Cool. [Nervous, nevertheless, but cool.] So...later, I do want to actually make you dinner. We'll have to leave bed eventually.

[parodeity]

[ he just ruffles john’s hair. ] Sure. Eventually is the key word.

[windeity]

Eventually. [Mumbled into Dave's shoulder.] Why the fuck do you smell good still? We just woke up like an hour ago.

[parodeity]

Showered last night?

[windeity]

[He's grumbling and still burrowing, don't mind him. He does turn up the volume on the TV a little but otherwise he's still under the blankets.]

...thoughts on Christmas so far?

[parodeity]

[ he’s quiet for a little, considering. ]

One of the best yet.

[windeity]

...sweet. [He seems pretty relieved about that and he settles against Dave's side further, letting himself fully relax.] Me too.

[parodeity]

Really? [ that’s somehow more surprising. ] Well...good.

[windeity]

Good about sums it up. [He's turned his head at least so he can keep his face half in Dave's shoulder and half facing the TV.] And we can do the other parts of Christmas later. It was just dumb stuff, it can be whenever.

[parodeity]

You're making me curious.

[windeity]

Ice skating. And painting the snow because it would look kind of cool and the pottery place is closed right now. Nothing big.

[parodeity]

...That sounds cool but also cold. I'm nixing it until it isn't the morning. [ and if john is going to bury his face in dave's shoulder or whatever dave will just rest his cheek on the top of john's head. ]

[windeity]

[A good Dave. He's perfectly fine like this, apparently.] If the snow stops in the afternoon we can go out then. Sound good?

[parodeity]

It’s a date. [ just let him be drowsy and warm until then. ]

[windeity]

Good. [To be honest they'll both probably fall asleep before that point and wake up later, but that's whatever.]

...speaking of dates. We get our first real one in January, right?

[parodeity]

The second is a Tuesday, so yeah?

[windeity]

Cool. It’ll be good...do you have anything you specifically want for our first?

[parodeity]

Why don’t we pick together? I mean. We each planned a ton of holiday shit so - although you like to plan things. But I didn’t care really as long as it was with you. Dinner and a movie out or in or whatever the fuck. [ ...wait is it bad if he doesn’t have a more elaborate answer ] Um.

[windeity]

As much as I liked planning Christmas and as excited as I am for New Years, I think a lowkey first date sounds really nice. Do I get to pick the movie here? [He doesn't care because it's Dave but whatever.]

[parodeity]

You can pick if it’s out to the theater. [ which means mostly new movies ]

[windeity]

Too bad there isn't a different movie theater than Flix in town. Somehow going to work on our first date is less than sexy.

[parodeity]

Want to do something else, then?

[windeity]

I'll think about it. On the one hand, if we go out we can get snacks and see something new. On the other hand, if we stay in we can be comfortable like this. [He's closing his eyes.] I will think about it.

[parodeity]

Whatever you like, babe. Go back to sleep.

[windeity]

Mm. Sorry I am being lame and falling asleep again. [Not that that will stop him.]
