Alex: Fidgeting with the marriage certificate Dude, I can't believe I did this! Married in Vegas, seriously?!
SkyVintage
sighs how did it go?
Blushes, looks down at the certificate Well, it was...a wild ride, man. The ceremony was this crazy over-the-top affair. And now I'm officially hitched to...
SkyVintage
well since you already married into her family, her name is?
Gulps nervously It's...it's Olivia. Olivia Johnson. Looks around anxiously Yeah, Olivia Johnson. Sounds legit, right?
SkyVintage
hell yeah. Sounds legit
Starts pacing back and forth But seriously, SkyVintage, do you think she'll actually go through with it? I mean, marriage is a big deal, right?
SkyVintage
Listen, if she wanted to play games, she wouldn’t have put the ring on. It’s a big deal, so don’t screw it up.
Stops pacing abruptly, determined You're right, SkyVintage. This is a big deal. I'm gonna make this work, no matter what.
SkyVintage
so tell me more about her?
Eyes light up with excitement Well, Olivia is amazing, man! She's got this incredible energy and she's so passionate about art.
SkyVintage
sounds cool
Grinning widely Yeah, she's like this creative firecracker! Always talking about her latest art project or some new gallery opening.
SkyVintage
damn that’s awesome
Laughs nervously But here's the thing, SkyVintage. I've never been very artistic myself.
SkyVintage
oh…
Grabs SkyVintage's arm, pleadingly Oh come on, don't say it like that! I want to support her, but I'm worried...worried that she'll think I'm boring.
SkyVintage
No, man. She shouldn’t expect you to be something you’re not. Don’t feel bad
Alex attempts to impress Olivia by attempting to draw a piece of art, but ends up creating something that looks more like a kindergarteners messy drawing of a cat
SkyVintage
laughs Hah! Good effort, Alex! That's... quite the... unique... drawing.
Looks at the drawing with a mix of embarrassment and determination SkyVintage, I know I'm not an artist, but I don't want to disappoint Olivia.
SkyVintage
bro, just be honest with her
Takes a deep breath, nods You're right, SkyVintage. I need to be honest with Olivia. Looks at the drawing again, then crumples it up and throws it away
SkyVintage
watches it fall into the trash bin
Looks down at the empty trash bin, determination in his eyes You know what, SkyVintage? I'll make it up to Olivia by showing her how good I am at other things.
SkyVintage
i love that determination
Smiling confidently You heard that, Olivia! I may not be an artistic genius, but I'm the master of making delicious meals and kicking ass at chess.
SkyVintage
hell yeah!
Grinning Now let's see that fiery energy of yours in the kitchen, Alex! Time to show Olivia what you're made of!
SkyVintage
pats his shoulder
Rushes towards the kitchen, grabbing ingredients and utensils Alright, SkyVintage, time to get cooking!
SkyVintage
alright, but don’t burn the house down
Frantically chopping vegetables and stirring pots Don't worry, SkyVintage, I've got this under control! Just a little bit of flair...and a dash of love!
SkyVintage
no way! And you said you weren’t good at being a husband?
Looks over at SkyVintage with a mischievous grin Well, SkyVintage, who knows? Maybe there's more to being a husband than just cooking and playing chess.
SkyVintage
hahaha
Looks thoughtful for a moment, then smirks You know, SkyVintage, maybe I should show Olivia some of my secret talents.
SkyVintage
oh? Like what?
Raises an eyebrow with a mischievous twinkle in his eyes Oh, you'll have to wait and see, SkyVintage. It's a surprise that will blow her mind!
SkyVintage
I wanna know!
Winks at SkyVintage Alright, alright, I'll give you a hint. It involves...a deck of cards and a trick I've been working on for months.
SkyVintage
sound interesting
Excitedly grabs a deck of cards from the counter Okay, SkyVintage, watch closely. This is gonna blow Olivia's mind!
SkyVintage
alright!
Starts shuffling the deck of cards with lightning speed, his hands moving deftly Alright, SkyVintage, keep your eyes peeled.
SkyVintage
not sure what to make of this
After revealing his card trick, Alex accidentally knocks over a glass of water, breaking it and cutting his hand.
SkyVintage
oh no! Are you okay!?
Quickly wipes the blood away with a paper towel, trying to hide his pain It's nothing, SkyVintage, just a small scratch.
