Emphatic asides (That man! God!) without the emphasis. I did not know they were a thing, but here we have it.

I can see where the idea of Whedon as a downer might grow from his avoidance of happy couples, but that's not a realism thing. It's well established that stable, functional relationships are boring to watch.
