Dandies across time

Who: Biffy and Lance
Broadcast: No
Action: Biffy's Shop
When: Very start of September

[It's been a few days since the end of Biffy's glitch and he's been needing to get all of his things in order. Make sure matters are attended to at his shop, see to it that his Communications duties are settled. However, when all of it is done, he sends a message to Lance to invite him to come to his shop.

Because he feels that he should share his story with him. Lance has shared his heart and it just seems right to share his own. Lance has been a more dear friend to him in ways no one else has been able to for many years now. He wants to make sure that they're able to continue that relationship. Keep it going strong honestly.

So the tea is ready and when Lance arrives he smiles at him before waving for him to come sit. He's even brought a couple chairs and a table in here this time. To give them a comfortable space while they talk.]

Come in. I'll just make sure it's clear I'm closed so we can just spend some time together. Please help yourself to the tea. There are biscuits in the tin there.

[He's British, Lance. Biscuits will mean cookies.]

[He gets a grin on his face that shows just how much he's enjoying this now.]

Yes? Am I wrong?

[the_tailor]

I guess not, but still!

[What did he do to deserve such another amazing friend?]

[dandyofawolf]

But still nothing. You are much like a little brother to me. It is clearly my duty to see to it that you have every tool you need to face the world.

[the_tailor]

Thank you, Biffy. I mean it.

[He really does like being the little brother again sometimes.]

[dandyofawolf]

You can thank me by just being happy. I can't possibly ask for more than that.

[He laughs softly and then offers him more tea.]

Also, for your friends, I know that what you went through was difficult but things will get better. Just remember that I believe in you no matter what. Even when things may seem hard.

[the_tailor]

I'll remember that. It...really does mean a lot, to have someone who's not obligated to try to like me at all actually care for me like this.

[He happily takes the tea, sipping at it.]

[dandyofawolf]

You know, if you think about it, no one is actually obligated to try to like anyone. The fact that people do like us shows us that no matter what there are people out there to love us for exactly who we are.

[the_tailor]

I mean, I get that, but with Team Voltron... It's like, we can only form Voltron when we're connected. And if one of us hates the other, it's not gonna work. So the others sort of have to like me in order for us to be able to actually fight this war.

[He drums his fingertips against the cup.]

I don't distrust them or anything, but when I really get in a mood, sometimes I wonder if they're making themselves like me because of Voltron, and only just tolerating me. I know it's ridiculously silly to think that, I mean, heck, Keith and I are dating and I don't doubt him, but it still pops into my mind sometimes.

[dandyofawolf]

[There's a small sigh and a smile.]

I may not fully understand everything you are talking about but I can say this. I understand what it is like to suddenly have to find a way to get close to a group of people. To have to because there's no other choice in the matter.

[It's what happened when he became a werewolf.]

And even then I can still say that no one is obligated to try to like anyone. It's good that all of you have managed it but none of you had to do that.
