Alex insists he fell in love with Sophie the moment she absolutely destroyed him at Mario Kart during Sunday school in Lancaster, Summer 2005. Sophie has no recollection of this alleged event - but would like it formally noted that if such a race did occur, she most certainly won. They didn’t properly re-meet until Summer 2022 while Sophie was studying abroad in London, proving that fate (and perhaps a very delayed rematch- except Sophie is adamantly against video games) was involved. They have been happily debating the details ever since and fully intend to continue arguing about it for the rest of their lives.
