I mean - I don't think anybody has called me brave before. Mostly people say I worry too much. So, thanks.
I'm going to be so arrogant... I feel it starting now...
It's not too late to avoid this as long as no more compliments happen.
You'd just pick something else anyways. Stop being so nice.
I only want to meet them if you think it would help you out. If you think it would just make things more complicated or overwhelming, I don't mind at all just listening to you vent.
[gives a hand squeeze in return]
And keep in mind you can say no to dinner with them whenever if it's too much.

... I want you to meet them, too? Especially him. You're just as important to me and - You'll say it won't sound stupid, but it kind of sounds stupid. A reminder there are a lot of important things to me in the life I have now in the middle of it is nice?
[ smiles softly, ducking his head. ]
I kind of already have been. Aside from the first meeting - but it's starting to feel like running.

Nooooo, it's not stupid. I promise. And I'd be glad to meet them whenever you want.
[shakes his head]
I don't think keeping your own limits in mind is the same as running. You know?

One of them you might meet rather we mean to or not since he goes to our school now. [ which is an impossibly weird feeling. he pulls out his phone with a glance at it. ] How about in a little while - if you're free?
Also, no, it's so kind of running when your first thought is "maybe I'll be back on ship tomorrow and I won't have to face it".

I don't have work this afternoon, so - in a little while works.
[bumps against him a little]
At the very least, if you need a break while we're there, I can pretend something came up and we can bail. Fair compromise?

If you're sure. We can get ice cream or something after? My treat.
[ huffs a tiny laugh at the bumping but otherwise looks appreciative when gingham speaks. leaning down to press a quick kiss to his cheek. ]
Fair. And in case I haven't reminded you lately: You're amazing and I love you.

I'll never say no to either hanging out or ice cream.
[shifting a little to kiss his cheek]
I love you, too. [teasing:] And I guess you're pretty cool.
