A stupid book! It was called something that implied it would have forbidden secrets in it. But it actually only made you feel compelled to write down a stupid secret, and the compulsion was not even very strong.
[it was a coin flip and she succeeded the roll.]
And then all of the secrets were things like "I'm afraid of spiders" "I once held hands with a boy."
[she just thinks it's funny and also she obviously knows what he really means is that he's embarrassed to want to kiss a handsome young hunk.]
I would agree with you that in the grand scheme of the cosmos, kissing a boy isn't the most important thing. [she's obviously making fun of him by putting it like this.] Why, to the gods, our simple mortal kisses must be such a fleeting moment as to be unremarkable.
On the other hand, it doesn't really seem to hurt anything.

Not something that can exactly give any useful information... [ like it can't reveal to us who did a murder, disgusting ]
This place does seem to like making us say secrets. I told Lucas something against my will earlier today.

The secret that I told Lucas was that weeks ago, when I was cursed to be in love with Basilio, we did kiss. I lied, during the party.
