Fine
She did try to sell me her soul, so technically, I collected payment
Liv
In the form of abduction
Me
In the form of payment collection
Liv
IT'S ABDUCTION
Me
This argument is pointless
Liv
What are you going to do now that you’ve stolen her? You know she's not just going to fall in love with you because you force her to mate with you, right? This isn't Beauty and the Beast
Me
Love isn't part of this
You're aware of that
Liv
I'm aware you believe that
Me
Her presence suppresses my magic’s cost. I waited until she was old enough that I wouldn’t fuck up her magic as it settled, and now she's going to stay near me at all times. It's simple.
Liv
Sure it is
Me
You're aggravating
Love is pointless
Liv
You've said that at least a few hundred times at this point
I don't think she's going to be as amenable to your plan as you think, but that's your problem
Me
I'll handle it
Thank you for bringing her here. I don't think I could've kept my shit together through all of that on my own.
