Zelda furrowed her eyebrows at Ros, having lost the fruit metaphor almost right away. "I'm not sure what you mean about blossoms," she admitted, because while she was hesitant to admit to misunderstanding, the clarification implied that Ros didn't understand, either, "But I - I know. And I never wanted any of - marriage, courting, any of it, until I met him. I'm not going to be like Xena."

It was Alfred or it was nothing, as far as Zelda was concerned; until after she graduated, she'd wanted to be married to her job, anyways.
