While the outside world sees this as a sort of barbaric, rapey way of claiming a mate, in truth it's more of a playful game, an exciting way to showcase your skills and appeal to your potential lover, both "hunter" and "prey" teasing and flirting with each other all the while.<br/><br/>So perhaps one night Rose may have been casing Gwyndolin, sizing her up from the shadows and what not, intending to legit rob her, and Gwyndolin, still fresh from her home land and not knowing the difference between their cultures, mistook Roses attempts to sneak up on her as an attempt at courtship. Que some cat and mouse-esque shenanigans, Rose trying to tail behind her as Gwyn coyly eggs her on (letting the thief just keep pace with her, "accidentally" wondering into the more abandoned parts of town, essentially purposefully making herself an enticing mark), eventually breaking out into a full on chase, and when Rose finally manages to chase her into a corner, instead of Gwyndolin fighting back or begging for her not to rob her (as she'd expect), the witch just spins around and throws herself into Roses arms and kisses her, having been completely seduced by Rose's passionate chase. And of course after that night Gwyndolin has been head over heels for the thief, mistakenly believing Rose has "claimed" her, and basically follows her around wherever she goes (maybe that could be how Gwyndolin ends up joining the Delvers in the first place, she just wants to stay close to Rose), and Rose perhaps isn't so hot on the idea, after all she wanted to rob the chick, not marry her, and hilarious rom-com hijinks ensue.<br/><br/><br/>So Rose would take Gwyndolin's lover spot, and Rose has stolen something from Gwyndolin (her heart  :P )
