i dont work tuesdays
and ive gotten wednesday off
if that works for you

Re: text;

[nostraightlines]

That works great.

Come by my place Tuesday morning? I'm sending you the address.

[nulliverse]

ill be there

can i ask you something first?
two things actually
or rather ask you something and tell you something

[nostraightlines]

Sure. If the question's about what to pack, just worry about your clothes and if there's any snacks you want and I've got the rest.

[nulliverse]

thats good to know

but actually i was wondering
is it ramsey or ramsay?
and is that your first or last name?

[nostraightlines]

It's Ramse, no y. And that's my last name.

My first name's José.

[nulliverse]

i would never have guessed that
but you must prefer ramse
ill stick with that

did i give you my full name?
celeste blackwell
thats only fair

[nostraightlines]

Back home I'm just used to giving my last name... and hearing it. You can call me José if you want.

I'm still calling you Celeste.

[nulliverse]

it is a nice name
but im used to ramse now
and blackwell would just sound silly
please do

now on to what i wanted to tell you
just in the interests of keeping things clear
not because im some raging egomaniac who assumes everyone will fall in love with me
im not looking for anything serious
if anything does happen at all
just friends to have fun

god thats awkward to say straight out

[nostraightlines]

[ there's a long stretch without response, during which it's entirely possible ramse is laughing. fondly, but he's laughing. ]

Just friends to have fun, got it.
I'll try not to fall in love with you.

In the interests of keeping things clear, is that what you thought was happening?

[nulliverse]

good lord no
you really do think im an egomaniac now

i just had a friend get quite shirty with me about being honest and upfront
its usually an understanding without being said
but he said i had to be perfectly clear and honest
and get your full name

[nostraightlines]

I don't. This isn't coming across well in text, sorry. I do appreciate the clarity.

You've been talking about me?

[nulliverse]

"talking about you" makes it sound much worse than it is
this was only one friend and hes more like an older brother
it was very much in confidence

[nostraightlines]

I'd wondered if I freaked you the other day.
Full disclosure, I told my brother about you too. You'll probably meet him Tuesday.

[nulliverse]

i would say surprised is the extent of it
im not freaked out

i didnt know you had a brother here
or do you mean the same thing
a close friend

[nostraightlines]

We're not related, but Cole's my brother. He's from home.

He was pretty amused about that lipstick you left on me.
And didn't mention.

[nulliverse]

the colour suited you

[nostraightlines]

Did it really? You'll have to let me borrow it then.

[nulliverse]

thats two blokes who have asked to borrow my lipstick now!
eudio does bring in a racy lot

[nostraightlines]

It takes all kinds.
But if he's got dibs on it I'll respect that.

[nulliverse]

ive got more lipstick than you imagine
im sure we can work something out

ill see you tuesday, ramse ;)

[nostraightlines]

I'll see you Tuesday, Celeste.
