Q&A
🕑 Added 2023-02-24 09:55:27 +0000 UTCX: Since it's the month of love, let's talk about it. Who was your first love?
M: First love? As in… the first one you ever had sex with?
N: I think they mean romantic love. Sex isn't love. Necessarily.
M: 'Romantic love'? Tell me the definition.
N: Marcus, just say you haven't loved anyone and—
M: I just want to make sure that I understood the question.
X: Do you need more time to—
M: Alright, so, let's say you don't dislike someone's company too much.
N: Oh, dear.
M: And you would mind (a little) if they decided to screw your dad instead of you, for example.
N: What the—
M: Is that romantic love?
X: …I suppose the definition depends on the person, yes.
M: Then, I've loved before! My love knows no bounds.
X: That's great. Well, what about the others? Camilla?
C: I won't tell.
M: Mother dearest, are you blushing?
C: I am not. I will skin you alive.
Marcus laughs. Camilla doesn't.
N: I don't think I want to tell either.
X: That's not how this goes. Our audience demands honesty.
N: But I don't want to…
Camilla gives Niall an understanding nod.
C: Just to make this clear: Can you love someone romantically but don't know if you ever want anything physical?
X: Of course. Again, depends on a person.
C: I see.
Niall nods.
X: Care to elaborate? Both of you?
C: No.
X: Highly disappointing. I suppose I can't make you. (Can we make them?)
C: Who are you talking to?
X: The producer confirmed that we can't make you.
T: My first love was a man who was murdered.
C: What?
T: It was my fault that he died.
X: That sounds… dramatic.
T: …I'm sorry that I spoiled the mood.
C: Why didn't you tell me? I'm so sorry.
T: I'm sorry, I just—
M: Wait a moment. If we are counting platonic love, doesn't family count?
N: But it's not romantic love. Besides, Tin said that—
M: But how? How does 'romance' change things? If it's not sex, then what is it?
C: This is not the time, you absolute—
M: I really want to know, this is highly important. Oh, right. I'm sorry to hear that, Tin. He sounded like a stellar man.
T: …
M: But you've lived with the knowledge for years, now. I just found out that—
N: That you can love someone without wanting to have sex with them?
M: I knew that, of course! That's how relatives are! But why is there a third way to love someone?
N: Marcus. You're dense.
M: You're one to talk!
X: Tinsae, do you want to talk about that?
T: No, please, it's alright. Marcus seems like he's having a crisis.
M: I'm just wondering why you all seem to act like this is something I should know. It's annoying.
N: Well, familial love is platonic and it's not based on physical attraction, right?
M: Yes.
N: Romantic love is based on physical attraction.
M: So, sex is love. As I said.
N: …No. It's not like that at all.
Marcus groans.
N: You don't love prostitutes, right?
M: I don't care for prostitutes.
N: I didn't ask that. It's just… sex isn't love. Do you think that those people who visit prostitutes love them?
M: But then… what is it? What is love?
N: You know what? You'll know when you know. Or, perhaps you won't. That's alright, too.
M: Great. It doesn't sound like you know the answer, either.
N: Perhaps not…
X: Quinn, you've been quiet.
Q: I love Hati.
X: They were your first love?
Q: Yes. Well… kind of. Maybe no?
M: See? It's not an easy question, even if you all make it out to be.
Q: You have no idea…
N: You loved someone before Hati?
Q: Many. Or none at all.
M: You're even more confused than I am.
