WHAT Do what you want. Be free!
WHERE Anywhere you wanna be
WHEN Day 36, at any time
NOTES Happy Friday, enjoy the rhyme.

[ QM people keep QM-ing!

If you need/want a prompt:
It's Friday, I'm in love! Or lust maybe? Whatever you're feeling, you might hear some appropriate (or inappropriate) mood music through the day: a victory fanfare when you find a penny on the sidewalk, sexy slow jams while you check yourself out in a mirror.

Or not. You do you guys! ]

[covering a startled laugh. candid] ...I'm very sorry to have propositioned you. I was not... a balanced young man.

[hailstormed]

[ looks a bit like a scolded dog, somehow ]

I, um. I wasn't about to accept, regardless... I knew you would not want it.

[wrongstory]

[mm concern] I wouldn't, no. Are you all right, Gale?

[hailstormed]

I'm sorry, I-- I suppose I had expected you to be... more upset, so...

[ idk what to do, man ]

[wrongstory]

[shaking his head]

It's happened before. I had my misery over it already, then. And you were a wonderful help; you eased the unhappiness a great deal.

[hailstormed]

[ sounds fake but ]

Oh... did I...

...

Thank you.

[wrongstory]

[wrongstory]

[wait. no. i know what this is. this isn't fair]

[wrongstory]

[not again, not catching feelings again]

I'm sure I should be saying that instead...

[hailstormed]

[ that sure was a range of expressions ]

... are you well, otherwise?

[wrongstory]

[jeez. adds another one to the list, rueful smile]

Very well.

[hailstormed]

[ ... okay. yes. perking up slightly though still clearly kind of embarrassed by all of this ]

Oh-- alright. I'm glad. Um. I don't need... thanks, or anything of the sort.

[wrongstory]

Will you do me another favor, then? If you'd let me buy you breakfast...

[hailstormed]

Oh-- no, I don't need repayment, or anything.

[wrongstory]

[pause. he'd fidget if he was a person who allowed himself to fidget]

I'd just like to eat with you.

[hailstormed]

[ .................. oh

oh ]

... if... if you'd like, then.

[wrongstory]

[this could go real bad. but he's gotta find something to do during eternity]

Where do you want to go?

[hailstormed]

I'm not picky...

[ food is food. maybe lets go to the cafe as usual tho ]

[wrongstory]

[he'll try to gently coax gale into getting more than whatever tiny trifle he'll initially plan for]

I should ask how you've been doing, more generally.

[hailstormed]

[ he probably manages to get gale to get a sandwich at least but. still.

seems surprised ]

Oh, it's... it's been alright, I suppose.

[wrongstory]

Are you using the term generously, or has the time been treating you well?

[hailstormed]

I'm being truthful. It isn't as if much has been happening, though I prefer it that way...

[wrongstory]

Good. I'm glad. I get the feeling that you deserve some quiet.

[hailstormed]

[ vaguely abashed ]

... thank you.

[wrongstory]

[quiet for a moment]

If I've invaded your privacy by learning things about you which you wouldn't have shared, otherwise, forgive me?
