You've reached Lust. I'm not available at the moment, please leave a message.

If it's important enough, I'll get back to you.

...Phrasing it like that just puts things out of proportion.

[a_sin_for_him]

I'm not sure I follow.

[envy_the_sinners]

You make it sound like we're closer than we actually are.

[WELL I'VE GOT NEWS FOR YOU, SCAR...]

[a_sin_for_him]

Scar, I didn't make anything sound like anything. I stated fact.

[envy_the_sinners]

[Another pause, and Scar just drops it. He's only resisting because he isn't entirely comfortable with the idea of this. Not yet. Likely not any time soon.]

You don't want me to do anything differently, then?

[Just so he's absolutely clear.]

[a_sin_for_him]

I want you to do whatever you want to do.

We're both in uncharted territory. We don't need to complicate things any further with throwing social and conventional expectations into the mix.

[envy_the_sinners]

Fine.

[What... is he supposed to do, now? Scar has always roamed aimlessly in Hoenn. He's never had anyone he's really obligated to keep informed on his whereabouts or status. This is making his head hurt.]

So I'll... see you at some point, then.

I'm starting a morning workout routine with Alphonse later this week at the gym, why don't I pick up breakfast for us after and drop by wherever you're staying?

[Lust is aiming for actual plans, none of this 'some point' stuff.]

[envy_the_sinners]

[That means he has to get a damn hotel, doesn't it? Scar hesitates.]

If you don't mind eating at a hotel.

[a_sin_for_him]

No, of course not.

[envy_the_sinners]

What day, then?

[He needs to know when he should actually book a room.]

[a_sin_for_him]

How about Thursday?

[envy_the_sinners]

Fine.

[a_sin_for_him]

I'll see you then.
