Then he's an idiot. [ Tex would know, she is on a team full of them. ]

You know what the big difference is? You might hold hands and make dumb eyes at each other and see if you like each other more than friends. Otherwise, you should be having fun or there's no point in it.

Voice;

[missleadingquestions]

Well, yeah, he's an idiot.

[Duh, mom, he's a boy.]

I-- well! [UUUGH that sounds sappy and gross and like something Pearl would want to watch. It's embarrassing when it's about yourself. Maya decides to not address part of what Tex just said.] I dunno. What've you done on dates before?

Voice;

[failureisntachoice]

[ What have they done on dates before? Most recently was dinner, but before... ]

We've done the usual crap like movies and eating, but we've also done shooting range, paintball, lazer tag... You can find out how much of an ass he is when he's losing. [ Aka she's betting on you, girl. ]

Voice;

[missleadingquestions]

[...Okay, those all sound rad.]

Why weren't those, like, the first things you suggested? That sounds awesome!

[CHASING AROUND PEOPLE WITH FAKE GUNS... Not as cool as fake swords, but whatever.]

Voice;

[failureisntachoice]

Because I didn't think you'd need someone to tell you what to do for fun.

[ Tex is the fun police, not Maya. ]

I SURE LOST THIS TAG

[missleadingquestions]

That's not what I meant when I asked!

[UUUUGH.]

It's not my fault this stuff is apparently complicated.

IT'S FINE

[failureisntachoice]

Who said it was complicated?

[missleadingquestions]

Kaneda's the one who made it complicated. He asked me on a date like-- to make things up to him, but we hang out a lot already so I just figured maybe I had the wrong idea about dates.

[She sounds a little exasperated; she really doesn't like feeling stupid.]

[failureisntachoice]

What the hell does he think dates are?

[missleadingquestions]

I'onno!

[you can hear her voice raise with her shoulders.]

He just said dates and hanging out were different!

[failureisntachoice]

...That's all. He bitched about how they were different but didn't say how.

Do you need me to talk to him?

[missleadingquestions]

Do you mean talk or scare the life out of him?

Cos if you're gonna do the second, you're gonna have to wait until I'm around to watch.

[failureisntachoice]

Call it a prelude to scaring the shit out of him. I need to know what I'm working with.

[missleadingquestions]

Well, I'm not gonna tell you not to talk to 'im.

[failureisntachoice]

Got a number I can reach him at?

[missleadingquestions]

Sure do.

[she's snickering as she relays the number. God, this is gonna be good.]

[failureisntachoice]

I'll drop him a line and make sure he gets back to you in one piece.

[missleadingquestions]

You're the best!

[failureisntachoice]

I know.
