Hey. I've got a question for you.

I can't decide if that seems ominous or promising.

Shoot, Canada.

[thecourtier.insanejournal.com]

I'm only scary when the need arises. And don't call me Canada, because I can't think of a nickname for you!

You got a date for the dance?

[reehobbs.insanejournal.com]

Then you're not thinking hard enough.

I have browbeat my Calpal into dressing up with me but I wouldn't call that a date since there's a 0% chance of getting lucky out of it..

[thecourtier.insanejournal.com]

I was being polite...

Want to be mine?

[reehobbs.insanejournal.com]

You can call me Canaan?

Sure, I'd like that.

[thecourtier.insanejournal.com]

Forgive the dim moment... Canaan?

Great. Should be a good one, I think.

[reehobbs.insanejournal.com]

The town I'm from. Nothing to forgive, no reason you should know.

Of course it will be!

[thecourtier.insanejournal.com]

Got it. And now I do know!

Katya's trying to get me to go as a fancy ghost.

[reehobbs.insanejournal.com]

What exactly makes a ghost fancy?

[thecourtier.insanejournal.com]

I have absolutely no idea.

[reehobbs.insanejournal.com]

Kat didn't explain herself?

[thecourtier.insanejournal.com]

Not clearly, no.

[reehobbs.insanejournal.com]

Huh. I guess maybe you could be a ghost with a top hat.

[thecourtier.insanejournal.com]

Well, I imagine it would look quite dashing.

[reehobbs.insanejournal.com]

That it would.

Or you could be something that involves less covering up of your lovely face. Just saying.

[thecourtier.insanejournal.com]

Point taken. Also, flatterer.

[reehobbs.insanejournal.com]

Is it flattery if it's very, very true?

[thecourtier.insanejournal.com]

Of course it is. Doesn't make it unwelcome though.

[reehobbs.insanejournal.com]

Don't worry, I'll always tell you you're pretty.

[thecourtier.insanejournal.com]

Right back at ya, Ree.

[reehobbs.insanejournal.com]

Well go ahead and do it then, tease.

[thecourtier.insanejournal.com]

Maybe I'm keeping you on your toes so you least expect it? That, or I prefer to give compliments in person. One of the two...

[reehobbs.insanejournal.com]

Is it because you know if you call a girl pretty to her face it usually gets you something, especially when you already know she's interested in you?

[thecourtier.insanejournal.com]

More so that it's easier to express yourself face to face as a non native speaker. Tone in the written word is hard, man.

[reehobbs.insanejournal.com]

I think you express yourself just fine, cutie.

Though admittedly there's a certain something to be said for hearing you express yourself. That accent, man. Oof.

[thecourtier.insanejournal.com]

You'd be surprised how often people show a lack of understanding.

And, thank you. We are proud of our differences, after all.

[reehobbs.insanejournal.com]

Really? Huh. Maybe people just aren't paying enough attention.

That's the way it should be.

[thecourtier.insanejournal.com]

That's always my logic.

I think so too. There's a lot to be proud of in different ways.
