"Rhett?"
"Hm?"
"Do you ever wonder..."
"Wonder what?"
"Forget it. It's not important."
"No, don't do that. You know I hate when people do that."
"Fine. Just, don't laugh. It's a hypothetical."
"Okay."
"Do you ever wonder if we'd grown up differently. In a different environment or a different era. That we might be together?"
"Like... ?"
"An actual old married couple. Yeah."
"Don't be ridiculous."
"Oh, come on! I know you're all Mr. Straight Cis Guy but-"
"No, Link. I meant... Of course I have."
"Oh."
"Haven't you?"
"Mhm."
"And?"
"I asked you."
"No, you asked me if I've ever wondered. I already answered that."
"Rhett."
"Fine. I think... Yes, I think there's a possibility."
"Me too."
"But we grew up like we did. So, it's just a thought excercise, right?"
"Right."
"Link?"
"I think you're my soulmate."
"I-I thought you didn't believe in-"
"Well, it's not like I could tell my very lovely wife she isn't my soulmate because I thought my male best friend was."
"Ah. I see."
"I'm not trying to come on to you or anything. So you can wipe that frown off your face. I just think that..."
"Everything with you has always felt right."
"Yeah."
"And when we're not together it's like I'm missing a piece of myself."
"Yeah."
"And if we kissed it wouldn't actually change anything. It would just..."
"Complicate things."
"Yes."
...
"Link."
"Yeah?"
"I want very badly to complicate things."
