Hey, Oswald! You chastise Victoria for chasing after a man who doesn't want her, but couldn't you say the same thing about you pestering Victoria despite the fact she's clearly not into you?

{¤} "A respectable question, my dear chum!"

You have no clue who this person is but okay, Ozzie.

"Perhaps I should remind you that I'm contractually obligated to take Victoria to be my bride. Even if I wanted to marry someone else, I can't exactly pursue them without being in breach of the contract. Victoria may not mind if I romantically pursued someone else, but both of our fathers would be pretty pissed off. Believe me, Victoria telling me to rot in hell for the fifteenth time is preferable to getting on my father's bad side..."

Cassius has broken a couple of Ozzie's ribs when he wasn't boiling with rage. May the gods have mercy on him if he were ever to awaken the flames of fury deep within his father's soul.

"Besides, I don't believe Victoria's lack of interest in me is as clear as you believe it to be..."

As if on cue, Oswald turns around and catches Victoria subtly taking a glimpse at his...derrière. She hides her embarrassed blush in her textbook, praying that Oswald would go back to ignoring her so she could continue to study him without him noticing. Not because Victoria likes him or anything, don't be foolish, she's just...trying to figure out why the other girls find him so appealing other than the prospect on giving birth to the next Featherton. Victoria figures it has to be out of physical attractiveness, considering how infuriated she tends to be after spending five minutes with the guy. Then again, the other girls seem to eat up everything he says, so maybe Oswald just isn't her type. Please let him not be her type...

Oswald turns away again, allowing Victoria to get away with stealing a glance or two. She'll warm up to his presence on her own terms. They have plenty of time before their wedding day to be acquainted with one another anyway. Forcing himself upon her during school hours wasn't conducive to developing a healthy relationship. Ozzie can't exactly give her personal space during courtship meetings, but the least he could do is leave her be when he's able to.

"I might not be anything like the man she wants, but I have a feeling I'm the man she needs." {¤}
