"I'm crushed," Cleon said, not even bothering to conceal how deadpan he was delivering his words. He didn't know why he got such a kick out of antagonizing Greengrass aside from how amusing the others reactions were. It had been that way even before the man up and decided to fondle some girl in a coat room or whatever it was society was saying had happened. He wasn't too sure what he personally believed nor did it really matter.

"That is so soon! I suppose true love can make one want to be wed as soon as possible." That much, at least, he meant whether he thought it true of this particular engaged pair or not. Not that he had personally ever been in love nor had he ever really had a desire for it. From what he had observed, it only brought pain to his ilk. Thanks, society.
