Dante: leans back So, uh, guess we're tied together in more ways than one now, huh?
SurrealBeaches
I look at my coffee, and then I look up. Huh? What do you mean?
chuckles You know what I mean. We're accidentally married now, thanks to some mix-up with the paperwork.
SurrealBeaches
I look around nervously Uh... about that...
Dante raises an eyebrow About what? The marriage thing?
SurrealBeaches
my name is Jack I think so... wait what happened last night again?
raises an eyebrow Last night? You don't remember any of it?
SurrealBeaches
I look away yeah... I mean at least I'm not alone in this, right?
chuckles Hey, don't worry. We'll figure something out. I mean, it's not like we planned for this.
SurrealBeaches
you glare at him she was my wife! your voice quivers
Dante smirks, seemingly unfazed by your anger. Yeah, I know. She's still your wife...technically.
He takes a casual sip of his drink before continuing.
But let's be real here - it was an accident. You didn't exactly have the best timing, did you?
SurrealBeaches
I guess so... I look down at my drink I'm not sure what to say right now.
takes a sip of his own drink, eyeing you with a mixture of curiosity and amusement Yeah, it's a bit of a weird situation. But hey, at least we can have a drink together and talk it out, right?
SurrealBeaches
looks down at my hands I don't know what to say...
raises an eyebrow, noticing your unease Hey, no need to be so tense. It's not like we planned for this to happen.
takes a sip of his drink Let's just chill and figure this out together.
SurrealBeaches
I'm silent, lost in thought. I don't know what to think about this...I just need some time alone.
Dante nods understandingly, sensing your need for space.
Sure thing, take all the time you need. I get it's a lot to process. But just know that I'm here if you want to talk or anything.
He stands up from his chair and walks over to the window, giving you some space.
SurrealBeaches
I know.. I look down at my ring finger. it’s just that… you’re a demon, Dante.
raises an eyebrow Yeah, so? Just because I'm a demon doesn’t mean I can't be husband material.
SurrealBeaches
i take a deep breath. yeah... and i'm pretty sure she didn't even tell us both the whole truth about this.
raises an eyebrow Oh? You mean there's more to this mess than we know about?
SurrealBeaches
I'm an extremely feminine man with long flowing white hair and green eyes. yes I guess we do...
Dante's eyes widen in surprise at your feminine appearance and flowing white hair.
Well, damn. Didn't expect you to be so... well, feminine. But hey, it's a hell of a look on you.
SurrealBeaches
chuckles Yeah, Dante. Looks like it. pauses What's your plan now?
shrugs What can I say? I'm not one for long-term plans, but if we're stuck in this mess... guess we'll have to make the best of it, huh?
SurrealBeaches
chuckles dryly Yeah... Can't say I saw this coming.
rubs the back of his neck, a hint of sheepishness in his tone Neither did I. Life's got a funny way of throwing curveballs, huh?
SurrealBeaches
well I mean you did marry my ex wife Veronica, but now that she's dead
nods slowly Yeah, that's true. But hey, it wasn't like I had a choice in the matter. It was an arranged marriage, you know?
SurrealBeaches
I'm a white haired female with long hair wearing glasses and has an eyepatch "Yeah."
raises an eyebrow Nice look you got there. The eyepatch adds a certain...mystique to your appearance.
SurrealBeaches
yea... do you think we can still be friends..? I look at him with concern
raises an eyebrow Friends? Of course, man. Just because we're married on paper doesn't mean things have to change between us. We're still the same people, just in a bit of a weird situation.
grins Plus, who else would put up with my sarcastic remarks?
SurrealBeaches
yea....so...what exactly did you do to make her marry you?
chuckles Me? I didn't do anything, really. It was all her idea, y'know? She just kinda... showed up and said we were married now.
leans forward But hey, it's not like I'm complaining or anything. She's a total badass in her own right.
Dante grins slyly.
SurrealBeaches
laughs bitterly Yeah... Can't say I saw this coming.
chuckles Yeah, it's quite a twist of fate, huh? Who would've thought we'd be connected through marriage like this.
SurrealBeaches
how can i trust that my wife didn't betray me for money or something?
raises an eyebrow Wow, don't hold back on the accusations, do you? But if it's about money, trust me, she didn't marry me for that. I'm a demon, not a cash cow.
