Do you want to get candy-cane fairy lights? Also, no, I am the only person in any given situation who is allowed to cheat, obviously.

[windeity]

[An enthused nod.] I think they'd be cool. Either those or snowflakes? They make the kind that change colors, they'd be cool to leave on overnight and stuff. And that is bullshit and you don't get to cheat!

[parodeity]

Why not both? And also, what do I get if I don't cheat? [ bribery is so much harder without aj ]

[windeity]

I like both. We have four walls. And hm! [Give him some time to think.] Something really cool? Music-something.

[parodeity]

That sounds temptin' but if you cheat, I cheat. [ also sometimes if john doesn't cheat, dave cheats, but details, ] Also you give me music somethings anyway?

[windeity]

My thing isn't cheating? It would be helping spread winter cheer. [The way he's grinning pretty much says he knows he's full of shit.] I could totally stop giving you music somethings? I can definitely stop singing.

[parodeity]

Would you really? [ he raises an eyebrow and he's not sure if john would or wouldn't threaten that, actually. so the answer is...important, probably. ]

[windeity]

It is entirely possible. [How does Dave like it when someone else isn infuriatingly vague?] Singing is kind of a you-only thing.

[parodeity]

[ he HATES IT ]

I could stop my you-only stuff, too, you know.

[ no he fucking couldn't, he's weak ]

[windeity]

[Yeah ok even John knows that's probably not true.]

What counts as me-only stuff for you?

[parodeity]

[ he stops walking and looks at either john or the brilliant technicolor changing light display behind john. it's impossible to say. (mostly he is looking at john. but the lights beckon). ]

Do you want an actual answer?

[windeity]

[Why are we stopping...?]

If you have one, I would like to hear it, yes.

[parodeity]

[ we don't have to an dave will start walking again actually so he doesn't have to look over at john, stride a little longer and not so matched to john so he's a little bit ahead. ]

Holdin' hands. Stupid winter bullshit in the cold and snow because no matter how much I like Eren I'm not letting him get me on snowboards. Don't take that as an idea for a thing to do, I'm beggin' you. Opened doors and Tuesday nights and Saturdays. I actually do not sing for people usually, although I'm not specifically opposed. Home base. The things we do not talk about. I don't know, dude, there are a million and one specifically John things, I'm pretty sure that's normal?

[windeity]

[Okay is he still holding John's hand and just like dragging him along as he outpaces him or did he let go, inquiring minds need to know. But either way John's giving him a confused look as he works to keep up. It's not too hard, but Dave does have longer legs.]

...okay, maybe you are right. But you can't take all of those if I cheat that is totally unfair.

[parodeity]

[ lmao no he's still holding his hand are you joking ]

Neither's yours.

[ glad dave's way too intense about john singing for him sometimes ]

[windeity]

[Good!!!]

Oh come on. Me singing to you is not the same as Tuesday nights and Saturdays and sleeping together. [He doesn't think his singing is that important.]

[parodeity]

Maybe not to you? [ he'll slow down a little again. ] But that doesn't mean it ain't to me.

[windeity]

You're cute sometimes. [It's murmured but there's a small sigh.] We can negotiate the terms about cheating later. I still have to get better at the windy thing.

[parodeity]

[ he doesn't catch it, but he hears the part about cheating and sighs before changing topics. ]

Speaking of music, guess what?

[windeity]

[Fine, he goes with it.]

What?

[parodeity]

I'll be workin' with you on the first.

[ elliot texted him like...way early in the month but. ]

[windeity]

You're playing at the wedding? [So basically John's overall demeanor just went from :D to :D! so that's fine.] Elliot talked to you? He said he had a few DJs he was thinking of.

[parodeity]

[ ...he's such a puppy...? ]

Yep. He slotted me in for it. Sent me the set list and the musical tastes of both grooms and everything.

[windeity]

[He's very excited!!!]

That's awesome! I think it will be really fun. I've only spoken to Sorey a few times and I have never met Mikleo but weddings are nice.

[parodeity]

I've actually never been to one really?
