[ Confessions of love are the things an idol hears more than anything. Eventually, they become white noise - really, that's all they were in the first place. The words are meaningless, the feelings behind them worth even less.
But this is different. It's real. It's true. The words neither of them have ever been able to say, bitter curses spat out and softening into the loveliest words of love she's ever heard in her life. ]
I was waiting too. My whole life, all I wanted was for someone to know what I really am and say that anyway. Even though I'm dirty and hopeless and all the rest - I just wanted someone to love me anyway. I thought I needed a wish for it, but- but you were the one. Before we ever had the Grail.
[ Her laughter and tears come out in tandem, hiccuping sobs that shake her whole body as she clings to him. ]
Stay with me forever. That's all I want. You're all I want.
[ With those words, she pulls back - just enough so she can look him in the face and see him again, properly, with these eyes of hers. Oberon, Vortigern, Faerie King and wrym - she looks at him and smiles, radiant and warm. She wants to see him, properly, when she calls him what he really is. ]
I love you. More than anything. All this time, you were the one I was waiting to love. My darling husband.
[ She's a newly wedded bride, isn't she? So it's only natural that she seals those words with a kiss. ]
