maybe not right now

[ which, of course, implies eventually, but... he's got such real shit going on that it might be better to avoid dragging roxy into his problems for now.

but if not soon, when? ]

why?

[ he is not going to let a conversation about roxy turn into a hint toward his alter ego, so! time to bullshit. ]

i'm kind of new at this whole thing

[ which is not untrue... but it's far from the actual reason. ]

yeah a lot of people tend to be new at stuff they've never tried look whenever you're ready you're ready i think we both agree that roxy is pretty awesome so don't keep her waiting forever, you know? i need new earrings

[ D: ]

okay, okay

i'll think about it

don't punish me for my hesitation plz

of all the things i could punish you for, that's about the middle of the list

[ is she kidding?? ]

make sure you stop by the apartment sometime, okay? or drop in on souzai steakhouse i'll hook you up, my treat i want to see roxy's excellent taste in person

[ he is pretty sure she's not kidding. ]

yeah no problem

i'll wear my nicest clothes and maybe even brush my hair

anything for free food

[ even if the price, really, for his meal, is making a good impression on ino—with no family around, meeting roxy's roommate seems to be the best equivalent of meeting the parents to be managed.

what a step. ]
