Do you think the cop will steal edgar away from you?
No. For starters, the poor man’s too docile and wrapped up in his own head to even approach expressing his feelings. And he knows better than to steal from his Superior.
For another, if Edgar returns his feelings, he is more than free to pursue him. My relationships are all open, and I encourage my partners to do the same, if they so wish. I do not expect singular fidelity out of them while I seek other partners.
Beyond that, Edgar is not an object. He cannot be stolen. If... if he ever chose to leave me to pursue the officer, that would be his own choice to make. And it would hurt. But it is, in no way, an act of him being stolen.
