[ He's unnaturally pale, even in the dim lighting of the car he's currently sitting in. (How did he get the car, you ask? Well, perhaps he 'borrowed' it from a dealership...) The car appears to be at a stop, no other sounds to be heard outside of it. ]

So, what are the high schools like around here? [ There's a grin on his lips, his golden orbs eyes shining from the light in the car. ]

[ they are well past talking about twilight shipping at this point, and pretty much into how much kanaya projects onto it. the slight increase in her glow indicates this before even she does ]

Well, I...suppose. But divulging such things can be terribly difficult, I think.

[sweetvalleygirl]

All it takes is a little confidence. Sometimes you have to be brave and just take the chance.

[glowsferatu]

I've tried more recently! But the reactions can be so varied, and none of them exactly as desired.

[ wait wait no ] N-not that we're discussing myself, of course!

[sweetvalleygirl]

[eyebrow raise]

Of course not.

But how do you know you won't get the reaction you want?

[glowsferatu]

At times you can predict from what you know of them how they'll react. And additionally using the reactions you've already been given thus far.

[sweetvalleygirl]

But people can surprise you. They can say no a hundred times and then one day decide to say yes.

[glowsferatu]

I'd hate to be so obnoxious as to continually press such a subject. Especially when I haven't received an explicit no.

[sweetvalleygirl]

If they haven't said no, there's still a chance!

[glowsferatu]

Well, I wouldn't want to ruin it by fussing over it excessively! People tend not to like that.

[sweetvalleygirl]

So you're just going to be quiet and pine away all alone?

[glowsferatu]

Well, I mean, uh... [ yeah so maybe a little ]

I've already disclosed my feelings on the subject. At this point, any progression is out of my hands, having been passed to hers.

[sweetvalleygirl]

In the romantic aspect, sure. But you can still do stuff together in the mean time. You can go to movies and bowling and stuff and it can be like a pseudo-date!

[glowsferatu]

I don't think I could tolerate repeating such a pattern again.

[sweetvalleygirl]

Okay. If you say so.

[glowsferatu]

I apologize for fussing, it's just a somewhat frustrating topic.

[sweetvalleygirl]

Oh no, dude. I get it. Love is fun and frustrating. But you'll figure it out. And so will she.

[glowsferatu]

I do hope you're right, Jessica, as I'm not sure how long I can tolerate matters being as they are.
