I'll just take your word for it. Do you not like this person or something, to set them up with me of all people?

[cache_coeur]

Obviously! Everyone knows the best punishment for despicable people is to set them up with my intelligent, witty, hard-working, beautiful friend.

[trebuchim]

You know what I mean. I can easily talk about chroma diffraction in inverted pictos or the bioluminescence of the native flora of the Continent or nature vs. nurture in Gestrals for hours. Not so much those casual, getting to know you conversations.

[cache_coeur]

I know! I promise I took that into account.

[trebuchim]

How? Is it someone I already know? [ danger! ]

[cache_coeur]

I don’t know everyone you know, maybe you met at some point when I wasn’t looking! But surely you’ve noticed this place is crawling with academics?

[trebuchim]

Should have known I wouldn't get a straight answer out of you when you're determined to hold onto your surprises.

[cache_coeur]

You'll have your answer, don't worry. Just enjoy yourself. No pressure.

[trebuchim]

Lot of pressure, actually! But I promise to do my best.

[cache_coeur]

Knew you would. What's the pressure? It shouldn't be pressure!

[trebuchim]

All of it? I don't want to be a bad date.

[cache_coeur]

What would make it a bad date?

[trebuchim]

[ There are many answers to that and they all revolve around Lune's own perceived flaws, but they're hard to verbalize and Sciel probably wouldn't have any of it, anyway. ]

Garlic bread is out, I guess.

[cache_coeur]

I think that’s fair. You usually have impeccable grooming, though.

[trebuchim]

Thanks. I promise to comb my hair and everything.
