I could try... something else if it's bad nuts... [It's a weird offer, but she's sincere enough about it. But it's lost in the next moment in a laugh that sounds startled out of her, not expecting his tactic to be quite so... forward.] Oh really? Hands on? [She's obviously smiling now, though she still sounds a bit uncertain.] You know, I do understand what that means, right?

	[Smirk.] It's purely scientific, I assure you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed soundofwings 2015-09-16 05:17 am UTC (link)
	[Still smiling, even though the worry stays close and heavy in her mind.] Oh, of course. All for the science. Should I expect full and proper scientific method? Hypothesis to conclusion? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed misterenigma 2015-09-16 05:19 am UTC (link)
	[Very clearly a programmer and not a real scientist:] I think I'm going to take the space biologist approach to this and just poke at you until something happens. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed soundofwings 2015-09-16 05:21 am UTC (link)
	I think that what happens will be me poking back. Also, that's the worst idea. What if I grow tentacles or something when you poke me? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed misterenigma 2015-09-16 05:23 am UTC (link)
	[With familiarity he really shouldn't have:] Your hair is already full of tentacles. It's your aesthetic. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[It doesn't seem strange for him to say - not at first. She laughs softly.] It is not. I promise there are no octopi living on my head. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed misterenigma 2015-09-16 05:30 am UTC (link)
	Maybe I like the octopus. I've been seeing supernatural stuff almost my whole life, so taking a Cthulhu girl out on a date would be in my wheelhouse. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed soundofwings 2015-09-16 05:31 am UTC (link)
	[Absolutely nothing from her end for a moment, not even movement. And then, with a smile that even sounds warm.] A date? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed misterenigma 2015-09-16 05:37 am UTC (link)
	Don't act surprised. I've been trying to make plans with you since before I called. [Affectionately:] I'm going to keep asking until you give me a yes or no. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed soundofwings 2015-09-16 05:40 am UTC (link)
	I can act a little surprised if I want. [And then a pause. As she smiles.] Yes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed misterenigma 2015-09-16 05:43 am UTC (link)
	[Smile.] Yeah? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed soundofwings 2015-09-16 05:44 am UTC (link)
	[Almost just a breath.] Yeah. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed misterenigma 2015-09-16 05:47 am UTC (link)
	[Smile. She makes him feel high in a weird way. Not anything like other girls he's gone out with. And, he knows how dangerous that is. Still:] Pinball? So, if the date goes horribly, at least we have an arcade to get lost in. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed soundofwings 2015-09-16 05:50 am UTC (link)
	[It's like she can feel him smiling through the phone, and smiles back in return.] I like that idea. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed misterenigma 2015-09-16 05:51 am UTC (link)
	And if it goes well, I'll make you come to Bruce's party with me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed soundofwings 2015-09-16 05:53 am UTC (link)
	[Another little pause that's filled with nerves again, but after a breath, as she smiles.] If it goes well, we can talk about the party... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed misterenigma 2015-09-16 05:59 am UTC (link)
	Those terms are acceptable. [Smirk.] Besides, I'm going to make sure there's a karaoke there and I don't think you're ready for my tantalizing rendition of "Semi-Charmed Life." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed soundofwings 2015-09-16 06:03 am UTC (link)
	[So much tease:] What, no Black Velvet? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed misterenigma 2015-09-16 06:06 am UTC (link)
	[Laughing.] Hey, that's reserved for Dolly. She's there every night owning that- wait. What? [Directed at himself. Quietly:] Who the crap is Dolly? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed soundofwings 2015-09-16 01:44 pm UTC (link)
	[No response for a bit - "Dolly" sounds familiar to her too. She eventually swallows the strange feeling in the back of her throat (ow).] This is weird. [Another hesitation, another breath to steady herself.] Maybe we just stick with pinball? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed misterenigma 2015-09-16 02:58 pm UTC (link)
	Pinball. No talking about comics, karaoke and [Pause as he thinks.] tacos? That sounds right. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed soundofwings 2015-09-16 03:20 pm UTC (link)
	[Automatically:] But I love tacos. They're amaz... [Trailing off and then taking a deep breath.] Okay, no talking about tacos either. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed misterenigma 2015-09-16 03:24 pm UTC (link)
	[He laughs and shakes his head.] Okay. I'm really going to hang up now before we make things weird again. Text me if your brother tells you something interesting? I want to hear about it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Phone: Emily/Ed soundofwings 2015-09-16 03:27 pm UTC (link)
	Okay. [Smiles.] Um, get me the address of the arcade? Please? Put it in the book? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
