You, uh. Think he's changing? [ huh. like. dave is aware dirk is being better about things he specifically asks about (did roxy never ask? is it just because dave is asking? he's still unsure of how much power he wields here and he is still constantly surprised dirk cares about him because he's...dumb). but like. it's weird hearing it from someone dirk has known most of his life if not all of it? ] I think we're doin' ok, but if I need an assist I'll remember that.
[ he will probably not remember that. ]
Gifts for Rose? I mean, I am assumin' you mean beyond just spending quality time with her, because she would be down to spend all the time with you. Why don't you guys start up like, a round robin writing journal or something, she'd probs get a kick out of that. Otherwise she likes cats like you do so you can't go wrong there? Although I think she is like way more lowkey about it, obviously. And like tentacle monsters. Do you knit shit?
Oh. Uh. I dee kay about that, Davey. My... mom left knitting needles behind and I played around with them from time to time? And I don't think my writing is all that great, tbh. Kind of huge fuckin' shoes to fill there. Both things. 'Specially the writin'. There's nooooo way I'm sharing that godawful shit with anyone, nope, nope, nope, nope.
[ Roxy knows she's not up to snuff. There's no way she could ever hope to be even a fraction as talented as her mom, and she's absolutely certain that Rose is no different. Rose turned out to be more beautiful than Roxy ever dreamed, so who knows? Maybe she's more talented than Roxy's unconditional reverence gives her credit for, too?
Those shoes are waaaaay to big for her feet, and she's embarrassed even thinking about sharing something like that with Rose. ]
So cats it is I guess...
[ She did program one of P-dot's drones to meow... maybe Dirk and her could build and program her a robokitty...? ]
Honestly I think you're like, selling yourself short here? Rose isn't holding you up to some super high standards here. Not to say she's holding you to low standards, but you underestimate just how much I'm pretty sure she feels bad about believing her mom was in some passive aggressive war with her or whatever and not like. Getting a chance to ever be genuine with her. She wants a relationship with you, not with whoever you think you have to be to "measure up".
[ it's easier to give advice about this shit than it is to take it. ]
But yeah, you can't go wrong with cats. Rose is apeshits bananas about 'em.
