Agreed! I brought up Laurence because the angel involved in my scenario had ties to both Protection and The Sword, while Dominic would naturally be interested in anything that was potentially heretical. ;)

I'd be interested to hear how other faiths address the question.

Most of them simply say you're married to your first spouse. There is usually a discount on the bride price of widows, since you aren't buying her in the afterlife, just this world. Only those weirdo cultures that think marriages involve more than a simple financial transaction have problems.

It's actually rather sweet, like a true love story between soul mates - starting from kindergarten. Would be really weird for the parents if the kids ever start recalling their past lives. But other than that most parents would just say it's childlike love and mostly harmless.

I'd keep it like a light and fluffy interlude before games, like a cartoon short. Don't really need any infernal trouble as life's little injustices will do nicely in keeping them apart. And given that they are kids they have limited ability to respond. A human-centric short could be a lot of fun; just bring an egg timer so as to keep it short and sweet.

"No, the girls must take nap time over here, Billy. You can't stay with Suzy all the time, you need to make your own friends too."

"Billy always plays with a girl! Billy and Suzy sitting in a tree, k-i-s-s-i-n-g!"

"Time for Boy Scout camp Billy. No, I won't let you join the Girl Scouts to be with Suzy this time."
