[ VERY (mock) SERIOUSLY ]

I don't care how much you like her or how complicated things are, I get to taste the ice cream first.

[beathach]

[. . . he. He forces a half-grin]

You have my word. You get the first taste.

[takingkarabusiness]

Come here.

[ come here. she's going to offer him a hug because they're cool bros who are cool and bros and can hug without weirdness ]

[beathach]

[hugs are totally not any more awkward than they were before, no lie]

[takingkarabusiness]

[ squeezes his arm as she releases the hug ]

I really do appreciate you telling me.

[beathach]

[he smiles briefly]

I know. I'm just - glad you still want to be friends.

[takingkarabusiness]

Of course. You're a great person, Hank.

But I should probably stop distracting you. I came over to say hi, but I also wanted to ask Kate some cooking questions before dinner so I'll probably nose around a bit to see where she is.

[beathach]

[boy does he know an excuse when he sees one. But he smiles again and nods, because he's certainly not going to make her stay]

Yeah - of course, I'm sure she's around somewhere. I'll see you later?

[takingkarabusiness]

I'll see you later.

And don't be afraid to start more conversations, okay?

[beathach]

I won't. I promise.

[he means it, too]

[takingkarabusiness]

Good.

[ and she'll take her exit. and maybe try to find Kate, or maybe try to crawl into a hole and hide for a week ]
