I mean, we had more than one date, obviously. I just didn't date anyone besides her.

[ Well, this is just getting more and more uncomfortable, that's super... ]

I didn't write that. This network is fucking stupid.

[ But you'll note he isn't denying it, either. ]

More sense than what...?

[ Getting off track, but how can he not latch onto that? ]

[personal profile] channellings 2020-05-05 01:34 am (UTC)(link)
Well, damn, I'd hope so if you ended up marrying her. [it's fortunate, eddie can't see him snickering or else it'd probably be worse for him and definitely turn out bad for klaus.

the denying isn't helping his case any, either.]


Agreed. If you get tired of it, we could always just talk in person? The network can't mess that kinda thing up.

[face-to-face though, there's a high chance klaus's mouth will move faster than his brain.]

Rather than thinking you were just a virgin living underneath a rock.

[ Eddie's just going to...sail away from more discussion about Myra because it's giving him anxiety. ]

Yeah, I guess you're right about that. The network can't fuck up real-time discussion. Is there anywhere decent to get a drink around here? I've been to Perfect Spot, but I haven't really checked anywhere else.

[ Well, for the first half of his life, that wasn't actually that far off. ]

Oh. Yeah, no. Not...no.

[fair enough, klaus won't question the change of subject at all.]

The Perfect Spot is one place, but there's also the lounge and hotel if you prefer? Either way, the drinks are good. [even if he hasn't drank all that much since his arrival here and he's definitely not bringing up the fact they could rent a room.]

So, you aren't a virgin? Another good thing to know.

I've never been to that one, but if you have an address, I can find it. What I originally thought was kind of a lame, superfluous power has actually turned out to be super fucking useful. I'm like a walking GPS and shit, now. I can meet you at whichever you think would be better, just let me know.

[ Not that he's internally defining this as said date that Klaus was getting at, but if he actually looked at the bigger picture of this conversation, that's pretty much exactly what this is. ]

Uh, no. No, I'm not. I might be sheltered as far as the dating scene goes, especially since I've been out of circulation since I was even younger than you are, but no, I'm not quite that big a pity case.

[personal profile] channellings 2020-05-06 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
Sure, I've got the address. [which he sends before continuing his message.] A walking GPS? That sounds rather convenient. Definitely better than what I've got.

[it could be their date, although there's one teeny-tiny problem:] Would we maybe be able to meet at a later time today or tonight? I've got a prior engagement that needs handling. [oh god, klaus, why did you say it like that?]

Come on, man, it wouldn't make you pitiful. Even if you were a virgin, we could find a way to fix that.
riskanalyst: (annoyed)

Klaus/Eddie

[personal profile] riskanalyst 2020-05-06 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks. Yeah, it's pretty fucking sweet. Why, what've you got?

[ Eddie's not exactly in a rush considering he neither initiated nor has fully grasped the reality of this situation just yet. Give him a minute, he'll get there. ]

Oh yeah, whenever. Just give me a shout, man. It's fine.

[ ...dude. He's not an idiot. ]

Dude, there is literally a movie whose entire plot is haha look at the pathetic 40-year-old who hasn't ever had sex, it would make me pitiful. [ ...nope, not touching that. He wouldn't even know where to begin with that one. ]

No problem. What do I have? [hard pass.] Something that sucks. :)

[good because sorry, eds, he's gotta go through with this threesome first. should be plenty of time for him to figure it out, though? hopefully.]

Just didn't want you to think you were being stood up or something.

[for a few long minutes, klaus just laughs and laughs at the reference. like, of course eddie would mention that of all things, but once he regathers himself:] Alright, alright, you've made your point. But it's nothing you have to worry about, so let's move on to better things.

Like what kind of hobbies do you have?

Klaus/Eddie

[personal profile] riskanalyst 2020-05-06 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh. Well all right then, I take it that's an off-limits subject. I'm sorry.

[ Richie's shit is dumb so it, too, arguably sucks, but Richie didn't mind telling, so whatever Klaus has is probably a whole other level of suck and it's none of Eddie's business. ]

Don't worry about it.

[ ...hobbies. Good question... ]

Uh. Huh...you know, I never really had time for them as an adult. I should find one, actually... I have all the time in the world now...

[personal profile] channellings 2020-05-07 05:18 am (UTC)(link)
No reason to apologize, it's just something I'm not ready to share. That's all.

[not to mention, it might be something that could put eddie off and he's not willing to take that risk (yet).

did... did he just say he never had time for hobbies? like, not even one???]


Seriously? Damn, man, yeah. You gotta get out there and try something new. What sorta things do you like doing?

Klaus/Eddie

[personal profile] riskanalyst 2020-05-08 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know, yeah, I guess not, now that I think of it.

[ It's hard to have hobbies when your fat mother won't let you leave her side and your subsequent fat wife won't go out and do anything but also makes you regret it if you do something without her. It'd always been easier to just not do anything and save himself the hassle. But Klaus is right. He should try something new. ]

I don't know, I'll have to Google around for ideas and see if anything sticks. I don't imagine myself still being into comic books and building dams for shits and giggles like I did when I was a kid.

[well, shit, that's kind of sad. klaus has no idea where he'd be if he hadn't gotten kicked out of the academy when he did; everything changed the day he realized he was completely, totally free to do whatever the hell he wanted.

imagining not being able to do that well into his thirties and possibly further? his face screws up at the idea and he shakes his head before returning the text.]


Hey, you could be, there's nothing wrong with that. To be honest, I draw and knit during a lot of my free time.

Ah, I can't draw for shit. Wish I could, though; it's a cool skill. I'll figure something out.

Practice, sweetheart, just like with everything else. And if you can't there are other things! Sounds good, I'll get back at you after a while.
