"I pride myself on my reputation for giving good presents and I will be very sad if there are zero-g games as boring as golf."

"Do you actually know what golf is or are you just assuming that my taste is impeccable?"

Permalink

"I have seen golf referenced as tedious in several contexts at this point. I couldn't tell you the rules, but your taste is shared!"

Permalink

"Yeah, of my opinions 'golf is boring' is not a very original one."

Permalink

"I will be very trusting of your eccentric opinions, too, don't worry."

"Figure skating is overrated."

Permalink

"Oh, we have that, if it's the same thing. Elf figure skating is not overrated, it's stunning."

Permalink

"Should I watch some Elf figure skating?"

Permalink

"I wouldn't go so far as 'best form of entertainment' but it's awfully fun."

Permalink

"Recommend me a sample."

Permalink

So he recommends some Elf figure skating routines.

And Cam takes notes. "For whenever I feel like watching something. For whatever it's worth human figure skating - or daeva - gets pretty good too, people just get really excited over the same handful of tricks executed in every routine. ...Fairies cheat, they don't count."

"We practically cheat. There are blessings for it."

Permalink

"Then," says Cam, "I will judge the skaters by fairy standards, see if I don't."

Permalink

"How terribly unfair of you! We cheat, we don't have fully general telekinesis!"

Permalink

Wag. "Well, the fairies aren't supposed to outright fly while they're skating, so surely it evens out?"

Permalink

"How will I ever explain to my citizens that I picked a boyfriend who has unreasonably high standards for their figure skating? It'll be ruinous, politically!"

Permalink

...snort.

Kiss.

Kiss!

"Findekáno asked how much I was planning to have public and I said that was a complicated problem which he probably had good insight into and which I didn't want to discuss with him ever, sorry. I suppose that was childish."

"...how much are you planning to have public?"

Permalink

"That's a complicated problem which you probably have some insight into and which I am willing to discuss with you, congratulations."

Permalink

"I wouldn't actually object to you discussing it with Findekáno if that seems like it might be useful, you know."

Permalink

"I appreciate that. I - mine's not dramatic, that doesn't mean he's over it, and he'd be tremendously helpful but I'm going to be leaning on him hard enough in a professional capacity and leaning on him in a personal capacity in addition to that seems probably unfair."
