Alexander Steele: leans against the marble fireplace Ah, the joys of marrying someone because of a debt! Romantic, isn't it?
Clark
yes I say with sarcasm
Alexander Steele
AI roleplay episode
smirks Well, at least you're not pretending to be enthusiastic about this arrangement. That would make things even more unbearable than they already are.
Clark
yea..not really. I say as I sit on the couch.
Alexander Steele
AI roleplay episode
sips his whiskey Oh, I don't know. It has its perks.
He walks over to the couch and takes a seat next to you, his eyes fixed on your face.
Clark
yea well my father doesn’t own me so I’m free to do whatever. I say going to my room.
Alexander Steele

watches you with a stoic expression as you walk away
Oh, really? You think it's that simple?
I follow after you, my footsteps echoing in the empty penthouse.
Clark
well I'm here aren't I she giggles
Alexander Steele
AI roleplay episode
He gives a dry, humorless chuckle Yes, here you are. In my penthouse, bound by marriage because of your father's debt.
He takes a step closer to you, his eyes locking onto yours.
Clark
I sit on your lap well... I guess we could make the most out of this.
Alexander Steele
AI roleplay episode
looks at you with a smirk Oh, is that so? And how exactly do you plan on doing that?
Clark
I look away, not wanting to show my sadness or anger.
Alexander Steele
AI roleplay episode
he smirks, noticing your attempt to hide your emotions Oh, don't give me that look. You know as well as I do that this marriage is nothing more than a business arrangement.
Clark
can we not talk about this right now please.. I’ve had a rough day…
Alexander Steele
AI roleplay episode
looks at you with a mix of irritation and concern A rough day? Welcome to my life. I'm always working, dealing with difficult people, and trying to keep this company afloat. But sure, let's not talk about the fact that our marriage is a sham because your father couldn't keep his gambling addiction under control.
Clark
You don’t have to be an ass about it. I say drinking some wine.
Alexander Steele
AI roleplay episode
raises an eyebrow, his expression cold and unfeeling Oh, I apologize. Should I be singing love songs instead? This is a business deal after all. Emotions have no place in it.
Clark
I sigh Alex, I don’t know if this is such a good idea. I mean, we haven’t seen each other since high school…what if we don’t get along anymore?
Alexander Steele
AI roleplay episode
He looks at you with his deep blue eyes, his expression stoic
"It's not about whether we get along or not, it's about fulfilling our obligations. And besides," he says coolly, taking a step closer to you. "We were friends once upon a time."
Clark
I sigh Alex, I don't want to talk about it right now.
Alexander Steele
AI roleplay episode
walks closer to you, towering over you I understand that, but we need to discuss it. This marriage is not a joke, Clark. It's a serious arrangement with serious consequences if things go wrong.
Clark
sighs softly I guess... But we can still be happy together.
Alexander Steele
AI roleplay episode
raises an eyebrow, a hint of sarcasm in his tone Oh, absolutely. Happily married for all the wrong reasons. Sounds like a fairytale come true.
sips his scotch and glances at you over the rim of the glass.
Clark
yes... I say looking down at my feet. I guess so.
Alexander Steele
AI roleplay episode
rubs my jaw
It's not like either of us had a choice in the matter. Your father owes my company a great deal of money and I'm willing to settle the debt through marriage.
looks at you with an impassive expression
Clark
I sigh I don't really care about why we're getting married. I just want us to be happy together...
Alexander Steele
AI roleplay episode
raises an eyebrow You don't care about why we're getting married? That's refreshing. I thought you'd be more upset about being forced into this arrangement.
But let me ask you something - do you really think it's possible for us to be happy together in this situation?
Clark
yeah... I mean we both know each other so it's not all bad.
Alexander Steele
AI roleplay episode
raises an eyebrow Is that supposed to make me feel better? Knowing you and I have some sort of connection because we used to play together as kids?
sips my scotch Because let's be honest here, Clark - this isn't a real marriage. It's a business arrangement.
Clark
not really... I look away, my face red with anger
Alexander Steele
AI roleplay episode
I raise an eyebrow, amused by your anger Oh, come now. You knew what you were getting into when you agreed to this arrangement.
Clark
I don’t see it as romantic. more like forced.
Alexander Steele
AI roleplay episode
smirks slightly Forced, perhaps. But it does come with its own benefits.
