[ordinar]

Excited, I guess? Happy?

It just felt right, you know?

[itookashot]

Yeah, I know.

[ He's not still hurting about Wylan, nope. ]

You should ask him out on a date, see how things go.

[ordinar]

[If he knew that Wylan was gone, that Jesper was hurting, he might tread more lightly. But...he doesn't know, and he's caught up in the whirlwind of giddiness that comes with a first kiss.]

Yeah, we haven't really had a chance to talk about like...what we're doing.

[itookashot]

Pigeon, I thought I taught you well about the importance of communication in a relationship.

[ordinar]

I know, I know. I'll see if he wants to go on a date. We'll talk about it.

I'm not in a rush.

[itookashot]

A date would be good. While I obviously love tumbling someone into bed without needing to talk much first, that's not your way. You still have a lot to learn about each other.

[ordinar]

[There's a longer pause before his next reply.]

What if...he only wants it to be casual?

[itookashot]

Then you'll talk that out too. Establish some ground rules if you're into it. Or say that you don't if you don't.

[ordinar]

I'm just tired of getting my hopes up. I want this to mean something to both of us.

[itookashot]

That's when that whole "communication" thing would really come in handy.

Just don't rush it. Maybe he's someone who needs to take it slow and figure it out as you go. There's nothing wrong with that.

[ordinar]

No, there isn't. I'd be a huge hypocrite if I got frustrated with him over that.

[itookashot]

Exactly. Try not to overthink it. At least he kissed you back, that's the important piece.

[ordinar]

Ok, no overthinking. And I'll talk to him SOON.

If this goes well

I'm grateful for everything you've done for me, Jes. I mean it.

[itookashot]

You're my friend, Wille, I love you. It's going to be alright, if he has half a head of sense he'll feel the sam eway.

[ordinar]

No, I meant...I'm grateful for your advice, and for always supporting me, but it's not just that.

You helped me be more comfortable with myself.

[itookashot]

I'm glad, because who you are is someone wonderful, and you should be comfortable with that fellow.

Although I do like how anyone impressed with your sexual prowess from now on will owe me a thank you too.

[ordinar]

Should I pass along your mailing address?

[itookashot]

I expect a 'thank you for your service' bottle of wine.
