Bennett: I’m not ordering you not to think something! But don’t say it! It’s rude. And slanderous. And wrong! I had a very happy, very traditional marriage!
Cybele: You did?
Bennett: . . . okay, no, I had a terrible angry wreck of a marriage. But the “very traditional” part was true!
Besides, it only went wrong because — If it hadn’t been for — Things would have gotten better! After the baby was born.
Cybele: Is that how it usually works?
Bennett: I — I want you to stop talking now.
You’re going to write something instead? You know all I have to do is not read it, right?
. . . Let me see.
(sniff)
(scribble)
Bennett: Okay, okay, you can say it out loud! Just don’t cry!
Cybele: Thanks, boss! You’re the best ♥
Wow, he’s so deep in the closet, he can buy real estate in Narnia.
Welp, turns out I was wrong about my prediction yesterday. Wonderfully, beautifully wrong. *dances*
and yes, he is so far in the closet Aslan comes by for coffee in the morning.
Well, to be fair, angry wrecks of a marriage are highly traditional.
XD
I love that he revoked the order because she was trying so hard. Bennett is trying so hard, but he just can’t be a jerk to her.
Crossing my fingers that we’re not being pulled a fast one. ^^;;
I fear the day Bennett takes a level in badass.
Our marriage would have gotten away with it, if it hadn’t been for those meddling kids!
