If you keep thinking about what will happen when it all ends, you'll waste the time getting there.

[I have not much else to do but let you lean here and listen to what you're saying.]

[cookscleanskicksass]

[you're being very patient even for you]

You're saying take the short-term view?

[blueondeck]

I'm taking the pirate view. I'm not worrying about anything that's not in front of me.

[cookscleanskicksass]

...you can do that?

[blueondeck]

You can too.

[cookscleanskicksass]

I -- I don't know if I can.

[blueondeck]

You can.

[cookscleanskicksass]

You have too much faith in me.

[blueondeck]

You're a pirate, aren't you?

[cookscleanskicksass]

Not always a very good one!

[blueondeck]

I don't want to think of you not being around yet.

[cookscleanskicksass]

[whimper]

I don't want to think of that either. You're right.

[blueondeck]

. . . You're being more cuddly than usual.

[so is he, but that's not the point]

[cookscleanskicksass]

I don't know what you mean.



[promptly snuggling into you harder]

[blueondeck]

. . .

[That would be exactly what he means.]

Hakase.

[cookscleanskicksass]

[I am not letting go not ever I will love you and squeeze you and call you George Joe]

J-Joe?

[blueondeck]

[Oh no, I'll stare at you and wait for you to explain the need for so much snuggling]

[cookscleanskicksass]

[stares back hopefully]
[for about a millisecond, now watch me fold like a chair]

I just don't want things to change. I know it's stupid.

[blueondeck]

Why would anything change?

[cookscleanskicksass]

Everything always changes!

[blueondeck]

I wont change.

[cookscleanskicksass]

[...actually, I do believe that]

Good.

[blueondeck]

[Good, you should. People like me don't change easily.

tightening my hold on you]

[cookscleanskicksass]

[resting my head on your shoulder]

You've always been kind of a constant. J-Joe? Will you tell me why you're upset?

[blueondeck]

Only constant because Marvelous picked me up first, right?

[. . . ]

Because I wanted you like this.
