The Bachelor: Conclusion
Friends, thank you for watching The Bachelor, a most elaborate ploy to cheer a miser up. I am profoundly moved that many of you risked pretty necks and present relationships to make me feel better. I will never forget this. And to you, Lord Bader, master schemer, I am glad to have you on my side. May the force be with you.

SHIKAI: For attempting to rescue me from the pits of despair a second time, thank you. You are the most unlikely Prince Charming, and I am not that thrilled to be your damsel-in-distress. I know you try to talk tough and act abrasive like some famous webcomic character, but deep inside, you are all fluff. Right, Jiko?
VERITAS: I will talk to you in private.
01 JEANATHYN: I am very surprised to find you here. I did not realize you can write beautiful poetry, too. Thank you. Intelligent conversation is very hard to come by these days. I wish you could drop by someday so we can talk about music and poetry over a cup of good coffee.
02 AUGUST: I am sorry about your profile. I am flattered that you still sent an entry even when you are in a relationship with two attractive men. I hope they are not the jealous types. Let us make love, not war.
03 ZUZU: What a privilege to have you here. Size will never be a matter when you have features that make up for it, like enormity of chest – er, heart. Your hands are exceptionally sensual. I wish to hold them someday.
04 PATIENCE: Your concern, my pretty, is a pleasure and a surprise. I shall personally introduce myself to you if our travel plans push through. I am also looking forward to meeting your lovely sisters, and your equally lovely guardian. Thank you very much.
05 AIDEN: I don’t understand why you have to go through me to get to Manx. She really is quite easy. And I’d rather the lacy lingerie stays with her. (I don’t understand why women wear such itchy things.) And you really should stop breaking Kitori’s heart.
06 NICNEVEN: I am enchanted to find you here. I would never have thought an elf of noble status would fancy me, a lowly human, for a date. Thank you for bewitching me.
07 DIEGO: I have heard much about you from Dragan, D. You seem to be gravitating towards Veritas’ chosen path (of destruction), which worries me. Please tell Sam to send you over to us so I can look after you closely.
08 CHIARA: I believe this is the first time we’ve met? Thank you for taking the time to join. I hope to cross paths with you again and again in the future.
09 JENNY: I don’t know what I did to deserve your kindness and wisdom. I cannot thank you enough. I hope you never tire of me.
SARA: I’m glad to see you again! Manx says she will go out on a date with Trent anytime. Just tell her when.

And to everyone who sent me virtual hugs and gave Fully Articulated more than 15,000 hits, thank you for giving me a soul.
TSUKISOU: I decided not to make a choice until you send your entry. There is no need to rush. I will wait for you as long as I exist.
