I'm truly trying to check my own thinking here.


Tav: Hi, how do you feel about me?
Halsin: You seem like a good person, but I'm not available for a relationship right now. I have too much to worry about.
Tav: Yeah, sorry about that. I'll help you out.
Halsin: Thank you.

Tav: Hi, so how are we holding on now?
Halsin: You exceed my expectations. But I still can't, sorry.
Tav: I'm doing my best to help you, I promise.

Tav: Hi, you seem relieved now that we have lifted the curse.
Halsin: I am. You are so exceptional and now I feel like maybe I haven't paid enough attention to myself for a long time.
Tav: Yeah, but that's understandable. You have a lot of responsibilities.
Halsin: I do. But if you are open to it, I actually do have feelings for you.
Tav: I have feelings for you, too, but I'm already in a relationship.
Halsin: That's true and I don't want to cheat on anyone. So let's continue this only if you and your partner are alright with an open relationship.
Tav: Yeah, about that. What do you mean?
Halsin: I have strong feelings for you. I don't fall in love easily, but you are so exceptional. I love you and would want to see where this goes. However, my nature is such that I want to be free to have relationships with other people, too. While I have no one at the moment, that's important to me. I understand if you don't feel the same and don't want to continue because of that.
Tav: I think that sounds good. I'll ask how my partner feels about the idea.

Tav: Hi! They said that they are alright with us.
Halsin: That's such a relief, because I really like you a lot. Sex?
Tav: Sex.

Tav: So, what's up?
Halsin: You are still so wonderful.
Tav: A kiss, then?

Halsin: Now that we've defeated the baddies and saved everyone, I have figured out what I want to do.
Tav: Oh?
Halsin: Yeah, all these kids we saved need a dad and I really want to be that to them. I want to build a refugee camp and take care of everyone again. I'm actually really excited about finding a new path in my life!
Tav: That's so great! Good for you.
Halsin: Yeah... So I was wondering if you'd want to come with me, or...? I mean it's totally fine if you have other plans. I'll just miss you, that's all.
Tav: I'll miss you too. I think I'll have another path for now, but you never know when we'll meet again.
Halsin: You'll always have a place in my heart, love.

Basically, this is how it went for me (using some of your lines because I'm lazy and don't have the energy to write my own):



Tav: Hi, how do you feel about me?
Halsin: You seem like a good person, and under different circumstances I would totally have romanced the hell out of you. If you help me out with the Shadow curse, maybe we can get to know each other later?
Tav: I'd like that.
Halsin: Me too.

Tav: Hi, so how are we holding on now?
Halsin: You exceed my expectations. And here's some things about me what you'd might want to know. I'd love to get to know you more too.
Tav: I really want to know you better.
Halsin: You will. Soon I'll be able to give you my full attention, but for now, my mind is still elsewhere. But soon. Good things come to those who wait.

Tav: Hi, you seem relieved now that we have lifted the curse.
Halsin: I am. And now that the fog's been lifted from my mind, I found you, and you're exceptional.
Tav: So are you.
Halsin: About earlier, I really do mean what I've said about giving you my full attention. Now you can have it. If you want me. I don't fall in love easily, but you're so amazing that I feel like a smitten teenager when looking upon you. II want more than to be just friends. What say you?
Tav: I thought you'd never ask. Yes, I'm in love with you, too.
Halsin: That's wonderful. However, I want to be free to f**k other people, too. And I kind of want you to do that too, maybe I can even watch? Or participate at some point? You're okay with that, right? If not, this won't work. Yes? No?
Tav: Ehh...yes?
Halsin: Wonderful. Sex tonight?
Tav: ...ok

Halsin: God I'm nervous. Never felt like this about anyone before. You're so special.
Tav: I like you too.

Tav: Can we talk?
Halsin: Of course, love.
Tav: So, about last night.
Halsin: It was wonderful, wasn't it. I've dreamt about you for so long. You are amazing and I only wish I'd met you sooner.
Tav: So, how do you see our relationship?
Halsin: Relationship? That's not what we have. I only want you, but please, I want you to f**k other people too. That would be fun, right? Don't limit yourself for me.
Tav: .....ehhh, can I say something?
Halsin: Nope.

Halsin: I get all warm inside by the look of you. Love you so much and can't imagine my life without you.
Tav: A kiss?
Halsin: I thought you'd never ask.

Halsin: Now that we've defeated the baddies and saved everyone, I have figured out what I want to do.
Tav: Oh?
Halsin: Yeah, all these kids we saved need a dad and I really want to be that to them. I want to build a refugee camp and take care of everyone again. I'm actually really excited about finding a new path in my life!
Tav: That's so great! Good for you.
Halsin: Yeah... So maybe you can come visit or something? You know, I'm sure they'd love to meet the hero that saved the world.
Tav: What about me?
Halsin: I'll think about you.And I hope you'll stop by for a f**k or two whenever you have the chance. Bye, love.
Tav: wha...wait...can I come?
*door closed and Halsin gone*


Alternate scene:
Tav: So, I think we have to end whatever's between us.
Halsin: What? For real? Why are you breaking my heart like this? I love you and I thought you felt the same way? Please? Don't leave me.
