    "You want me to pretend that I love you." "It's easy. Just assume our goals are the same." "What does that mean?" "That we want the same things. That we want what's best for each other. That we're together. Haven't you ever been in love?" "No. Have you?" "Well, no. But it can't be hard to imagine, can it?" "I think being in love might be the hardest thing to imagine." "Just assume we are one person. Your goals are my goals. What hurts you hurts me. Our goal is staying together and doing what's best for us as a team." Alice didn't think this was how real relationships worked, but it sounded nice. "Where did you learn that?" "Immanuel Kant." "Wasn't Kant a virgin?" "He was a great philosopher!" Alice's head hurt. She suspected being in love was just two people lying to each other.
