Austentacious119: Did you tell The Girl yet?

Leggolas1012: No. And I’m not going to. So you can stop asking. Lol.

Austentacious119: C’mon, Leggs! She could be your Lizzie Bennet.

Leggolas1012: Lizzie who almost ruins her own happiness with snap judgments?

Austentacious119: Fine. Your Emma Woodhouse then.

Leggolas1012: Emma who is meddlesome, arrogant, and thinks she knows what’s best for everyone but can’t figure her own self out?

Austentacious119: Katniss Everdeen?

Leggolas1012: Drugged out, so emotionally dead by the end that she can’teven choose a guy?

Austentacious119: Scarlett O’Hara.

Leggolas1012: Selfish, manipulative, cruel, immature…

Austentacious119: Nevermind. You deserve to be alone.

Leggolas1012: Are we ready to start writing now?

Austentacious119: Seriously, why not tell her though?

Leggolas1012: *sighs* You’re not going to let this go, are you?

Austentacious119: He’s a genius.

Leggolas1012: I never should’ve told you.

Austentacious119: Of course you should. You obviously need a cheerleader in your corner. You’ve been in love with The Girl for nine years and never done anything about it?

Leggolas1012: Because she’d say no.

Austentacious119: How do you know if you’ve never tried?

Leggolas1012: Because she has a boyfriend.

Austentacious119: Minor details.

Austentacious119: Maybe if she knew you were an option…

Leggolas1012: She’d still say no.

Austentacious119: How do you know?

Leggolas1012: I just do.

Austentacious119: But you can’t know, not truly. You just have to shoot your shot.

Leggolas1012: You know who needs to shoot their shot?

Austentacious119: Who?!
