Floppy towers above $name, growing closer with every passing second. He stands above, looking down at $name as they peek between shaking fingers at the creature that they had chosen to fight. $name quivers in fear as Floppy's eyes, bluescreened and reading defunct code, seemingly bore into $name from this frightening angle. His smile grows. $name's smile is long gone.

$name puts all of their energy into one last attack, kicking Floppy's legs(?) out from beneath him and make an attempt at holding him down. It doesn’t work. Floppy takes control of the fight in an instant, easily overpowering $name.
The last thing $name sees is the knowing smile of Flopp E. Disck as their vision begins to blur. Was it worth it? Should they really have done that?

Sweat is running down $name's face as the soles of their shoes (presuming that they are wearing shoes) repeatedly hit the ground below them, the shock of each hit vibrating through their entire body. $name donesn’t dare to look back. $name runs. And runs. And runs.

(set: $typewriterText to "I believe that there is no meaning to life. And that's perfectly okay. Life is about having fun and doing whatever you want as long as it causes no harm. Allowing yourself to exist in your natural state can be very difficult, I would know. But the self-acception must come first before one is able to truly 'live'. We live in a system that encourages nonstop work, and this is very damaging. All of these social constructs are simply humanmade, just like I am. They prevent us from truly existing freely as ourselves. Is there meaning in this? The meaning is yours to find out. I cannot tell you what to believe, and you cannot change my dialogue. Everything I say is pre-written and programmed by someone far away from here. Is there meaning in that fact, too? That's for you to decide on your own as you continue to exist on this giant floating space rock. Our planet is one of millions, billions, trillions in galaxies that we cannot even begin to comprehend. If we can exist together on this planet in the middle of space with an incomprehensible amount of space, galaxies, planets, and suns all around us, then anything is possible. You live on a giant spinning rock floating with so much still to be discovered even on our own planet. Anything is possible.

''1) ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS''
To be eligible for "marriage," you must be currently reading the terms and conditions. Lucky you, you've passed step 1. Unless you've somehow gotten ahold of these terms and conditions in another way, such as HACKING, which is SCARY! Good thing that these terms and conditions are sponsored by MySlushVPN! With MySlushVPN, you can be safe from the SCARY HACKERS. It is a product that is very good and useful. You will love it.

''2) CANCELLATION POLICY''
After reading this sentence, you are legally required to opt out of the very real and existing cancellation policy. This means that you cannot end the act of "marriage" and will stay with Flopp E. Disck until the end of time. The only way to get out of "marriage" is if the infinitely more important half of the couple (referring to one "Flopp E. Disck") decides to end the relationship. (It should be noted that he is programmed to not do this.)
''3) FORSEEABLE FUTURE GUARENTEE''
Your never-ending future with one "Flopp E. Disck" comes bundled with the complimentary lifetime guarentee (additional payment required). This insures that the following events will take place within the period of your "marriage":
3a) Quality Time
You are guarenteed for a lifetime of quality time with Floppy. Here at Macroslush®, we only know how to manufacture the highest quality time possible, and have never made a customer unhappy (based on our heavily moderated employee-created online reviews). This may include "Holding hands". To participate in this action, place your palm on the screen and simply leave it there forever. It's that easy!
3b) Words of Affirmation
Your new spouse is programmed with 9 pre-written affirmations that can be displayed to you via the screen in the form of a text box. Additional affirmations may be purchased for $90 individually. Outsourced affirmations are illegal, and cannot be inside your mind at any point.
3c) Acts of service
If you wish to do so, you may request for Floppy to speed up your computer. He will, in turn, slow it down by 10% at each request. Acts are non-refundable.
''4) INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AGREEMENT''
By accepting the terms and conditions, you hereby allow Macroslush® to collect and use everything you write, search, and download for our own purposes. Such purposes include laughing at your search history, changing your desktop wallpaper, and shutting down your computer for no reason. Each one of these are guarenteed in the "marriage" package. Any original written data in WrittenUP® will be immediately sent to Macroslush® headquarters and subsequently published in a book that will be available worldwide. You hereby agree that all of your work is now intellectual property of Macroslush® and has never belonged to you.]

The wedding was a huge event. The entire staff of Macroslush® were in attendence. Pixelated decorations adorn the Macroslush® WeddingPlace®. Tears are shed. Memories are made. Lives are changed.
$name and Floppy were madly in love with each other. That's all that mattered. Tears fall as $name walks down the aisle, one Flopp E. Disck waiting for them. They look into each others' eyes deeply, before both are prompted to say their vows.
Floppy's vows make no sense. At all. What does "in bugs and antivirus" even mean? $name had no idea.
Then, the moment of truth. Holding hands, the two say the most important thing that they have ever said ever.
