It's great for staying warm in the winter months without spending a lot of money to keep the whole apartment warm. And it's a great way to pass the time with friends too.
[Just sitting here, staying warm and playing card games or something.]
It might be a little silly, but this is something I've always wanted to do with my friends. It's not the right season for it back home, so I haven't been able to ask everyone there for it yet.
Apartments where I'm from are small. There are bigger places, but they're way more expensive. Maybe in another decade I could afford something like that, but for right now I live in a shoebox.
It is, but it's not like I'm going to make millions of dollars in my first few months of working. I have to work for a long time to earn the money first. They don't pay you upfront.
...it's really okay that I'm back, right? L-like, I'm not bothering you and Ruby, am I? Because if you two wanted to do your own thing I would understand because I just want you both to be happy, even that doesn't include me I should shut up now

[in more ways than one.]
Do you like the place everyone made for you, then?

It's hardly important right now. Instead... How have you been?

Lean forward for a moment?

Date: 2022-04-08 02:49 am (UTC)S-sorry...
[But he leans forward.]

no subject
Date: 2022-04-08 03:30 am (UTC)Well this is already a better kiss than their last one, yes.
He's a little shy about it but he'll return the kiss too.]

Date: 2022-04-08 03:38 am (UTC)We're both very glad to have you back. You haven't bothered us at all.
no subject
Date: 2022-04-08 04:30 am (UTC)[He still feels like he's going to wake up at any moment and this won't be real.]
...so I can kiss both of you any time I want? Or, er, at least ask to kiss any time I want.

Date: 2022-04-08 04:39 am (UTC)Well, I'll let Ruby answer for herself even though I'm guessing I know her answer, but... I wouldn't mind that.

W-well good.
