Two people in fancy romantic clothing are clasping hands and looking longingly into each other’s eyes.
Lovebird 1: I am nothing but a dried husk in an empty desert without your cool, refreshing presence to rehydrate me.
Lovebird 2: Without your calming touch, my heart is a tornado that destroys everything in its path.
Lovebird 1: I beg of you, tell me you will be with me until the end of days!
Lovebird 2: I would give my very soul if it would keep us together, but –
Lovebird 2 reaches into a hat behind them labeled “Hasty Obstacles” and takes out a paper slip. They read it.
Lovebird 2: – all love is forbidden!
Lovebird 1 is also reading a slip of paper.

This is the reason why I got into romance only through Shonen Ai. That way, I got something a little less silly for the ‘we can’t be together, because’ part. Lots of angst, which I’m not that big a fan of, either, but at least something more reliable as an obstacle.
Still, very fun comic … love it :)
