Er, okay.

So I believe I have this all in order!! And I, um. I am in dire need of some assistance right now. It's rather embarrassing so any unclued wise guy who'd like to heave a few haws at my expense can go ahead and show their rears to the door because I'm not having any of that horseshit!

[He clears his throat.]

Anywhosits.

So yesterday was, er.

A bit wacko?

And in all the hubbub, I might have done something I would have never done normally with someone. Or, um. Perhaps I'd been doing my darnedest to prepare myself to step in that direction, but gee whiz I expected a bit longer of a turnaround period before getting my ass handed to me like a dude on butler island!!!

Now I turned tail as soon as I got up and I'm hiding until I can get all the words that I need to say together. But conflabbit if facing him isn't the hardest thing to do sometimes!!!

	Let it out, boy, let it all hang loose out in the open. What's eatin' you? ... Is it Dirk? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yes, actually... If you wouldn't mind imparting some sage wisdom. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sage wisdom on the grill-- cooked medium rare, slathered in your choice of premium steaksauce and brought to the table still sizzlin'. He's a tough nut to crack, just a little hard to deal with but I'll help you however I can, Jakey-boy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Chef Lalonde, I do so fancy your quick service! Five star wisdom every time, I'd say!!! You've certainly made a regular out of me!! [He spares himself a laugh before getting serious again.] I'm not certain where this relationship is headed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Is it so much to ask to gallivant around undiscovered ruins with him and travel about the globe tackling the most puzzling of ancient secrets? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ She doesn't laugh, but it's so Jake to want to do that. She is equal parts endeared and empathetic. ]

Aw, Jake. You gotta think long and hard about that-- the stuff you want. Details, stuff aside from sweeping adventure and treasure huntin'. And you gotta tell him after you're done the thinking. If he can't give you what you want out of your relationship... you guys need to talk about it. Don't bottle shit up. Dirk probably has a good idea what's up, he's a smart fella, so don't keep it from him.

[ She wants Jake to be safe and happy and content, but she hopes to god that he doesn't hurt Dirk in his pursuit of it. It's a nasty way to think, and Roxy kind of hates herself for it, but... it is honestly what runs through her head first. ]

	You should know how difficult it is to talk to the guy sometimes, Roxy... what should I even say??? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[private] retrogame 2013-05-10 08:12 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, I know. He's a tough one that way. Just... maybe tell him what you're telling me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	'Howdy there, Dirk, a pleasant evening it is tonight, isn't it? Just like every other night, except last night, because last night was kind of-' [Then he just lets out a groan. Omfg. He can't do this. ROXY HE CAN'T DO THIS.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[private] retrogame 2013-05-11 02:36 am UTC (link)
	Nooo! Not what I meant. Just tell him you don't know what way's up and where you want things to mosey on down to. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[private] skulltop 2013-05-12 07:46 am UTC (link)
	I'm afraid to inquire as to where down might be... (Reply to this) (Parent)
