[ now he's looking amused ]

It is done with mostly good intentions. In the name of friendship.

[verminous]

Only mostly... your faith's staggering, there, bud.

[agamid]

The rest is envy, I am sure.

[ pat pat ]

[verminous]

Not sure I believe that, but we'll go with it.

[dion may pat, it's fine.]

-glad we don't have to worry about touching each other anymore.

[agamid]

Did you miss the affection?

[verminous]

A little, honestly. There are people I got pretty used to that with, so having to be so cautious about it was... different.

[agamid]

[ okay, bluntly, ]

You mean your lover?

[verminous]

No! I can be affectionate with people who I'm not--

I wouldn't really call us...

[agamid]

[ sits down at one of the tables

let's talk ]

How would you define it?

[verminous]

[sits also...]

We didn't really... define it. I'd call it more, ah, agreeing to see how things go. Together.

[agamid]

And that doesn't include physical intimacy?

[verminous]

We kissed, sure.

[agamid]

[ cute ]

I see. And you are content with this... state of things? You do not desire something more concrete?

[verminous]

I wouldn't really say that it's not concrete either, you know?

... but it's also only been-- a week. Slightly over a week.

[agamid]

Alright. As long as the lack of definition causes you no grief.

[verminous]

It doesn't. I've- never done anything like this before, anyway, I don't feel like there's any rush.

[even if it's only temporary.]

Only thing that causes me any grief about it is it's harder to visit him this way.

[agamid]

[ tilts his head ]

So it is one of the senior crew?

[verminous]

Wondered how long it'd take you to just ask.

It's, uh. Io.

[agamid]

I see.

[ the one npc he has never spoken to ]

Congratulations. He seems like a good man.
