[restitui]

Sure.

[ he'll take the pear amused, not particularly bothered. ]

How about we make a game of this? Someone gets to ask whatever question they want - any question - and the other person has to answer. If they decide it's too embarrassing to answer or they do not want to for non-caveat reasons they incur a penalty.

Caveat reasons being that it'd cause too many bad big feelings? And they just say pass, but no cheating.

[tilts his head]

You're on. Got any ideas for the penalty?

Re: 250 - evening / night

[restitui]

- I think you can guess.

Re: 250 - evening / night

[heartlands]

You should say it anyways.

Re: 250 - evening / night

[restitui]

Every penalty incurs one nice thing being said about you, no interruptions or denials allowed.

Unless you have a better one?

Re: 250 - evening / night

[heartlands]

Acceptable.

You wanna go first?

Re: 250 - evening / night

[restitui]

Sure.

My question is please finish the question from before? I'm pretty sure it's not as big feels as you think.

Re: 250 - evening / night

[heartlands]

Oh. Um, it was literally just going to be "do you want to talk about it".

Re: 250 - evening / night

[restitui]

Oh.

There's nothing to talk about. Which isn't avoiding the question - more of I can't change what happened? I write stuff done so I won't forget and I try to make the most of every moment I have to make up for it.

- do you want me to take a do over?

Re: 250 - evening / night

[heartlands]

Nah. No do over needed.

[another hand squeeze]

Re: 250 - evening / night

[restitui]

Okay, good.

[ sits back up to grab a piece of good and nudge him ]

Then that makes it your turn.

Re: 250 - evening / night

[heartlands]

—Does it? I asked you a question last.

Re: 250 - evening / night

[restitui]

Technically your question came from me asking to hear the question, in my ploy to get it out of you.

[ teasingly but he doesn't linger ]

Okay, then, what's your favorite present you've ever gotten?

Re: 250 - evening / night

[heartlands]

[snorts]

That's an easy one. The bracelet you gave me.

Re: 250 - evening / night

[restitui]

[ blinks ]

Really?

Re: 250 - evening / night

[heartlands]

Is it surprising?

Re: 250 - evening / night

[restitui]

A little.

[ delicately decides not to ask further - ]

But it's nice to know it's that important to you.

Re: 250 - evening / night

[heartlands]

It's nice to know what you're thinking. I mean - not that I think you're dishonest about that or anything, but you get it.

Re: 250 - evening / night

[restitui]

[ ducks his head sheepishly a bit squeezing his hand! ]

You'll have to tell me if I'm ever too loud or something, then.



That also makes it your turn.

Re: 250 - evening / night

[heartlands]

I promise you won't ever be.

[thinking for a moment]

First thing you want to do when we get off the boat?

Re: 250 - evening / night

[restitui]

[ looks amused: ]

Take you on a real date? Not that our dates haven't been real, but you know what I mean.

Re: 250 - evening / night

[heartlands]

Sappy...

[but he grins either way]

Re: 250 - evening / night

[restitui]

[ Laughs and leans forward to give him a quick kiss: ]

You asked.

Non-sappy, but just as sappy answer: Something super mundane like walking through the mall and window shopping? Do some people watching while eating a freshly made pretzel or something.

Re: 250 - evening / night

[heartlands]

[kisses him back quickly]

Sounds fun. Just enjoying being able to do stuff we couldn't do here's gonna be nice.

Re: 250 - evening / night

[restitui]

Yeah. Like I really miss my old walking route with Speedy? There's people you see everyday and don't realize how much you missed saying 'hi' to them in passing or seeing how their flowers were doing as you passed.
