No, that's not it at all! Wanting... [flail] buckets is not the same as wanting a relationship with a person! I want Tavros in my life! I want to torment him and make him uncomfortable! I want to trade insults with him, to fight with him and be seen in public with him! I want remind him how inferior he is to me, and for him to, well... [clears his throat and looks away, folding his arms over his chest] Anyway, as nice as sloppy make-outs are, they aren't the only facet of a relationship. And it IS a relationship, Goose.
