"Well any of those! Do you have feelings about any of them?"

"I– don't know? The legal helper person – uh… paralegal? That might work, since I think that's mainly Englishy stuff instead of actually trying to win over… a jury or whatever? – I don't know how a lot of this works, so."

"Yeah, fair enough, neither do I. I don't know much about politics either, but being charismatic and winning people over is fun. I'd also like to be a scientist though and being a politician who likes science in this country might be doomed from the start."

He laughs a bit. "Yeah, they don't seem great."

Permalink

"Okay, so, your turn, ten words."

Permalink

"… Charismatic, smiley. Funny?" He thinks for a moment. "Frustrated by conflict, sometimes talkative, and apparently boring since I can't think of ten individual words to describe me?" He laughs a bit.

Permalink

"That doesn't make you boring, I'm pretty sure most people can't think of ten words to describe themselves on the spot. I just happen to have a particularly easy time verbalizing my thoughts."

Permalink

"I don't think I'm great at that," says Matt. "I have difficulty working out what I'm even thinking? Let alone putting it into words."

Permalink

"What do you mean, you don't know what you're thinking?"

Permalink

"Sometimes it's a very vague idea on a thing and I have to poke it if I want to find out that my opinions are more than just 'not super positive, not super negative'?"

Permalink

"Huh, so you're more like an intuitive feelings person or something?"

Permalink

"Maybe," he says. "I haven't really thought about it much."

Permalink

He giggles. "You're really cute."

Permalink

Matt smiles. "Thanks."

And then they are nearing a park! Matt points out the park. It is indeed a park.

Permalink

Yep. Such a park. Wow. "D'you wanna walk in the park or just wave it by?"

Permalink

"Walk in the park might be nice."

Permalink

"Off we go, then!" And on a whim, Sadde takes Matt's hand.

Permalink

Matt's okay with this. And off they do indeed go.

The park's relatively pretty. Not amazingly so, but there's a small lake and there are lots of trees and things.

It's quite peaceful.

Permalink

So they can continue holding hands and seeing the sights and getting to know each other while holding hands!

Permalink

They can! Matt seems to be enjoying himself.

Permalink

Awesome! Sadde's glad of this.

Permalink

Then they've walked through the park and, "Should we go get something to eat now?"

Permalink

"Sure! Lead the way, cutie."

Permalink

So he does! And then they arrive at a nice little café that has a few other people from school in it and they can order from a selection of food – pastries, cake, fries and stuff if you happen to want dinner early, various things. Drinks are also available.

Matt offers to pay.

Sadde feels like technically he asked Matt out so he should pay.
