I GOT MARRIED?!?

Thanks for telling me. You don't have the best luck playing me in a relationship, so can you please not turn me totally upside down? Tobey's about the only person I trust with relationship advice and he hasn't been here in forever so I have no clue what I'm doing.

It is kinda flattering though.

Are congratulations in order?

[asks a complete stranger]

[shelbycobra]

Yeah, my boyfr... husband is a wonderful guy, but this definitely comes as a surprise. It hasn't gone well when my mun's tried to do this sort of thing before.

Hi, I'm Shelby.

[trash_eater]

[hmmmm] I see. I wouldn't know, never had a husband. Never had a boyfriend, either. Had a friend once, before deciding not to have one. To be honest, speaking of spouses, I fail to see the point of such formalities, but that's likely due to personal ignorance.

Hello. Suguru Getou.

[shelbycobra]

I've always wanted to get married, but I figured my chance with Peter had passed like, a decade ago. We weren't supposed to end up together.

I kind of figured it'd be with Tobey, actually.

[trash_eater]

[why is he even talking with something like that? Oh, well.]

[wait... is she somehow mocking him? A decade? No, it's a coincidence.]

But you were so quick to move on. Congratulations, good for you.

[shelbycobra]

It wasn't quick, it was eight years, almost nine now. [She chuckles.] I'm not great at most things that don't involve racing.

I'm sorry, I shouldn't make this all about me. What is it you do?

[trash_eater]

[Eight years are nothing? No wonders these things are loathsome-]

[Smile. Smile. Conceal intentions. Or disgust.]

And you're good at racing? Or better than good?

Oh, me? You could call me a humble exorcist.
