As it happens.

And the day after that Arthur and Dayo will have time to talk.

Permalink

"So."

Permalink

"What did you think of the twins yesterday?"

Permalink

"Ah, they're pretty great."

Permalink

"They kinda are, aren't they," she says, raising an eyebrow. "I'd love to get to know them better."

Permalink

"Me too. Ideally without my uncle around to make me feel embarrassed."

Permalink

She giggles. "It wasn't your fault. At any rate I think there was one conversation we should be having..."

Permalink

He nods solemnly. "Yes, true."

Permalink

"How comfortable are you with nonmonogamy?" she cuts to the chase.

Permalink

He makes a mock-horrified face. "Oh, my gosh! Is that what you wanted to talk about? I assumed we were going to have a long conversation about how we can better keep ourselves pure of sinful influences."

Permalink

Permalink

He giggles. "Are you telling me that you had something else in mind?" He bats his eyelashes at her.

Permalink

Permalink

He gives her an exaggeratedly flirtatious gaze.

Permalink

"That's not an answer," she points out.

Permalink

He giggles. "Alright, alright. Aaaand I'm totally comfortable with nonmonogamy."

Permalink

"Totally? That's underspecified."

Permalink

"Well, I've never tried before, but I'm willing to try?"

Permalink

She beams, but then turns serious. "We should figure out what we're comfortable with, though. I pretty much am incapable of feeling romantic jealousy—I will get sad if you meet someone else and leave me for them but... I would rather you be with someone who makes you happy and if that's not me I don't want artificial external ties like monogamy forcing it."

Permalink

"Aw... I hope I'm that good. But I don't know. When I think about it, I don't feel jealousy about you being with the twins... except if you three decided to break up with me, I guess."

Permalink

She grins again. "Then let's hope that doesn't happen."

Permalink

He grins right back. "Hope springs eternal. And... well, how do we proceed from this point on? I think they're interested in you."

Permalink

"In me?" she asks, raising an eyebrow.

Permalink

Blink. "Yes, of course."
