Question about how we wanna play this re: Marriage, elf sex

[crantz]

Theo: at least you didn't lead me on to the point we got married, Fingon
Fingon: Yeah really
Fingon: How ARE we working elf marriages here?
Fingon: I mean like...*looks at John*
Fingon: Cause I sort of feel bad because technically I DID marry Theo

The discussion then veered to precedent via Celegorm and Ecthelion very much not being married. How do we wanna work with canon/what we've done?

ALSO, the userinfo does say that we prefer no rape plots, but it reminds me of how Tolkien said that rape=death for elfs, do we wanna keep that in?

True, the Eldar. Technically it does not even apply to the Avarin elves! :)

So unless Theo has turned into an Elf while having sex, they can't be married, can they?

[crantz]

Oh yeah, Theo's marriage status is safe on account of being a human.

So if the Elves don't say their vows and call upon Eru as witness, they are not married.
