Elf: I don't think we could make it work. Human men usually get really self-conscious about dating me when they realize they're only going to be with me for a short amount of time relative to my lifetime. It gets bad and I've had a few try to find potions or amulets of immortality and I have to end it there.
Me: Ok but how about a one-decade stand.
"Would you still love me even if I was an abomination of nature, forsaken by entropy itself?"
I promise babe, I'm seeking immortality for my own reasons. I'm actually trying to study ultimate power, not just trying to be closer to you.
