yeah. you were. which means you will be able to again whenever he comes back. that is a little exciting, isn't it? ...i can come up if you want, or we can keep talking like this.
[And true to his word, he heads up the stairs and into his own room to find Dave, immediately gravitating to his side. He doesn't quite touch him yet in case that's not a thing he wants, but he's open to it anyway.]
[ honesty clauses mean dave can't just play it off and pretend nothing's different or wrong without breaking his word. so he stows his laptop in his sylladex after john's message and when john comes in he just reaches out for john's sleeve, going to tug him down to the bed. ]
[It's different than when Vriska left, he thinks, because Dirk and Dave had a better relationship and also that was prior to his own friendship with Dave changing. So yeah. He settles to hug him tightly since Dave responds to that kind of thing and also he has no idea what he's supposed to say.]
Dirk was red, right? So things with red undertones probably. Maybe some food. Anything in his house. Things like that.
[The dating thing can definitely wait. He's focused on securing Dave and letting him think.]
I cannot say I would mind so much if they did. They're just tomatoes. [But...hm. A hand comes up to pet Dave's hair.] It'll be something obvious. Or Dirk-like. Maybe a fish.
Hm...what do you mean? Like you see where something could go and what something could be and you wish you could have it even if you don't know for sure how it'll go?
...I don't know. Getting along with my dad better? [Which isn't a huge thing. Dave knows John's relationship with his father was maybe the healthiest of the Betas, but it's still worth noting it is a thing he thinks about.]

Hey. We should talk to Jake maybe.
no subject
Yeah. We maybe should. But that can probably wait?
no subject
Maybe it can wait until tomorrow or later, yeah. [ there's a small pause. ] What colors do you think will disappear?

this maybe takes priority for a second and dave hadn't known what to say when vriska left so maybe they're even. a tight hug seems to help, though. ]
Should we make a bet on whether or not tomatoes bite the dust again?
