post dance

[afflatusexarch]

I hardly know how to start but about the dance

[activatingcombatmode]

Raha? Yeah? What's up?

[afflatusexarch]

I want to tell you

You see I was

What I mean to say is

This is turning out to be harder than I anticipated. The other evening I wanted to state how much fun I had but on the other hand I am horribly embarrassed by my actions. Not that I wouldn't actually enjoy another dance in the future. Most certainly your company made my night. Yet at the same time I am not sure why I was so forward with physical affections that are usually more reserved for people whom one would feel at ease with.

Which I suppose I do. Feel at ease with you. That's not in question. Still, the whole affair tied up a considerable portion of your night and I would be remiss not to apologize for that and for likely making nothing short of a fool of myself.

[ He hits send but Zack you better do something because there are those three dots blinking, indicating that he is still typing ]

[activatingcombatmode]

[Whoa, whoa whoa- This is a lot of words???]

Raha. Hey. Slow down for a second. I can't text as fast as your brain is thinking right now.

[afflatusexarch]

Apologies. I fear it would have been far worse had I called.

[activatingcombatmode]

Let's just start with one thing at a time. You had fun that night?

[afflatusexarch]

[ One thing at a time. He can do that! ]

Yes. Likely one of my most memorable ones.

[activatingcombatmode]

Same here, I had a blast. There's nothing wrong with that? What's so embarrassing.

[afflatusexarch]

Where to start -

The tail doing what it does. I believe I was ah. Making certain.

Sounds.

Or rather.

A sound.

[activatingcombatmode]

You mean the purring? I thought it was cute.

[afflatusexarch]

It isn't something that should

Cute.

You thought. It was. Cute.

[activatingcombatmode]

Yeah I did.

I'm not an expert or anything but I'm pretty sure that does mean you really were at ease with me. And I felt the same way too. It did something to my brain. I like it.

[afflatusexarch]

You

Liked it.

All of it?

[activatingcombatmode]

You know, you sure have this habit of being surprised when I say stuff like this.

[afflatusexarch]

It's surprising! You can't blame me for that.

How would you act if someone was flattering you?

[activatingcombatmode]

[Cute.]

I think I'd believe it if they wanted to flatter me in the first place.

Which means. I mean every word I said. The dance was fun and I don't mind that you purred and wanted to get closer. As long as you're okay with it, I am too. If I had to do it all again I'd waste my night with you just like that a second time.

[afflatusexarch]

Hmm. It was a silly question. Chances are you've been told numerous times exactly what others think of your looks.

This is entirely new territory for me. Thus I am not sure how I am going to be. We at least share the same sentiment. I, too, would do it over again.

[activatingcombatmode]

Haha, I say that but I don't get much of that. Honestly.

[See how that works?! And besides, it's usually Zack who does the flattering. That's fine.]

But that's great. Then don't worry about it, nothing about that night was something you should feel stupid for.

Anyway, if you need me to. I'll slow down?

[afflatusexarch]

Please. I have two functional eyes. Surely others do as well.

[ Nah. He doesn't believe it. Try again Zack.

But something that had been fluttering about in his chest settles. He shouldn't feel stupid. It's fine. Nothing done had been an embarrassment. ]

As for the rest, I am not sure. Not so many are fortunate to receive another chance at living. I think I just want to see how to simply enjoy it instead of dread it.

Mayhap I don't wish to miss out on something because I was too hesitant.

[activatingcombatmode]

[Oh, G'raha got him.]

Alright. What would you say about me after looking at me with your two functional eyes?

And that's fair too. I don't want to push but I wouldn't mind spending time with you. Whatever direction it goes, it's better that we enjoyed it than never even giving it a shot.

So I still have that date, right?

[afflatusexarch]

Come now. You would not have the confidence you do if you were not aware of your own attractiveness.

I do feel comforted, knowing we are on the same page. Which would mean that yes, we are still going to have that date.

If you wish for it.

[activatingcombatmode]

So you do think I'm attractive.

[Justtt checking.]

And yeah. I'm still up for that date.

[afflatusexarch]

Smug creature. Though it isn't as though that statement is untrue.

[ Zack has no idea how red Raha is in the face at the moment. ]

Then I will leave you be for the moment, shall I?

[activatingcombatmode]

Well, I'm glad you think so. Thanks.

[Nailllled it.]

Yeah. Sure, I'll talk to you soon once I've planned out the details. Keep your calender open for me.
