What the hell are you talking about?

[ she glances at the message before his and.... oh what the fuck. ]

You weren't supposed to get that. Phone messed up. Just forget you saw it.

you know, that excuse was cute when I used it. not so much on you.

tell me, what do you miss? my dashing smile? or maybe having a punching bag around?

Yeah, I really miss pushing you around because I'm such a bully.

[ she's not trying to sound so... resentful? she's just embarrassed. again. ]

I can't miss someone just to miss them?

what can I say? you’re my favorite bully 🩷

( and he means that despite his teasing. )

sure you can, you’re usually not so…open about it. so what’s got you feeling sappy huh?

Nothing.

I was just feeling lonely, I guess.


[ that's partially true! ]

( although he had teased and taunted her a bit, loneliness was a friend he knew too well. for once he could feel some level of empathy for her, opting to take a kinder approach to her vulnerable admission. )

yeah? what can we do to fix that? need some company from old spike?

I'm not on the Bebop right now. Had some business to take care of.

[ she won't disclose much more than that. ]

Maybe later we can watch a movie or something.

Put on one of those old karate flicks you're always trying to get me to watch.

taking care of business huh?

( there's a million little scenes that run through his mind about what she could be up to, scheming at but he'll let it be. she was just vulnerable with him and considering she was even willing to go that far well... )

sounds like a date, you'll really like this one I've been thinking about for a bit. it has a bit of comedy, I think you'll like it.

so when should I start preparing the popcorn?


( the popcorn they couldn't afford but he'll figure something out. )

[ there's gratitude where he doesn't press about her business. it was enough that her stupid phone glitched out and she's fumbling to sweep it under the rug. he doesn't need to know what she's presently up to either. it helps that she's distracted spike with the idea of a comfy night-in ( when do they ever actually go out? )— ]

If you wanna look at it like that, sure.

[ a date. faye catches herself smiling. ]

I won't be back for a couple more hours.

Got a few woolongs I can spare... should I grab anything while I'm out?

( well this was certainly a strange turn in their relationship. what was once contempt and ire was slowly trickling into something more warm, pure and even precious. far too precious for a careless man who so ran from emotions and yet felt them all deep within. he wasn't too sure what to make of all this and yet for once his apathetic mantra came in handy.

'whatever happens, happens.'

and that was the attitude he decided to take now. )


the popcorn, and a soda if you can.
