[ ring ring ring ring ring ring ring... bananaphone! ]

[trickshot]

_{( the first part is cut off because he's bad at using his phone. )}

--llo?

[bests]

Bobbi's noticed you acting weird.

[ no hello, just quiet amusement. ]

[trickshot]

I'm not acting weird!

[bests]

Oh, really?

[trickshot]

Yeah. Really.


....what'd she say, exactly?

[bests]

Just that you were acting stranger than normal, and that everything else in life was more or less business as usual.

[trickshot]

That's not nearly as bad as I thought. Plus, she always thinks I act strange.

[bests]

True. But I have to ask, are you acting strange for the reasons I think you're acing strange?

[trickshot]

No.

Yes.

Maybe?

[bests]

Have you figured out if-or-when you're going to ask her?

[trickshot]

I have to pick my moment.

[bests]

Would you rather it be spontaneous or planned?

[trickshot]

I dunno. Usually we just do things when we want to--that's us. But that's also what causes trouble, maybe.

[bests]

Then maybe you should plan something this time.

[trickshot]

Isn't that kind of cheesy, thought? You're a girl, right--does the rose petals and champagne thing actually work?

[bests]

I don't know. Maybe. It's not the same, but I've liked the occasional classically romantic moment with Peter.

But I think--I think it's the moments that are unique to you that make everything better. You can plan something and still have it be you and not something out of a romance novel.

damn there is an extra t in that last tag /shakes fist

[trickshot]

When you put it like that it's gonna end up with me shooting an apple off her head.

i didn't even notice lkasjdf

[bests]

I said you, not William Tell.

oh well in that case

[trickshot]

He only did it once. Me and Bobbi've done it a million times.

[bests]

You're hopeless.

[trickshot]

...probably.

[bests]

But she loves you, so you've at least got that going for you.

[trickshot]

It's a pretty sweet deal, actually.

[bests]

Is it?
