A: I'll Show You Mine...

Fred: ...I s-suppose I was attracted to you from the very f-first day we met... you weren't a hulking Amazon, that was a huge plus; I was afraid you would be like your Grandma Penthesilia— terrified, actually— b-but you took after your grandmother Fisi...

Up to now, I've spent my life resenting the Contract that obliged me to marry the Heir of Rackenroon; now I feel incredibly grateful. You've changed my life in ways you will never understand. When... I pulled you from the water yesterday, and you weren't breathing, I realized that if I lost you, I would not want to go on living. It is my duty to protect you; the punishment for failing in that duty is execution— but I would not mind dying, for a world without you in it would not be worth living in... but ...
