What kind of a book series involves a man falling in love with a newborn baby?
A really, frighteningly popular one. One read by thousands of impressionable teens that don't know what love is yet. Teens who will never get a clear and non-fucked up message about love from any other media. It makes me want to write a book for young teens with a normal view about love and relationships. But then again, what is normal even?
I can tell you what isn't: a grow adult thinking a baby is his soul-mate. What happens if she grows up and decides she doesn't want to be with him? He won't have another soul-mate, so she'll essentially be screwing him over for life, even after all the time he spent watching over her as a baby. He waited so patiently, and thus, deserves a reward. And what kind of a force unintentionally makes an adult fall in love with a baby? Does he really like her? How could he? It's not her looks or her personality, she's hardly existed in the world yet! Is it because he thinks she will grow up to be a watered down version of her mother? I mean come on, how long is he gonna have to wait before true love can happen?
It's just all kinds of messed up. But it gives me some food for thought on normal relationship.
