"And you are obviously the prettiest you, despite all the yous being very pretty. - that's not why you're my favorite, but."

"You're - this is probably a bad idea, you're not supposed to compare your wife to other people I'm pretty sure, but I guess I already did that - uh, the other ones would fit in Osirion better? They're doing a more recognizable thing. But I like the thing you are doing more than the thing Osirion teaches people to do."

Permalink

"...it is."

Permalink

"...okay. When use words, if you have sex with someone while you're married to someone else, that's adultery. Unless - I guess some people feel that it's fine to have sex with other people as long as your spouse doesn't care, is that what this is - ?"
