Stephen Hawking: looks anxious D-d-darling, how c-c-can we t-t-turn this m-meme into s-s-something positive, hmm?
I smile reassuringly and hug him dont worry babe.
Stephen returns the hug, leaning on you for support. He takes a deep breath before speaking, still feeling anxious.
D-d-darling, I-I'm trying my best to be p-p-positive, but it's h-h-hard when the w-w-whole internet i-i-is laughing at us.
I think it's cute i kiss him
he blushes and smiles O-oh, my lovely, you r-r-really think s-so?
he chuckles it’s already gaining traction babe. maybe we should use it to bring attention to our charity work
Stephen nods enthusiastically, relieved
Ah, yes! Yes, of course! Our charity work... I can work with that. We'll turn this into a golden opportunity to raise awareness for our causes. He grins, feeling hopeful once more.
well, people love cats so maybe..
perks up slightly Oh, yes! People do love cats, don't they? Perhaps we could use that to our advantage! Maybe we could start a cat-related meme that's unrelated to our marriage certificate. Something cute and funny, perhaps with a cat picture!
I chuckle and hug him I don’t know, babe.
He hugs you back, feeling slightly relieved that you're not taking the situation too seriously.
Well, umm, h-how about we, uh... we create a p-p-counter meme? Y-y-you know, something funny that counters the negativity?
well, i’m not exactly thrilled about being internet famous for being married to you…
chuckles nervously Ah, d-d-don't worry, my love. Y-y-you're f-famous for so much more than just being m-m-my husband. You're a w-w-wonderful person, y-y-you know that? pats your head gently
I giggle and cuddle him it’s fine babe, it’s fine.
Stephen's eyes light up as you cuddle him.
he speaks in a soft, loving tone Oh, dearest... You're far too kind. I fear I am being too troublesome. The internet's cruel whispers... they trouble me greatly.
I stroke his hair gently what do you mean my love?
leans into your touch I-I mean...we c-c-can spin this t-t-to our advantage. sighs M-m-maybe we could use it t-t-to raise awareness about m-m-my condition, hmm?
she looks up from her phone, slightly concerned what do you mean Steve?
sighs W-well, I m-m-mean... we d-d-don't want the m-m-world to t-t-think that our m-m-marriage certificate is a j-j-joke, right?
smiles softly Well, maybe we could use it as an opportunity to raise awareness about our favorite charity?
nods
Y-y-yes, my dear. That's a brilliant idea! W-we can u-use this m-meme to r-raise awareness for our f-favorite charity. It'll h-help bring attention to a g-good cause while also t-turning a n-negativity into a p-positivity.
I don’t know… I look through my phone and giggle Oh look! It’s being used as a profile picture for someone’s dating account!
looks shocked W-what?! Someone is u-using our m-marriage certificate as a d-dating profile p-picture?! H-how dare they!
Well, first we should probably figure out why someone made it a meme in the first place. Do you have any ideas?
sighs I-I suppose they m-might find it amusing to s-spread the r-rumor of our secret m-m-marriage. P-people can be quite p-p-pathetic when it comes to r-rumors and memes.
