[parodeity]

I mean. [ like. ] I would have liked you kissing me but that is admittedly better when I know where you are about it?

[windeity]

Well. Mystery solved, I would be totally down with making out with you in a supply closet. You only put limits on the bed.

[Casually eating his steak...whatever.]

[parodeity]

Yeah, well, there are reasons for that??

[windeity]

I know. You've told me about those reasons and I respect them. But are those going to apply in our own place, too?

[parodeity]

...Maybe? [ he's biting his lip instead of his food. ] We can discuss it when we like have a place?

[windeity]

Yeah. Sure. [The rest of his steak's gone and he's onto his own potato.] Uh. I told Rose we were moving in together by the way. So just a heads up.

[parodeity]

Oh, a'ight. I haven't mentioned that to anyone, I guess since like we're still...looking?

[ but he apparently has no objections to rose knowing.

mostly. he makes a face. ]

I hope this doesn't mean more buzzfeed tests.

[windeity]

Still looking but I also did not see any reason not to. [Shrug.] More than likely it will though. But then again nothing is stopping us from not taking them.

[parodeity]

You know that neither of us is ever gonna fail to take those dumb tests.

[windeity]

They are actually kind of fun? But I also just really wanted pancakes after that.

[parodeity]

You know I'm like...excited, right.

[windeity]

[A grin.] Yeah. I mean I am glad because I like knowing you're excited, too, but...yeah. It's something to really look forward to.

[parodeity]

And I am. I just...yeah, I didn't think to mention it, since we don't have a place yet, so, like. I don't want you to think I was avoiding it?

[windeity]

[He's reaching across the table for one of Dave's free hands.] It came up pretty much out of nowhere. I do not expect you to actually tell people or anything and I'm not taking it as an interest check. I love you, so like...I figured if you really were not into it you'd tell me.

[parodeity]

I am not into havin' a Matthew Mcwhatever shrine in our bedroom.

[ IT'S THE ONLY NO TO COME TO MIND... ]

[windeity]

Oh my god I don't even have his posters up in our room now? The one I do have has a giant hole in the forehead for some reason.

[parodeity]

[ a grin. ] I panicked and couldn't think of anything else?

[windeity]

Dork. [He shakes his head.] No McConaughey in our bedroom. Hey. Finish your food and I'll make it worth your while?

[parodeity]

Oooh, tempting. [ but he will shut up and eat his meal, actually.

and snag his shoe back, so. ]

[windeity]

[By the time they finish eating and getting Dave's shoe back the bill comes and John immediately sends it away with his credit card so Dave doesn't bother seeing it. Once that's taken care of he settles for looking at Dave again.]

So we have a couple of choices here. How artistic and hands-on are you feeling today?

[parodeity]

Pretty much however artistic and hands-on as you wanna go? [ he has no idea what john has in mind. ] I pay for the next stop, though?

[windeity]

How do you feel about the need to potentially dryclean your suit? Also shut up, I am paying for belated Valentine's Day. Especially if you have something for me.

[Like John forgot the present.]

[parodeity]

[ ...the slightest grimace. ] I can deal, or we can change? But yeah, whatever works. [ it's a nice suit :[ ] Also, I didn't, like, spend money on it, so...?

[windeity]

...we can just roll up our sleeves. [He likes Dave in a suit =\] And so what? I did not spend money on the stuff I have for you either. When has money ever mattered here?

[parodeity]

Pottery? [ ...also he flicks john's forehead. ] Just...you know, let me spoil you sometimes too.
