So much of me went with you.

“Marry someone who lets you have a bite of their pound of flesh, even when you said you weren’t hungry. Marry someone who laughs at the same sick and twisted jokes you do. Marry someone who offers you a drink of hot mulled wine from their skull goblet on a cold day. Marry someone who you can watch gory movies full of mayhem with. Marry someone who is proud of you whether you slaughter 5 villagers a week or 5,000 a week. Marry someone who you can tell everything to while being carried in a litter by manacled slaves. Marry someone who isn’t afraid or embarrassed to hold your hand in front of your minions. Marry someone who lets you take over when decorating a dungeon. Marry someone who you can spend the day on a battlefield with without feeling stressed. Marry someone who wraps you up inside their Cloak of Flaming Terror in the winter. Marry someone who personally seeks out and eliminates your fears and phobias, like killing all the hornets in the world with a genetically engineered virus. Marry someone who makes your uniform too tight every time you hear the guards’ salute outside the door. Marry someone who you don’t always have to wash off the bloodstains for. Marry someone who accepts you all day every day, even when your Death Ray isn’t working at its best. Marry someone who puts three preserved brains on your mantel, despite telling them “just the two”. Marry someone who doesn’t judge you when you eat your body weight in enemies’ livers. Marry someone who doesn’t make you want to check your radiation levels, because you know they will glow, too. Marry someone who waits for you to get in the escape pod as your headquarters explodes around you. Marry someone who understands that you need to be alone with your delusions of grandeur sometimes. Marry someone who gets on well with your henchmen and isn’t uptight about ordering them to seize hapless victims. Marry someone who calms you down when you get mad about the hero’s escape, and never tells you it’s “all your own fault for telling him the plan before killing him”. Marry someone who makes you want to be a better villain. Marry someone who makes you cackle wildly. Marry someone who you love to conduct horrible experiments with. Marry your nefarious soulmate, your lover of sabotage, your partner in interplanetary crime”
