I'll sail back to you

[boughtstockinsocks]

ALWAYS COME BACK They may be a rambler, a gambler, always on the run, a wanted criminal, someone with a higher calling, or just not the type to spend time with you (which may be fine by you), yet somehow, they'll always find their way back to your door. And they'll, again and again, find themselves wanting you, for support, for healing, for feeling alive, for venting frustration and anger, for anything and everything at all. You'll welcome them with open arms. Comment: prefs, info, preferred role, etc. Reply: to others. Thread: with them.

Bill is on hand, but that's a much clearer message.

I'd like to be a superb date. I might need pointers.

[barderalready]

I can definitely give pointers, if you're really so eager.

[hotspurs]

This one he really should check. This one isn't at all coming remotely cool.

I'm eager.

Not at all nailed it.

[barderalready]

And yet, somehow nailed it enough.

Let's start with brunch on Saturday, then. It'll be much easier to give you tips when I can actually see you.

[hotspurs]

Any advance pointers on what to wear?

[barderalready]

Whatever you're comfortable in! I just want us to have fun.

[hotspurs]

You're always fun, Archie.

[barderalready]

:) Thanks, Horatio. Likewise.

[hotspurs]

Okay. He's managed. He's absolutely managed. Now to just psych himself up for Saturday.

I'll see you soon, then.

Looking forward to it.

[barderalready]

Me, too! :)

[hotspurs]

He can leave it at that. He can completely leave it at that.

Or, at any rate, he can leave it at that until he's actually stretching out on his apartment's couch the next day.

Just got in. Still on for brunch tomorrow?

#smooth

[barderalready]

Much smooth. Very wow.

Absolutely! Have you missed any food in particular?

[hotspurs]

Honestly, proper coffee more than anything else.

[barderalready]

Well, that's simple enough! I'll pick somewhere with really good coffee.

Do you wanna meet at whatever place or should I pick you up? Or you can pick me up, whichever?

[hotspurs]

I'd like to pick you up.

So smooth. And then.

If it's walkable. Bill's sisters have the car.

[barderalready]

And yet again, what a good.

That's definitely doable, then.

[hotspurs]

If you're sure.

I'm excited.

[barderalready]

I'm very sure.

And I'm very excited, too.

[hotspurs]

I've really missed you, Archie.

That's not too much, right?

[barderalready]

Not in the least.

I've missed you, too.

[hotspurs]

Really looking forward to tomorrow.

[barderalready]

So am I. We'll have fun.

[hotspurs]

We will.

And coffee.

And maybe a walk? If you have time.

And if I'm over how weird it is to be on solid ground again.

[barderalready]

all of those things sound fantastic.

Even the getting used to the land legs part. :)

Is that a thing? I know sea legs are.

[hotspurs]

It is. Sailors and astronauts call it "Mal de Debarquement" sometimes to make it seem more proper.

Or if it lasts longer than a few days.
