[broil]

Huh.

[Good question.]

No clue. What constitutes as 'dating'?

[medals]

Uh - I suppose if you take someone on more than one date? Or make a big deal out of if.

[she's really calm, but don't be fooled: if he makes a big deal out of a date with someone else, the incredible sulk will be released.]

[broil]

Well. There are people I see pretty often. But we're not like - not like you and me. [pause.] I don't have to stop seeing them, do I?

[medals]

[Maybe she looks a little visibly relieved at that. Not like you and me is apparently enough. ] Course not.

[broil]

Okay.

[Visibly relieved right back at you.]

... You got other people too, right?

[medals]

Yeah, course.

[oh but] Probably not as many as you.

[broil]

[he adjusts his position.]

Who are they? I know 'em?

[medals]

[She's lost Alex and Verity, now. None of whom she'd slept with, but Verity she'd kissed and Alex had put up with her drunken rambling. It's sort of weird to compare with Petre, who probably doesn't feel weird at all about diving right into bed with someone. ]

Probably not. There was Verity, before she left. The others are just - dates, I suppose. Raven's funny. Bellamy's a nerd, but he's lovely.

[broil]

['probably']

So you just have lovely people in your life. I'm the token bad boy, am I?

[medals]

[boy, she ain't keeping tabs on you. ]

No one else is actual Demon.

[broil]

They better not be. I don't like competition.

[he is however actual cannibal]

[medals]

[awwwh Petre]

That's where you're crossing the line. Alright then.

[broil]

[There's a good-humored grin on his end - kind, if that's even possible of Petre - playing into their new inner joke with a glance downwards. His hand crawls to entwine their fingers together.]

So we just keep doing what we're doing. Except it's got more meaning now. I think I can work with that.

[medals]

[It sounds simple when he says it like that. With their fingers linked and his mouth grinning and Jem feeling happy/i> for maybe the first time in a long while, it all seems so simple.

Maybe it can be. Maybe it doesn't have to be a mess, the way Gary had been. ]

Good.

[More than good, really. She feels giddy; like if she keeps up the grinning, she might not stop. ] - I can't believe got me a cat, though. Very smooth.

[broil]

I'm always smooth.

[and he presses another kiss to her lips, probably waking up the peaceful kitten. END SCENE.]
