How do you convince someone that they don't want to continue the career path they've wanted since they were a wee ickle thing because you'd prefer that they spend their life with you instead?

Yes, I'm perfectly aware that it's selfish.

Dude just tie them up or something.

[pouredforth]

He's entirely capable of untying himself.

[dannyiii]

Tie him up with something that he can't untie?

[pouredforth]

Well, there's always teleportation.

There's a reason why I'm saying convince.

[leavemea_lone]

You don't.

[pouredforth]

Bzzzzt! Not a selectable option! Please try again.

[leavemea_lone]

Look asshole, I'm in exactly that situation. You won't win.

[pouredforth]

You never know. There are different people involved and all.

Besides, giving up is... giving up. And therefore stupid.

There's always the plane writing messages in the sky bit. If nothing else it might get their attention.

[pouredforth]

It might.

I wonder how much I'd have to threaten someone to make it do that...

[leela1]

Not sure. Might start with threatening their hands first, or their eyes. Then move on to their balls and their families. But I've noticed that you get more with threatening gonads than you do threatening the in-laws.

[pouredforth]

I've noticed that too. Isn't that funny?

"Make yourself seem better 'n his career."

[pouredforth]

Hmmm. Hard.

[victormakesart]

"How so?"

[pouredforth]

He's very job-devoted.

....Evan. *unreadable face, is like WHOA this is WEIRD he's YOUNGER but eh, shows nothing on her face*

[pouredforth]

[brucesallie]

This is a surprise.

[pouredforth]

Is it? I can't possibly imagine how.
