Because my jokes are all I have!! That and my body. Should I ask questions about my body instead?

[pointedlook]

[ Oh, this is treading dangerous territory. If he starts asking questions about his body, it's going to become pure filth. ]

Fine, sometimes they're more than a little amusing. Though I'll have you know my mom cracked similar jokes while I was growing up so, have fun with that nugget.

[withimagination]

[OH. Well that's... um.]

I'm really, really not having fun with that nugget.

[AHEM.] Did you ever date Ariadne on the Fischer job?

[pointedlook]

I'd apologize for spoiling your fun, but I'm absolutely not sorry.

I took her on dates, but it wasn't dating. Mostly we went to cafes for lunch to get away from the job and talk about her classes. She texted after the job, demanding to know when I was going to buy her baguettes and wine again.

[ Ariadne had gotten close. He considers her a friend and he's fairly sure it goes both ways. ]

[withimagination]

[Oh. UM.]

Hm. Do you think she's romantically attached to you?

[pointedlook]

No, I don't think so.

The Fischer job was hard, she was new to all of it. More than anything, I think she felt overwhelmed and wanted someone to talk to, when she wasn't being scorchingly brilliant making mazes.

[withimagination]

[And he's back. Perking up immediately:] Oh, yes. Very difficult, overwhelming. Understandable.

[pointedlook]

Are...are you feeling ok?

[withimagination]

[A huff. How dare.] I'm fine. I'm being friendly. Agreeing with you. Trying to understand my dear friend, Ariadne.

[pointedlook]

Why am I getting the vibe that isn't the whole story here?

[withimagination]

Because you're not.

[This truth meme sucks.]

[pointedlook]

And? What is the deeper story?

[withimagination]

I'm always curious about your dating life.

[pointedlook]

Isn't the entire dreamshare community in the same boat? It's really not that interesting.

[withimagination]

Pretty much, yeah. [Ignores that second part for as long as possible.]

[pointedlook]

Nosy bunch.

[ though he knows it's because he cultivates an air of mystery by being strictly professional on jobs. ]

[withimagination]

We really are. Difficult to not be nosy, when you're relying on that person to be stable and not get you shot.

[pointedlook]

That's true. I suppose I should've said "gossipy".

I'm glad I've been in this business for a few years, less chance of people poking into my personal life.

[withimagination]

Nothing like a weird spot of honesty to change that between us.

[It is said with sarcasm.]
