[ dave, an idiot, is rosy cheeked from both the compliment and the cOLD. texas does not get this cold. this is bullshit??? ] I told you I'm smooth??

[ he's not ]

[windeity]

[He snorts.] Smooth but not exactly subtle. I'll take it though. You went through way more effort than I thought.

[parodeity]

You deserved a good first date? [ like him :( ]

[windeity]

And it was a very good first date, even if it is not over yet. I'll give you the final score at the end. [Teasing, but he's also pretty sure Dave will take him seriously.]

[parodeity]

Do I get any prizes if I get a high score?

[windeity]

Maybe! I will have to think of a really good one. I think I might have a few ideas though.

[parodeity]

I'm definitely gonna win? [ okay he's definitely trying to warm up his arms. fuckin washingtonians ]

[windeity]

You sounds sure but we'll see! [He notices though...dumbass.] ...do you want to head back? It's getting chilly out.

[He says, perfectly fine without a jacket and in Dave's thin long-sleeved shirt.]

[parodeity]

[ dave, meanwhile, was made for lows of 70. :(

he nods quickly. ]

Yeah, sure. I mean, if you're cold.

[ obviously,,, dave is not cold ]

[windeity]

Maybe a little. [He absolutely is not but he acknowledges he has a crush on a dumbass.] We can save the leftovers for later. The potion should still work tomorrow too right?

[parodeity]

According to Shiho the effects'll last for a few days. So if we wanna go hunt for gray normally disgusting food to shove down our throats, now would be the time?

[ but okay. he's rapidly cleaning up thanks to ~sylladex magic~ ]

[windeity]

We can do that maybe another day. [Dave shoves everything in his sylladex and John's up, folding his arms over his chest and waiting patiently.] Back to the house then? For the show.

[Do the thing!!]

[parodeity]

You sure you're ready to be fully feetswept?

[ why is he overhyping it...but clean up done he starts to head back home, waiting for john and then falling into step with him. ]

[windeity]

Can a person truly be ready for that? [He begins to follow, stepping forward to also catch Dave's hand.

May as well make it more date-like, he thinks.]

[parodeity]

[ ...oh. dave squeezes john's hand after a fraction of a startled second, trying to hide the urge to smile like an idiot. ] Not really. It's like the Spanish Inquisition.

[windeity]

[That's very cute, Dave.] Dude do you even know what the Spanish Inquisition was about?

[parodeity]

A thing supposedly meant to fight heresy but it was really just a monarchical tool to smite pretty much whoever the fuck. But I was referring to the meme, obviously. [ not the REAL THING. ]

[windeity]

I was just checking. [God why did he ask? Off to the house.] Anyway, like I said, I am about as ready as I can be and hopefully that is enough.

[parodeity]

Good. I worked hard on it? [ obviously he's dragging john over to the piano once they get home and...gesturing for john to sit down? ]

[windeity]

[He raises an eyebrow, but when they get home and to the piano he sits at the bench without an argument and patiently waits. He even puts his hands in his lap so he can't do anything.]

I do not doubt that.

[parodeity]

Okay, so...technically, you are also part of the show.

[ what dave decaptchalogues now is...sheet music? ]

I wrote a duet?

[windeity]

[He looks surprised because yeah, he didn't actually expect that.]

A duet? [His eyes are wide and he picks up the sheet music.] Both piano parts?

[parodeity]

[ a nod-shrug. he like. worked hard on this shit? he would have done one with the violin but he somehow thought john would appreciate this more. ]

It's not that long? [ since. well. ]

[windeity]

No, that is totally okay. [He's delighted? He's already placing the music on the ledge in front of him because John is maybe one of those people who can play along by sight without previous study.] I'm ready to start when you are.

[parodeity]

[ dave takes a seat beside john, cracking his knuckles before he sets his hands down. ] Ready.

[ im mobile and dying so you don't get youtube but it's a pretty simple song on the outside but with familiar motifs worked into it subtlely, a bar from a well loved song or a flurry of notes reminiscent of something rose or jade did. ]
