Because friends do fun things together! That's one of the joys of being alive!

[Presumably.]

We could do anything you want!

[hairrowing]

Hmmmm....eating again could be nice. Uh, going to a movie?

[look it isn't that he doesn't do Fun he's just....been busy and not thinking about it lately]

[gunslingerqueen]

[He does not do Fun and it is written over all over the suggestions but -]

Let's do both! [She's really not any better.] What kind of movies do you like?

[hairrowing]

You want to? [well it could be a lot] I like...adventure movies. What about you?

[gunslingerqueen]

Considering that I enjoy spending time with you: Yes!

[There's some brightening with his answer, though its dimmer than usual, just a sign of that exhaustion.]

Same, actually! Oh, and horror movies, and thrillers, and mysteries, too! I'm sort of relieved you didn't say a comedy because I don't know that I could put myself through that.

[hairrowing]

Do I look like the kind of guy who cracks up at comedy movies?

[he raises a brow at her]

[gunslingerqueen]

Do I look like the kind of person who watches gory horror movies?

[Eyebrow waggling: commenced!]

[hairrowing]

Yes.

[just straight up]

[gunslingerqueen]

What?!

[He's fucking with her!!!!!]

[hairrowing]

[just looks at her solemnly]

[gunslingerqueen]

I really thought I gave off a cuter air than that ...

[Pout, pout, pout.]

Ugh, so I didn't even get to surprise you!

[hairrowing]

You forget while I haven't seen you at your wildest, I've seen some of it.

[but he's chuckling-- softly, so softly]

Too bad.

[gunslingerqueen]

[POUTING!!!! God, this is why she doesn't have a boyfriend, isn't it?! Well, not actually, but it is the first thought that crosses her mind. The second is that getting a laugh out of him was kind of the next best thing.]

Fine, whatever, we're gonna watch an incredibly cool adventure movie and have something really cool for dinner!

[hairrowing]

Fine, fine, whatever you say. You're in charge.

[gunslingerqueen]

But, you wouldn't get involved with anything you didn't want to do, right?

[Look, she's lovingly forceful, not inconsiderate!!]

[hairrowing]

No, not really. I don't think you'd decide on something unpleasant.

[gunslingerqueen]

Good.

[There's a palpable sense of relief.]

Then, yes, I am definitely in charge!

[hairrowing]

You absolutely are. [said easy and definitely not humoring her]

[gunslingerqueen]

See, now if only multiple people in my previous life could have been as easygoing about this as you are!

[Hah.]

[hairrowing]

Well....maybe some day. It could happen. But if not, you're good at making friends with people.

[gunslingerqueen]

["Someday", yeah, about that ... Well. Anyway.]

So are you, honestly! And you're a very good listener, and gentle!

[hairrowing]

Me? [and now he looks bewildered at that possibility] Not at all.

[gunslingerqueen]

Who was in charge, again?

[Technically her domain is activities, probably? But no one tell her that, clearly Nariko is correct, all of the time.]

[hairrowing]

You are...?

[he pauses, raises a brow at her]

[gunslingerqueen]

I am!

[That might as well have been a cheer as they turn down the street.]

Which means I'm one-thousand percent correct! Besides, [She tilts her head at him a bit.] is it really so bad to be considered those things by a friend?
