"Not my most graceful moment."
"It was more graceful than your first instance of choking. That was, to put it kindly, absolutely horrifying."
"That's putting it kindly?"
"You looked as if your head were seconds away from combusting. Horrifying is the best one can say about such a sight."
"Okay. Now that you ruined this sandwich for me--"
"I couldn't ruin any food item for you."
"I don't want to eat it anymore. With you around. Next I know, you're going to say you're pregnant."
"That's an impossibility."
"Did you think I really thought that was your next thing?"
"Well, Leo has been experimenting with male pregnancy. But I'd have to make love with a man, and I'm not interested in engaging in such sexual contact. Nor do I wish to pause my career, as I'd certainly have to if I found myself with child."
"Are you serious?"
"Do I seem like I want to pause my career?"
"About Spaceman getting dudes pregnant!"
"He's not getting them pregnant; he's assisting them in their quest to become pregnant. Though none have been successful."
"..."
"Actually, I might have hallucinated Leo telling me that. I shouldn't mix purples with grays and auburns."
"..."
"You're gawking, Lemon."
"You can't take pills from him anymore. I can't marry a pill-popper."
"You're saying yes to my proposal?"
"Maybe. Yes. This is insane. We're crazy. You more so. No offense. Crazy people shouldn't get married to each other."
"First of all, we are not crazy. Secondly, whatever oddness we possess is often oddness we share. We're exactly the type of people who should get married. That's why I asked you. Along with the fact that it's more than just probable I love you."
"It's more than just likely for me. This is crazy."
"It's not. Now what do you say you throw the sandwich away and we go out for a proper lunch?"
"Is that some sort of euphemism for doing it?"
"It could be. If that's... what you want."
"Maybe. You want to do it and then go get lunch?"
"Lemon, I don't think I've ever loved you more than I do right now."
