"Wait wait wait! Back up. What did you say about that one? Legs for days. You said I couldn't handle her?"
"Uh yeah? Smoothie is one of the three Sweet Commanders alongside brother Cracker and Katakuri. They are unbeatable. Pretty sure nobody short of Kaido himself could "handle her". And you're not Kaido as we established."
"HMPH! I bet I could! Hell I bet some of Kaidos boys could! I've met them, they are very strong."
"What-"
"Anyway! I decided I'm picking her. What can you tell me about this Smoothie. What flavor?"
"I told you. Don't. It's for your benefit. Plus if the gossips are true she might not even be- ahem. Never mind that. Just pick someone else. Ok?"
"Hmmmmmmmm-"
Looking at the pictures spread around the table you begin to focus intently. But with all the loud humming and the gears in your head turning you feel frustration building until you the brainjuice in your head overheats.
"AAAAAARGH! Screw this! Too much! Don't wanna think! I'm just gonna pick one of you and be done with it!"
The decuplets are astonished by your stupidity and Nutmeg starts rubbing the bridge of her nose in frustration.
"Do you have any idea what you're saying you big idiot? In fact, do you have any idea what marriage even is?!"
"No. All I know is that Brofishy always wanted me to marry his sister. And I said if he wants his sister married he should do it himself!"
That gets a laugh out of the boys at least but the girls are weirded out by it.
"Alright... I see we have to do this the hard way. Listen numbnuts! Marriage is a big deal! You become family with the one you choose and enter a union that lasts until the day you die! Do you grasp that? So don't take it lightly! Even though this is an arranged marriage of sorts you have the opportunity to choose! So pick someone that you feel is special, that you feel attracted to, that makes you feel comfortable. Because you'll spend the rest of your life with them! Get it?"
"Hmmm. Yes. I think I do."
"Good! So-"
"So then why can't I choose you?"
"E-Eh?"
"I think you're cool! I still remember what it was like 2 years ago when I came here. I could finally play with kids like me and felt like I made proper friends. So I don't get why I can't pick you. I mean you're strong, you're nice and I feel comfortable being here. Yeah. I like you! So I wouldn't mind if I chose you I think."
Newichi lets out a quiet "Holy shit" and the others fall silent. Meanwhile Nutmeg just swallows hard.
"D-Don't be silly! You don't even know anything about me. So how could you say stuff like that? Stupid."
"Then tell me. Tell me more about you! I wanna know."
