why should i marry you? 💍 meme

Imagine, if you will, a world where you must convince someone to marry your character. What do they bring to the hypothetical table that is sure to win all comers?

That world is this world. It's this meme. You have one shot to marry off your character. ONE subject line. The rest of their life depends on it. Their life depends on it!

(Am I implying they'll die if they don't get someone to marry them? Well. I'm not-not saying a painful end will come their way...

Don't hold me to anything. Just plead a case! You don't have time to worry about the specifics, do you?)

how to play:
- What it says.
- Why should ANYONE marry your character?
- Put it. Go ooooon. Put it.
- So. Volunteers? Anyone out there?

read your mind?

I do so love poetry, especially when it is shared in bed.

[ A cant of his head. ]

So that it might keep you company in your sweet dreams, my lady?

That does sound lovely. Honeyed words in my ear to shepherd me into sweeter dreams. Have you the divine inspiration to author these poems yourself?

Do I hold such a countenance? [ He knew a woman, once, who cherished her sweetest dreams. Thinking of her brings a lightness to his lips. ]

[ The remembrance of his wife brings his smile. Nothing more. Not this woman, however her familiarity lifts his silent heart. ] I pray it won’t upset you to learn that I’ve no superior talent except memorizing the wealth from others’ pens.

Not upset in the slightest; We all have different strengths. Appreciation and curation of this art is just as noble. And for you to associate them with your beloved would be just as romantic.

( .. and choosing 'you' would land you the dedication of a girl who, despite her innate biology modeling her as delicacy among prey, used that status and stubbornly built herself up to be a hunter instead. )
