A little, the contract does make a difference, but it's the vows, you know? People can get divorced, I know, they're not magic magic--but you're supposed to mean them.
*Bolly thinks about this for a bit. Vows are like a promise. To be there for the baby. To be there for each other.*
...you're my grandfather's cousin's ex-wife's half-brother's ex-partner's future husband's son. That's the closest connection I can think of, there might be a better one. But you're still proper family. That's my vow, and I mean it.
What are you doing?
