They very much do. Tradition is, quite often, best left behind. It is only loved because it is known.

In fact, I rather enjoy not getting along with Briar every so often. That is half of the fun of it.

Wisely said. I think respecting and knowing where these traditions come from is important, but change is the only way forward. [...] That, and anything that has cast them out like they did, can burn.

You two are cute.

Things are meant to grow and change. [...] And we are meant to be more than our parents made of us. Especially when one has been treated in the manner that they were.

On occasion, yes.

[...] Is everything ok?

In what manner?

I would like to say yes, but I am not certain which part I am referring to.

Between you and Briar. Not that it's my business or that you have to share anything at all.

Oh! No, we are quite fine. Just not always cute.

It is semantics. The kind of thing that I am, I am obligated to be truthful in speech.

Oh, I hadn't realized you were actually bound to that. Does that become frustrating?

It will only become more apparent the more we drink. So it is best to be clear about it now.

Yes, it is quite often frustrating. The sort of hoops one must go through to respond sarcastically? Ridiculous.

Just means you're far more creative than the rest of us. I, on the other hand, have to actively try not to be sarcastic. People don't use your inability to lie against you, do they?

I'm glad that you and Briar found each other. It's clear as anything how much you two love each other. It's nice.

I have had a great deal of time to practice, is all. And I like how you talk. You use your words well. […] People do not take advantage so much anymore. I am careful with what I say.

I am fortunate to have him. He makes me better far more than he infuriates me. Though he does very much do both.

Thank you, I mostly hear you talk too much, but I like how you talk as well. I wouldn't doubt your ability to make someone regret their life if it came down to it.

I think it's the Hemming gift.

It is only talking too much if you have nothing to say! And I certainly have some stories for you.

They do seem uniquely suited to it, do they not?

Oh I bet, I fucking love a good story.

They're neck and neck for the damn award. [...] But I'm glad this...probably dangerous, fucked up little Billionaire vanity project brought ~~me to~~ us all together.

[...] Does Briar tell you everything?

Yes. It has been good, for all that it is […] exceedingly strange. A shift, but I think it is for the better.

Most things, yes. Is there something you need to know?

I hope so.

~~Did he te~~ My No. I remember being married and what that meant about secret information...I was just curious.

At the very least, meeting you is for the better.

Oh, other people’s secrets are different. Those are only given when it is permitted. Or when it is not expressly forbidden.

I feel the same about you. I've never found a partner in crime so easily.

Right [...] good to know. [...] Not that I think Briar would share things he was asked not to, but. Anyway, thank you.

I think we will do wonderful things together.

You do not need to worry. Your secrets are your own. I would not lie to you. It is quite literally impossible. Except for last Thursday.

Does this mean you went on a lying spree?

Yes! It was very fun!

What was your worst lie?

I was not terribly good at it.

But any time Briar asked me if I could do something, I was able to say no. Even I was already doing it.

Well that's just fucking cute. You have him wrapped around your finger don't you?

He may pretend otherwise if it makes him happy.
