He burst into laughter and stopped when he realized that he was the only one who found it funny. "Wait. You are serious."

She stared at him blankly.

"What difference does it make whether we marry as humans or demi deities?" He asked. He was certain that whether or not he was allowed to have relationships with other women, he would not want to be with anyone aside from her.

He couldn't comprehend her thought process. For some reason, she seemed convinced that he might want to marry another female later.
