  • "They are like yin and yang."

    It was a discussion of characters that made all the sense in the world. Perfect. They are perfect for each other.  Too perfect for each other. Their personalities perfectly conform to the other's. It achieves balance. 

    "That's why they can't be together," he said. "It can't happen. If they get together it's like the birth of Christ all over again."

    And I couldn't help but notice how much that makes sense. Two people so ridiculously perfect for each other that people actually mentally ship them together — and probably write fictions about it. You look at them and you see just how much they could actually work. 

    But then at the same time you see that it doesn't. It makes so much sense that it can't happen. It works too much that it doesn't. It's too good to be true. Surreal. Unbelievable. Legitimately perfect. But it can't happen all because of that. 

    Meant to be but not meant to be all at the same time. 

    It is and yet it isn't.

    What it is. Isn't. Even though it is. 

    Do you understand?
