I understand you take sadistic pleasure from hearing about my every failed foray into romantic overtures. On multiple occasions, you have called me naive, and uptight, and surely you must have found it a hoot and a half. And for many years, [ and perhaps against his better judgement ] I have both trusted your advice and allowed you to keep stringing me along.
But you cannot seriously expect that, at this point in life, I would still fall for such a blatant attempt at tricking me! First of all, I know very well that blades are seen as tools of destiny in Faerghus, and more importantly, proposals are made with rings!
[ He knows his stuff! Also don't call him cute, he's not ten anymore! Foot stomp!! ]
Come on, your majesty! I've only ever tried to help you. The advice works for ME! [Sort of. In the way that stepping out in front of traffic works if you want to be hit by a car.]
I've never set you up for failure, your majesty. Sure, sometimes the situations you manage to get yourself into are pretty funny but it's because they were never my intention that they're so amusing. I guess I'm just terrible at giving advice...
Regardless! I'm not trying to trick you! Ask anyone. Ask Felix or Ingrid. Or, I guess, just Felix. Tools of destiny, exactly!, and when given to someone you care about are almost the same as an engagement ring. You're basically saying you wish your destiny and theirs would intertwine. Get it?
