[The wariness makes her heart twist, and she pulls her hand away. She only hesitates for a second, though, forcing herself back into teasing mode. It's fine. Totally fine.]

Awesome.

[Duh.]

Uh, intense, impulsive. You know. Fiery.

[withmeinparadise]

S'a goat, right? Or a ram?

[ Look, astrology isn't real, why would he care about the details here. ]

Figured hard-headed'd be on the list.

[evocation]

I prefer determined.

[withmeinparadise]

Determined's good. Stubborn. Steadfast.

[evocation]

[Her lips quirk up a little.]

You like that I'm stubborn?

[withmeinparadise]

[ He shrugs. ]

Eh, s'not your worst quality.

[evocation]

[That's kind of nice to hear, honestly.]

Okay, so what's my worst quality?

[withmeinparadise]

Oh, no. [ Still light-hearted, teasing. ] That's like asking if an outfit makes you look fat.

[ The only winning move is not to play. ]

[evocation]

Come on, pick something. I won't get mad, I promise.

[She sounds sincere, at least.]

[withmeinparadise]

What if I can't think of anything?

[evocation]

Then you're a total liar.

[withmeinparadise]

I coulda told you that.

[evocation]

So you like everything about me, huh?

[She sounds completely skeptical.]

[withmeinparadise]

Everything.

[evocation]

[Either he's lying, or... maybe he really does have a crush on her. Huh.]

Hmm. Maybe you have bad taste.

[withmeinparadise]

[ There's definitely some drawbacks in there, but he'd rather flirt than commit to a real answer, so here they are. ]

Thought you already decided I did, with the, uh, Hawaiian shirts and all.

[evocation]

Well, yeah, but the shirt you're wearing today looks nice, so you get points.

[withmeinparadise]

You think so?

[ Look, it's not like he's going to say no to a compliment--though how seriously he's taking it is certainly up for debate. ]

[evocation]

Yeah, it's cute. It'd be nice to see you in something... you know, fancier, though.

[withmeinparadise]

Fancier.

[evocation]

Yeah, like... you know. A nice button up shirt. Or a suit.

[Wait.]

But not like, a snakeskin one.

[withmeinparadise]

I was gonna say, I kinda got my fill of suits for a while there.

[evocation]

What about a normal suit?

[withmeinparadise]

Plenty of those were normal suits.

[evocation]

Mm. Were they, though?
