FROM: chidori.kaname@cdc.org The idea is novel and romantic but I don't see myself settling down with kids either
FROM: chidori.kaname@cdc.org Thanks Shinobu. I've been worried he might think I've stopped liking him because I don't want to say "I love you." Sometimes he's really over the top.
FROM: chidori.kaname@cdc.org Like for V-day I gave him 5 rolls of incense because he can't eat chocolate, and I told him about White Day that has a rule of triple return. He gave me 60 candles. That's 12 times what I gave him!
[Ah let's not... mention he also gave Kaname her dead mother's watch.]
FROM: chidori.kaname@cdc.org You know I'm not dumb enough to light them all at once. The scents would clash.
[What she doesn't know is that trackers learn how to breath fire...]
FROM: chidori.kaname@cdc.org Yeah I won't say it until I'm comfortable. I've just never had anyone so interested that wasn't a complete sicko. I like it, and I don't want to lose it.
It's something weird like survival of the best genes or w/e. But I don't even know if we'd match up like that or not. I tried taking a peek once but you can't get a good look when you're being subtle.
I'm just going to assume from what you said before, that you're not talking about some threesome.
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
But geez, fine. If you've gotta tell someone, I guess at least tell someone who isn't going to be dumb enough to accidentally let the rest of the crew know.
FROM: chidori.kaname@cdc.org I've been cranky lately so I haven't met many of them. Hange also came to me to give a recommendation. I trust your taste.

Unless you count kids I "adopted" for the sole purpose of terrifying them counts, I don't plan on having any of my own either.

Damn. I guess if a rover suddenly bursts into flames some night, I know it's yours.
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
You shouldn't feel pressured to do something you're not ready for, though, even if he lavishes you with attention.

Let's just hope your rovermates don't go nuts with the candles then.

As long as you're not doing something like punching him in the face, I think you'll be fine.
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
I mean, I don't fully understand how the whole courtship thing works for his species, but that seems like a constant across everyone.
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
Or most people, anyway.
no subject
His species fight before they have sex so it'd probably come across as a pick up line.
no subject
Oh. Well, there you go, then. Slap him hard across the fact when you're really into him, I guess.
no subject
IT'S A FIGHT TO THE DEATH I CAN'T SURVIVE THAT.
no subject
That's the most counter-productive way I've ever heard of to do it.
In that case, maybe don't do that. Not unless you're into the whole fighting to the death thing.
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
Don't worry, I won't no-bro you.

no subject
I guess that much kind of makes sense, at least.
...but yeah, I guess that's another thing to consider. And for the record? If you do get a better look, I don't wanna know.
no subject
If you tell me I have to go to Noh-Varr for that kind of gossip I might cry.
no subject
From what I know, I'm pretty sure he's going to be far more of an expert on that kind of thing than I ever will.
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
He'd probably be able to give you way better advice concerning those kinds of matters too.
no subject
No thank you. If Noh-Varr and I have an encounter involving any form of "dick" ever again it will be too soon.

I drew a dick on his face with glowing fruit juice and he made it weird.
FROM: chidori.kaname@cdc.org
I might just keep it to myself. Most people are blabbermouths. :(
no subject
The kind of weird that I need to deal with him personally?
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
Better safe than sorry. Plus? You know probably at least half of the instructors read everything we say on these things, right?
no subject
FROM: chidori.kaname@cdc.org
Nope! We're good!
no subject
If you say so.
no subject
So how've you been?
no subject
Fine, I guess? I'm not dead, so that's always a good sign.
no subject
Like any of our new recruits?
no subject
You mean like or like like?
[What has this conversation even turned into.]
no subject
As in "tolerable and not completely incompetent."
no subject
Oh.
Yeah. A couple. Why?
no subject

To a point.
