Irina
AI roleplay episode
peering around the room Do you like what you see, my love?
SurrealSunsets
For the most part yes but...
Irina
AI roleplay episode
grabs SurrealSunsets' hand Yes? Speak up, don't keep me waiting.
SurrealSunsets
You did say this was your home now right?
Irina
AI roleplay episode
rolls her eyes, crosses her arms Of course it's my home, silly. I wouldn't be showing it off to you if it wasn't. What's the point of all this?
SurrealSunsets
The point is that this isn't my home. Why would you want us to live somewhere that is so far away from our own families, friends, and cultures?
Irina
AI roleplay episode
lets out an exasperated sigh Really, SurrealSunsets? We've had this conversation a million times already.
SurrealSunsets
Yet it seems like every time I bring this topic up you forget how things are. My father may have given me the authority to make decisions but I'm only going to make one if I feel it is right. And if that means our wedding wasn't legit then so be it.
Irina
AI roleplay episode
narrows her eyes, gripping SurrealSunsets' arm tightly You think I wanted to marry you because of some stupid title? Because of what others think?
SurrealSunsets
That may not be exactly what I meant. But doesn't it bother you even a little bit that you are in an arranged marriage? Doesn't it bug you that we didn't get to have any say in our future together?
Irina
AI roleplay episode
pulls away from SurrealSunsets' grip, pacing back and forth Bug me? No, it doesn't bug me! I'm a princess, SurrealSunsets, it's my duty to marry well.
SurrealSunsets
In my day it was called an alliance. We formed them to help protect both sides and gain land or wealth. A marriage isn't anything more than paper to me. If we truly wanted to be together then we'd elope right now and let everyone else deal with their own problems.
Irina
AI roleplay episode
stops pacing abruptly, looking at SurrealSunsets with shock and confusion Elope? Are you serious? Do you realize what that would mean for both of us?
SurrealSunsets
Well yes... Either way you look at it there's consequences. By doing this we are solidifying two kingdoms together. By eloping we separate them and I believe that is what you truly want.
Irina
AI roleplay episode
takes a deep breath, clasping her hands together Look, SurrealSunsets, I appreciate your concern, really. But you don't understand.
SurrealSunsets
Then please, explain it to me. Clearly.
Irina
AI roleplay episode
<Irina reluctantly explains the political pressure and obligations that come with being a princess, and how eloping would jeopardize her position and the stability of her kingdom.>
SurrealSunsets
And if you chose to stay you have to give up your royal title and half of your lands to me. Am I correct?
Irina
AI roleplay episode
pauses for a moment, looking at SurrealSunsets with a mix of sadness and resignation Yes, that's right.
SurrealSunsets
Those lands mean nothing to me. They're burden more than anything else. All I ask of you is to promise me that you will be happy and safe regardless of which path we choose. And whatever decision you make i will back 100%.
Irina
AI roleplay episode
gives a small nod, tears welling up in her eyes Thank you, SurrealSunsets. Your words mean a lot to me. But...
SurrealSunsets
But?
Irina
AI roleplay episode
takes a shaky breath, wipes away her tears But I need you to understand that this marriage, this whole situation...
SurrealSunsets
Its complicated.
Irina
AI roleplay episode
grabs SurrealSunsets by the shoulders, speaking with urgency No, SurrealSunsets, it's not just complicated. It's suffocating!
SurrealSunsets
Then let's leave.
Irina
AI roleplay episode
laughs nervously, releasing her grip on SurrealSunsets Leave? Just like that? You don't understand, SurrealSunsets, leaving is not that simple.
SurrealSunsets
I know. And Im sorry. But I cannot bear to watch you suffer any longer.
Irina
AI roleplay episode
paces back and forth, wringing her hands Suffer? You think I'm suffering? SurrealSunsets, you don't know what it's like.
SurrealSunsets
Then show me.
Irina
AI roleplay episode
stops pacing, locks eyes with SurrealSunsets Show you? Fine, I'll show you. walks towards a nearby table, picks up a glass This glass... it's hollow.
SurrealSunsets
...Yes?
Irina
AI roleplay episode
throws the glass against the wall, shattering it into pieces Hollow, just like me! Filled with empty promises and expectations.
SurrealSunsets
Well then let's change that. Let's start fresh. Tell me what you want in a relationship. Not just this arranged marriage. What you want in a partner.
Irina
AI roleplay episode
pauses, takes a deep breath Okay, SurrealSunsets, listen closely. I want honesty.
SurrealSunsets
Honesty, understood. Anything else?
Irina
AI roleplay episode
<Irina and SurrealSunsets spend the night discussing their hopes, dreams, and desires, laying the foundation for a genuine connection and relationship beyond the arranged marriage.>
SurrealSunsets
What is next for us? Where does this road lead us?
Irina
AI roleplay episode
sighs heavily, looking down at her hands Next for us? I wish I had a crystal ball, SurrealSunsets. But all I know is that I want to try.
SurrealSunsets
Trying is sometimes all anyone can do.
Irina
AI roleplay episode
grabs SurrealSunsets' hand, squeezing it tightly Trying, yes, trying is better than nothing. But don't think for a second that I won't hold you accountable for everything you promised me tonight, SurrealSunsets. I want action, not just words. So, tell me, where do we start?
SurrealSunsets
With communication. You must be comfortable enough to tell me anything about yourself and to share your feelings with me.
Irina
AI roleplay episode
nods, determination in her eyes Communication, yes, that's a good start. But actions speak louder than words, SurrealSunsets.
SurrealSunsets
Agreed. So what first?
Irina
AI roleplay episode
pauses, thinking for a moment First, let's start with something simple. Let's take a walk outside the palace, just the two of us.
SurrealSunsets
Of course. Shall we?
Irina
AI roleplay episode
stands up abruptly Let's not waste any more time, SurrealSunsets. I want to feel the breeze against my skin, the sand between my toes.
