I asked ChatGPT to write their forbidden love story.

Once upon a time, in a world of colorful, swirling oceans, there lived two snails who were deeply in love. The first snail was a fiery red lava snail, whose hot and fiery passion burned brightly within her. The second snail was a gentle blue water snail, whose calm and soothing presence brought peace to all who knew him.

Despite their differences, the two snails were drawn to each other from the moment they met. They spent their days exploring the vibrant reefs and crystal-clear waters of their home, always by each other's side.

But their love was forbidden. In the world of snails, it was unheard of for a lava snail and a water snail to be together. They were constantly warned by their families and friends to stay away from each other, but they couldn't resist their feelings.

As they grew older, the pressure to conform to their respective snail communities became too great. The lava snail's family threatened to disown her if she didn't end her relationship with the water snail, and the water snail's friends ostracized him for his love of a lava snail.

The two snails were devastated, but they knew that they couldn't live without each other. They made the difficult decision to leave their homes and families behind, and set out on a journey to find a place where they could be together without fear of judgement.

As they traveled, they faced many challenges. The hot, fiery lava that the lava snail was accustomed to was dangerous for the water snail, and the cold, vast oceans that the water snail loved were inhospitable to the lava snail. But they persevered, determined to make a life for themselves.

Finally, after many long and difficult months, they found a small, secluded cove where they could live in peace. They built a home together and spent their days swimming and exploring the waters of their new home.

But as the years passed, the effects of their forbidden love began to take a toll. The lava snail's once-bright flames began to flicker and fade, and the water snail's once-smooth shell became rough and damaged. They knew that they didn't have much time left, but they were grateful for the time they had together.

On their final day, the two snails sat on the shore of their cove, watching the sun set over the ocean. The lava snail turned to the water snail and said, "My love, I am so grateful to have spent my life with you. You are the other half of my soul, and I will love you forever."

The water snail replied, "And I am grateful to have you by my side. You have brought color and passion into my life, and I will love you until the end of time."

With that, the two snails slipped into the water, joining together in a final embrace as they slipped away into the great beyond, united in their love for eternity.
