Recently I was introduced to a practice that does not exist in my home world.

Said practice is 'marriage' and I became rather curious about it. Someone suggested to me that I read some wedding planning books or romance novels to learn more about it. I asked one of the sales person at the nearby bookstore for their most popular romance novels.

[At this point there is a very long pause in Disciple's reading as she tries to find a way to put this politely. She was pretty certain what she had been reading in these books was exaggerated, or some weird fetish fulfillment but what if it wasn't and she just ended up insulting a bunch of people?]

I

[And there she stops again]

am confused. By a lot of things I have read in these books and would like clarification on some things so I do not go off with the wrong ideas of the romantic practices of humans. I'd rather not go into detail about what I have read in some of these books since I understand we have some young ones with access to this network, so if someone could just tell me about marriage and the human quadrant system I would be much obliged.

Far be it from me to judge the private tastes of those in a relationship, but it's usually a good idea as a general rule.

[She was just joking around at first but hey! Why not actually get Signless some chocolate?]

There s33m to be several places in Death City that cater to sw33ts. Which do you think is the best?

[thorny]

My personal favorite is Death By Pastry, although whether this stems from actual quality or my being a slave to habit will be a mystery forever unsolved.

Then I will be certain to peruse what they have to offer. To who do I owe my thanks for so enlightening me?

[thorny]

Rose. There's no thanks necessary, as dumping information on unsuspecting personages is merely one of the many tasks I'm required to carry out as a member of the noble circle of flighty broads.
