never turns into purpose or due to it taking longer than expected. When taking time to be alone, make sure that your time is spent wisely. They have four children: Bradley, Gracie, Nicholas and Elizabeth; and one dog, Mazer. Your group will be given five 5 minutes to prepare for the presentation. As the friendship deepens, both parties are responsible to be open and honest with each other.

How does courtship work? Therefore, a lengthy courtship should be avoided. I wanted to thank you for this site. Prior to the union of Adam and Eve, God made provision in the Garden for all of their basic needs. What was courtship and marriage like for our distant ancestors? On the contrary, the courtship was successful, because God gave the direction that was sought through it. Courtship however is more serious and reflects more commitment than dating. Where would we be without romance? Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.

A Brief History of Courtship and Dating in America, Part 1 If a teenager's parents do not approve of the relationship, the teen may choose to continue dating the person, but face friction at home if she pushes for the relationship to enter courtship. Without a proper foundation and godly guidance, they can ruin their life forever if they end up getting involved with the wrong person. Furthermore, our commitment to loving God is very crucial and important in our life. Although the termination of a courtship most likely will be painful, damage and hurt—which can lead to bitterness—can be avoided. This answered a couple questions I had; one of which was when exactly to talk to the father, as I'm certainly not opposed to talking to a woman's father, but I was wondering whether it was supposed to be before or after talking to her. While single, both the man and woman are free to concentrate on pleasing the Lord.

Courtship dating marriage Couples who are courting, however, know that they will continue to see one another for a longer period of time. Now we are going discuss the prospect of dating and courtship in the Kingdom of God. The point of courtship is not to find the perfect person. Christian Courtship And Marriage Most of them even have difficulties in approaching other ladies lesbians, and use a companion they are able to live with it is a great time they began dating frequently. Spend quality time with each other 3.

Christian Courtship And Marriage Often fewer than 10 percent and no more than 25—35 percent of men in polygamous cultures have more than one wife; these husbands are often older, wealthy, high-status men Altman and Ginat 1996. Remember the Goals of the Courtship Throughout the courtship, both the man and the woman should diligently seek to find out whether they should be married—whether they can serve and honor God better together than apart. The topics, manner, and frequency of conversations should be characterized by the desire to become acquainted with each other more deeply, but not in a way that is defrauding. I will also talk about dating itself including the origination of the word date , and how it has changed over time. Without God it can be impossible to make the right decisions regarding specifically who you should or should not marry. The ultimate goal of dating or courting is finding a life partner.

Courtship dating marriage Ideally, you should be able to look back at your courtship without shame or fear, confident that you honored God and each other. Systematic research into courtship processes inside the workplace as well two 10-year studies examining norms in different international settings continue to support a view that courtship is a social process that socializes all sexes into accepting forms of relationship that maximize the chances of successfully raising children. It is important to be cautious and safeguard yourself to avoid mistakes that you will regret later on. Be accountable to your authorities. It isn't wrong to feel that way. Take a woman and courtship, here are two people have developed a society's prescribed method of the bible. Failure to safeguard your affections can result in disaster.

Dating & Courtship Our parent's approved, but after both of us went through failed courtships that left us emotionally disheveled, they decided to trust us and let us seek God together and individually as to how we would like to conduct our relationship. It is just a casual time getting together. Courtship reveals that you have found the one whom you want to spend the rest of your life with and you are making practical life steps to get married to that person in the future. Because courtship, during the traditional dating, as difficult as a successful marriage marriage partner. Does a woman foster love and respect as a loving submitted wife? Or are you a woman who is trying to be a more excellent person? My story is long but I'll try to make it short. This will matter when it comes to many things in the home. Where dating typically leads to isolation and unresolved issues, due to the lack of accountability.

The Difference Between Courtship & Dating Trying to kick against the principles contained in the information above, may land someone in darkness and gloom. Dating multiple people over many years creates numerous unsolves issues. Courtship strives to answer the question, How can I honor God and discern His direction regarding my life partner? Not all apply to every person's situation. Even though the process of courtship is more serious, it is by no means a time to settle for less than what God has for a person. Because each individual, family, and set of circumstances is unique, each courtship will be unique. The couple is exclusive and monogamous. A Biblical courtship will bring honor to the Lord and will contribute to the prosperity of a lifelong covenant marriage relationship.
