Who: Crow and Rean
When: Day 50, afternoon into evening
Where: first Ginger Car, then the Beach

[ So, sometimes you ask a guy that you definitely aren't going out with on a date. You know, just spending some quality time romancing a guy who definitely isn't your boyfriend. It's fine, don't worry about it.

Anyway.

Crow had originally intended to take Rean out on their date within a day or so of asking him, but one thing led to another and it's been fifteen. Whoops. Either way, he's showing up now at Ginger's car, dressed very nicely and he's knocking. He could just call Rean over telepathically but why not go the whole nine yards? Crow's always enjoyed being Extra. ]

I thought it'd be nice to try something new for our date. And as for surprises...

[ He winks at Rean. ]

Most of 'em are even good ones.

[ His tone's playful as he says that-- and yes, he knows that's implying there's some bad ones. ]

[awakenerd]

[He lets that slide with a return smile.]

I'm looking forward to all of them.

[Good or bad, he wants to know Crow better.]

[bad_crowmance]

All of 'em, huh? I'll have to remember you said that.

[ Though he realizes he doesn't even know more than a fair few of his own secrets himself. Still, despite what he says there's a small doki at those words. It's nice to know Rean wants to know the bad parts of him, too. ]

[awakenerd]

I hope you do.

[He doesn't want Crow to hide anything from him after all. Crow is not just his Awakener, though that'd be enough, but also his friend.]

[bad_crowmance]

[ He shakes his head, smiling. ]

You really are a huge sap, you know that?

[ Says the guy taking Rean out on a (¿romantic?) date. ]

[awakenerd]

I wonder what that makes you?

[bad_crowmance]

[ The guy who fell in love with a sap.

(Not that he projects that thought to Rean.) ]

I'll let you figure that one out for yourself.

[awakenerd]

Oh, I think I have an idea.

[Said with mock innocence.]

[bad_crowmance]

Ohhh? Why don't you share?

[ When he says it like that, it sounds like Rean's got something impish up his sleeves to say. ]

[awakenerd]

That you're a sweet guy who takes care of others? Didn't take a detective to figure that one out.

[bad_crowmance]

Haha, is that so?

[ Crow is pretty sure Rean is biased and wrong about that. ]

Sounds like a lot to live up to.

[awakenerd]

You seem to be managing.

[ Bond ]

[bad_crowmance]

Well, I don't actually agree with your opinion buuut I respect your right to have it.

[ He reaches to affectionately ruffle Rean's hair. ]

Re: [ Bond ]

[awakenerd]

Hm. It's okay if you can't see it.

Re: [ Bond ]

[bad_crowmance]

Pretty confident in yourself, huh?

[ He doesn't have to agree with Rean to find that attractive as hell.

They're getting closer to the beach now. Crow had already somewhat set up, so there's a Licorice-coloured blanket set up with some candles and a picnic basket. ]

Re: [ Bond ]

[awakenerd]

About this, yes.

You've really set this up, huh?

[It looks so peaceful and romantic.]

[bad_crowmance]

Of course. What's the point in asking out a guy on a date if you're not willing to put up some effort for him, huh?

[ Crow may be being stupid about some things but Rean is absolutely worth the effort. ]

[awakenerd]

I won't argue--it's nice.

[bad_crowmance]

Heh. Glad you like it.

[ Crow waits for Rean to sit before he sits down himself and pulls out some bottles of homemade cocktails ("Red Hot Soda") out of the basket, followed by the food (fish burgers and fries). ]

[awakenerd]

Well, if you wanted to sweep me off my feet you're doing a good job.

[He settles to join him!]

[bad_crowmance]

That's the plan! Sweep you off your feet and never let you recover.

[awakenerd]

I'm looking forward to it.

[bad_crowmance]

Haha, you'd better be. How do you like the food?

[awakenerd]

It's good. There's a nostalgic taste to it.

[bad_crowmance]

Nostalgic, huh?

[ He contemplates the fish burger as he takes a bite. ]

Maybe this isn't the first time I've ever made 'em for you.

[ He didn't get the impression he cooked often, but he could see that happening if not the exact reasons why. ]
