"I have literally never thought of myself as the kind of person who gets married, but — not having to hide sounds really nice. Or having to deal with Fairy Godmother." 

"I have no idea what Fairy Godmother is like!"

"She's the very worst parts of how good people are — she teaches Remedial Goodness and she hates us, she wants us all back on the Isle, she doesn't even try to hide it — and Chad Charming can get away with literally anything because he's Cinderella's kid, but if I seem sort of pissed off about it I need to keep a positive attitude about Auradon or my cynicism will get in the way of my becoming good, or something —" 

"Unfortunately, Cascadia is not asshole-free, but at least we don't have any classes called Remedial Goodness."

"We had to do worksheets on whether you should lure children into an amusement park, turn them into donkeys, and sell the donkeys!" 

"Well, should you?"

"Of course not! Why would you do that! You have an amusement park, why would you not just charge admission for the amusement park!" 

"I love you."

"Shit, I mean--"

"— you mean?" 

"You... say things that Lily would say if she were in your shoes?"

"That's adorable," he says, and kisses Lev's cheek. "— the first time Kaleva said he loved me I freaked out and ran away but I'm. More used to it now." 

"I mean, really, I love Lily and you look and think like Lily. I know you're a different person."

"Still. I won't be upset or freaked out or anything about hearing it. It's kind of nice, actually." 

"I would probably love you if we were going to end up being together for more than a month!"

"That's adorable." 

Bounce bounce. "So what else do you learn in remedial goodness besides 'there are better ways to make money from an amusement park than by turning people into donkeys'?"

"Oh, you know. A romantic relationship contains exactly one man and exactly one woman. It is very important that men not wear dresses, for some reason, she wouldn't tell us why. Chivalry is not the same as cavalry." 

"If men can wear dresses, you might get confused about whether someone is a girl, and how could we possibly survive as a society without knowing the genital shape of everyone we encounter?"

"And it's extremely important that men and women fulfill their roles and dont deviate from them, because the world will end if a woman punches someone in a man's defense and not the other way around, unless the woman is Mulan, but that doesn't count because Fairy Godmother likes Mulan.' 

"At least it makes more sense if you believe in God! Like, if you think some all-powerful guy is going to torture men if they wear skirts, then it makes sense to try to get people to not."

"I don't really think it makes sense either way!" 

Lev is going to curl up on Sasha's shoulder and fall asleep.

That sounds like a good idea. Sasha will join him. 

In the morning Cascadilev goes to check on Smolsha.
