So how does a night out on the 18th sound?

text | un: j.lyman; backdated to after their date, still lovey dovey

[hardballsy]

Hey, Bennett. :)

I had a really nice time with you. I think we should do that again.

If you want to, of course.

(I hope you want to.)

AND NOW VOICE, YOU KNOW WHO IT IS

[hardballsy]

[So.

The doves are gone. Josh is back to his normal self.

And he's been thinking. About his date with Bennett, and about how he said he wanted to do it again, and about how they held hands, and about how cute she is, and about how he really, probably shouldn't get romantically involved with a demon, given his position here, but —

And —

What he's really wondering is how much of those feelings were bird-induced and how much of it was him genuinely liking her, even just as a person and potential friend. Because what if the doves got her, too? What if neither of them were their True Selves that night, and all those days after?

There's only one way to find out.

Ring ring, Bennett.]

[Josh has spent more hours than there are in a day trying to figure out how the here to gently frame what it is he needs to talk to Bennett about.

And he's come up with absolutely nothing other than the straight truth.

— well.

The not-completely-straight truth.

Which is a thought that almost strikes him as funny, except he's too nervous to find anything funny at the moment. Even that.]

Hi.

[ Why hello again, Bennet. Here's that familiar hoarse, too-loud voice. ]

You're not my first choice, but I'm running out of options.

[ What with, you know, the whole torture thing, although he did literally ask for that one. With that out of the way, he's going to get to the actual point. ]

You were splendid with the GPS device. I've got something new I need built. Let me know if you're interested.
