Will pondered the limitations of Dungeons and Dragons seriously before answering. By the time he and Mike had discovered the game their number had swelled from two to four and they had played that way purely because it was what they had. They had attempted to include Max and occasionally El when the time came but the girls only played occasionally. It would no doubt be even more challenging to fill out their numbers here. "Technically only three--- two characters and a DM. It's better with more than three but fewer than seven."
His eyes kindled brightly at the mention of RPGs. A rare uninhibited grin broke the usually reserved arrangement of his features. "That sounds so complicated but really cool! I think I would love those!" Was there anything better than becoming thoroughly lost in a fantasy story? He could imagine nothing more exhilarating. For all the time he was in the company of the Party it was with his stories that Will spent the greater portion of his time.
The grin vanished to be replaced with wide-eyed mortification moments later. Will's cheeks unwittingly warmed at the mention of flirting. Due to Hana's not unwelcome assault on his sensibilities he had almost forgotten she was in fact a young woman. He was still unused to girls--- the only girl he had ever been intimately acquainted with was his mother and she was hardly a standard example. More recently he had learned to like Max and she was far rougher and tougher than any of the boys. The concept of feminine wiles was foreign and vaguely uncomfortable to think about. "You don't have to do that. It's not a big deal." He murmured, refusing the impulse to look away.
A smaller cotton-soft smile of fondness returned when Hana almost walked into the door and saved herself at the last moment. It was impossible to dwell on his discomfort when she was acting so endearing. His anxious instinct was to resist her pull but it was proving inexorable. "Of course I do. I want to see everything you talk about. It all sounds excellent. I should probably get back by dark today but I'd like to come over to your place soon to see MEKA. If that's okay?" Going to one another's homes now? When had they become friends?
