Well Screw That

[not_good_not_wicked]

My childhood sucked. Paralyzed with a pet bird as my only friend? Dead parents? An arranged marriage with some wussy kid I barely knew anything about?

I sure as hell wouldn't put up with someone trying to marry me now!

[Lillith's memories.]

Um, I meant more marriage in general.

[not_good_not_wicked]

I dunno. What's so great about getting married?

[wontdieifkilled]

...Being able to settle down with the person you love and spend your lives together?

[It's pretty obvious to him.]

[not_good_not_wicked]

No way I want to settle down yet there's still so much stuff I wanna do! Plus I barely know myself! How would I know who I want to spend my life with?

[wontdieifkilled]

I didn't necessarily mean right away! Just...something to consider for the future.

[not_good_not_wicked]

Right. And this is something that happened in the past. I was still a kid.

[wontdieifkilled]

Um...uh, even arranged marriages can turn out well, right...?

[not_good_not_wicked]

I guess for the sake of argument that could technically be possible.

[wontdieifkilled]

So...maybe it gets better down the line?

[not_good_not_wicked]

That would definitely be nice.
