i'm not going to pass out

also i love you too

[lapidarius]

Glad to hear it. Try leading with that next time instead of 'oh' and furious backpedaling, you might manage to surprise me.

But that was pretty cute, too.

[starmark]

i know i should've been smooth but i fucked it up

i just liked how it felt and forgot to say it back fast enough

[lapidarius]

There aren't any criteria for how quickly one needs to respond to that. If there are, I wasn't timing it.

[starmark]

you're really cute.

[lapidarius]

So are you. Are we making it a competition?

[starmark]

no, i don't want it to be one.

i just want to make you feel as good as it made me feel, somehow.

[lapidarius]

I can honestly say that you don't have to try very hard to accomplish that.

[starmark]

...

so you really liked me with ears and a tail, huh

[lapidarius]

I think they looked pretty good on you, actually.

[starmark]

maybe giorno can give them to me again sometime

if you ask or something

[lapidarius]

I wouldn't push it quite that far. I don't know if he could get rid of them again, and you might have a rough time going around like that forever.

[starmark]

you'll just have to suffer without then, i guess

[lapidarius]

I wouldn't quite call it suffering. Actually, I'm pretty happy with this arrangement.

[starmark]

...i don't get it

so you think it's cute, but then you don't want it?

[lapidarius]

I think it's cute. I just also think you're cute on your own. So either way, I win.

[is that how this works...]

[starmark]

that's not very helpful, when i'm trying to figure out what you like so that i can give it to you more often

[lapidarius]

I like you. I like this dumb little back-and-forth thing we do once in a while, and I also like when you're straightforward about what you're thinking or feeling.

[starmark]

oh.

i didn't think it was back and forth.

i thought it was you telling me things and then me trying to figure out how to do more of them and then you going oh no i don't really want them after all.

and then i'd get confused.

so i guess that...makes a lot more sense now.

[lapidarius]

Sorry. I've never been any good at this myself, so I think I should have been clearer about that. I was trying to tell you that I think you're cute either way, that's all.

I'm not trying to confuse you. I'm just working on figuring this out as I go along.

[starmark]

maybe we should start pretending we're talking about sumo

except that it's actually romance

romance sumo

sumance

[lapidarius]

i mean

i could probably try the whole 'thinly veiled flirting' approach, that might be fun

but you would probably have to not be expecting it for that to work, right

[starmark]

no try it

i want to see you flirt with me

try it right now

1/4

[lapidarius]

i can't just flirt on command like that are you kidding

[lapidarius]

uh
