[Warded to Asher]

I need your advice.
About Katya.
And the Winter Formal.
~~Shut up.~~

[Warded to Katya]

Do you like ice skating? ~~I still need some practice so~~ I'm going out to the lake tonight if you want to come. With so many people gone, it should be relatively empty for once. Still cold as shit, but you don't mind that so much, right?

Aiden's always humoring me.

Look, Casper, you're afraid because even though you know you'd be fine, that things would eventually go back to normal, you don't want them to. If not wanting to lose a good thing is cowardly then let's welcome the rest of the world to that party. Stop beating yourself up for having feelings. It's good. ~~Even if it makes me scared yo~~ It sucks in a lot of ways but it's good. Being worried about this means you actually care.

~~I'm really proud that you told her about your mom.~~ I'm sure you were scared to tell her about your mom, about yourself... but those are things you've had to deal with before in various ways. Telling someone you care about them is out of your comfort zone, so of course it feels scarier in a lot of ways.

I know that I care about her, Asher. I'm not an idiot. ~~But I'm not so certain that actually caring is a good thing.~~

I wasn't scared to tell her. Not really. I needed to tell her to [...] balance things out. She'd been open with me and, for the lonest time, I just kept my mouth shut. It needed to be done. [...] We'd also had a lot of vodka; that probably helped. But I guess this needs to be done too.

Maybe I just need more vodka.

I know you're not an idiot, and I know you know, but you need to cut out the negative shit. It's a great thing to ~~love~~ ~~like like~~ care about someone as much as you care about Katya. It's a great thing that you guys can open up to each other, because while I don't know her very well I know you've got a lot of shit hanging over your head. Being open really means a lot coming from you.

So just own the fact that you care about her, own the fact that you're scared to talk to her because you care about her, and because of that you're scared this could somehow blow up in your face. Ask her to the dance. Tell her you want to be exclusive. And don't do it while you're drunk if you can manage it because you don't want something like this to seem like a vodka-induced request.

~~Boom. So sayeth Asher.~~
