Think I finally got over not bein' a boy.  I really liked my sideburns, y'know?

And walkin' around shirtless.  I tried to do that the day after I changed back and I think someone saw me before I remembered that I have boobs.

Y'think so? Uh...thanks~ HEEHEE

To give one's life in the name of love... it truly is a stirring tale.
Of course, it's also possible Valentine was only acting because he realized what the consequences of banning marriage for an entire generation would be.

Well, I guess I'm just sayin' that I don't know what romance or that stuff is.

I didn't think of it like that, though. 'S a lot nicer to think of it the first way. Maybe that's just me.

Valentines is a commercial holiday where you shower your loved ones with tons of chocolate or fufu merchandise.
