It can be scary, opening yourself up to something like this. I know. My world is not the worst about it, not when I’m from. But it’s still bad. There’s still hatred and judgement. I kept my certainty to myself for a long time, afraid of what it made me.

I guess what I’m saying is that I get it, and I can absolutely be patient. If it turns out poorly, if you don’t like the whole thing, then we’ll still be friends. This is just trying something, I guess.

[ And for the first time in a solid two hours, Mako relaxes and actually smiles a little at his Fluid, safely in the confines of his incense-filled room. ]

I should've known you would get it. The people I grew up around, you had to be on your guard all the time. If anything could be used against you, it would've been. So. I want to try it. Dinner, when the moon isn't eyes.

Thank you.

[helpdesk_hero]

Wow do I ever get that point. I saw it in so many different ways. Becoming more confident in myself took years, even after I realized I was bi.

Dinner. When the moon isn’t eyes and my apartment has windows again. Sounds like a plan. I’ll figure out something good to make.

Wait, do the ground rules prevent puns? Because while I’m not prone to them making a comment about ‘we’ll see if there are any sparks’ just feels so right.

[arclightning]

If the ground rules prevented puns I get the impression you'd strain something so puns are fair game. You can't say you're not prone to making them. You literally greeted me with a pun.

What does bi mean, in this context?

[helpdesk_hero]

Oh come on, I’m perfectly capable of resisting. And come on, that was a golden opportunity. Not like I called you Sparky or anything.

Bi means Bisexual. Or Biromantic. What I am. Someone for whom gender and sex doesn’t really affect my attraction.

[arclightning]

Okay but you did JUST make that joke anyway. I'm counting it.

I don't think we have that word for it but I'm not an expert on this stuff. At all. That's, uh. That's good to know.

[ He might have to ask Chloe about this. ]

[helpdesk_hero]

I did. I couldn't resist.

It's okay to not have a word for it. But I'm glad you've agreed. I'll set something up when the sky is a bit more normal.

[arclightning]

[ No one will ever understand the sheer bravery and second-guessing it takes for Mako to send these next three words: ]

It's a date.

[helpdesk_hero]

It is?

[He's stupidly excited.]

Awesome!

[arclightning]

Pending giant creepy eyes and blood-water, yeah.

[helpdesk_hero]

I can be patient for my first date in a good long while.
