Sadde is home; it's a Friday evening, his shift is over, and there's no school. He's reading a book, lying on his bed in his small-but-tidy apartment.
He is also quite naked, because it's his place and why not?

Well, Sadde won't decide for him, he is now aware of her thoughts on the matter and can make an informed decision whenever he likes.

Oh good. That is how kisses ought to go.
Eventually he yawns and says, "I should either go home or take a nap."

"Mmm, yes, and I have school tomorrow so I should probably sleep as well." She reviews his phrasing in her head, then adds: "You can crash here if you want but I only have the one bed, which is good for kissing but I don't know how good it is for two people sleeping."

"I'm pretty small but I'm not that small." He hugs her, smiling. "I'll go home. See you later."

And off he goes. To go home and nap and wake up and knock off the second half of that math textbook and draw up more weapon designs and read the rest of Shakespeare's plays and eat breakfast with Titania and have another nap...
He's a busy man.
But he does eventually email Sadde with a proposed time for their second date.

And so will Ashras, half in costume - wearing street clothes under one of his many-holstered coats, and carrying one each of the wands he has produced so far: brass for force, silver for stun, copper for lightning.

He kisses Sadde's mask, too. Just because.
"It's good to see you again. Let's destroy things," he says cheerfully.

Sadde giggles. "It's funny when you kiss my mask," they say. Their voice is slightly different, not the same as when they're a girl but not the same as when they're a boy either. "What do you want to destroy first?" they ask, lowering Ashras to the ground

"My plan is to first have you make versions of my existing wands at standard half-staff, staff, and cannon sizes, to check that there isn't anything funny going on with the scaling," he says. "This will incidentally involve throwing force blasts and lightning bolts at things. Stun bolts, too, but those don't do much unless they hit something with a nervous system, at which point they, well, stun it. After that I want to see how you go about destroying things, and then I can think about having you make me new wand designs so I don't have to waste non-conjured materials testing them."

"This is likely to attract attention, even here. Maybe we should go out in the ocean and destroy conjured things?"

So Glam leads them to the ocean, creating ice platforms that melt after they pass them by, eventually getting far enough away that Glam's comfortable with something more solid than ice.
