Mun vs Muse: teen!Ric, Alaric and PBK
PBK: Um…
Alaric: Oh, stop fetishizing my ex-wife.
teen!Ric: Isobel? We marry Issie?
Alaric: Trust me, it’s not all it’s cracked up to be. She… she’s going to change.
PBK: Don’t be a dick, Ric. She’s fascinating. She’s one of the most intense and captivating chara- I mean, women I’ve ever know. I get she broke your heart…
teen!Ric: I should go, right? Spoilers?
PBK: In a minute. What do you think of her?
Alaric: Good question. What do you think of her?
teen!Ric: Issie’s awesome. She’s a really good photographer, and she’s smart, and cool, and easy to talk to, and she’s hot, and she’s…
PBK: See? Goddess.
Alaric: Ugh. You know she destroyed my life, right?
teen!Ric: Yep. Spoilers. I’m out. [door slams]
Alaric: You know, you could keep him clear of all this crap. Give him a better life than I had.
PBK: Love is love, dude. He’ll fall for her as sure as you did.
Alaric: Not if she’s not around.
PBK: You’re like planets in orbit.
Alaric: And there you go, fetishizing her again. She’s just a woman, and…
PBK: [waits a minute] Ric?
Alaric: I just don’t know.
PBK: Don’t know…? Need a subject, to parse that.
Alaric: Why.
PBK: … a little more specific?
Alaric: Why I wasn’t enough, in the end.
PBK: [long silence] Yeah. I know. [Pours a very large glass of bourbon and passes it over]
Alaric: Thanks, PBK.
