What's so surprising about it...? I'm fairly sure you've noticed that I'm not the most social person on the planet. For the love of god, my life revolves around paperwork and I'm happy about it.
Well, that makes it a tiny bit easier... knowing you swing both ways. I mean, trying to find someone of the females sex that is on the app that is around our age... practically impossible. I mean, most of the girls on the app are jail bait for us.
Yes, at least YOU have some common sense. Like, you need to find someone who... hmmm... lets see... ah! Someone who can appreciate you great personality. Not take you for granted. I mean, you're great at listening, you don't judge, you're logical, and you can mix drinks. Oh, and you play the violin! You're musical too!
[A beat.]
And you have a six pack. Physically you got things working for you if you were trying to find a date. I mean, I suppose I could do what Jirou did and put an add on the app and tell people your available, but you'd probably kill me, friend on not.
Honestly, if I had any interest in pointlessly pursuing straight men I'd ask if you're interested, with a description like that. As it stands I love myself, so I'll leave it at I'm...flattered, I suppose.
What? I can't admire my best friend's great qualities? How will I be a proper wing man if I can't talk you up? And as flattering as that idea is, I've been seeing someone. Her names is Lillian and she's... interesting.

[Derek lets out a chuckle and then takes a swig of his beer.]
I'm only joking you know. It's really none of my business if you date or not. I'm... just surprised.

It's just that most men will not what kind of person they're into by the time they're our age. Or at least, think they do.
[A beat.]
Are you saying you would rather do paperwork than go on a date. Like a date with a non-crazy person?

Well, what makes a person interesting to you?

See Alex, that was your problem. You didn't have ME helping you out. Shouldn't you have a friend that actually KNOWS you be the one to set you up?

Well... do you prefer guys or girls? Or both?
no subject
Well, I prefer men. Though I won't completely rule out women, either.

I appreciate the lack of assumption, I suppose.

To be honest, I don't know that many single guys and the ones I do know... I wouldn't think they'd be your type. Hmmm, what a conundrum...

A former supervillain? Are you serious? Then, who was it who tried to set you up?
no subject
And yes, Jaeger is dating a former supervillain. I'm not sure why I expected him to have common sense and not do that, but here we are.

[Anyway.]
That said, yes, I would absolutely kill you.

[Extremely flirty would be more accurate.]
We've already been on two dates.
