So basically it’s just like human marriage, in terms of divorce rate...
[ Not that Riptide would know that, but she nearly snickers at him pointing out that these marriages don’t always work the way they’re planned, as if that’s something that could surprise her. Of course, it’s not the thing that concerns her the most, and she takes a moment to figure out how to respond. ]
...Whatever happened with Getaway, I’m sorry. It was bullshit, whatever happened. I don’t need to know any details to know that.
No divorce. Once you've settled on Amica or Conjunx, it's exceptionally rare to lose that status with the other person. It only happened frequently and got rare because of the war.
What, can you not be separated? That seems like a flaw in this system. Clearly I know there are just as many shitty Cybertronians as there are humans.
[ Judgmental, but true! But then Cassandra notes his pause, and then...realizes he's explained it well. So. ]
Uh- besides that, no. [ A pause. ] Thank you. Again. I know I look like a fucking mess right now, but I know this seems important to you. So if it is...it means a lot.

It's alright. It's in the past now.

Uh. So. Anything else you wanna know about this?

[he shrugs-- riptide might, deep down, believe in love. no-one must know.]
It is. I hope it's not too weird... um, like I said, you're definitely the first organic ever to get one of these...
