[Derek lets out a laugh.]

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?

[drydrown]

...It depends on how interesting the non-crazy person is.

[blondferret]

[Ah, now we're getting somewhere.]

Well, what makes a person interesting to you?

[drydrown]

If I didn't know any better, I'd think you were trying to set me up.

[blondferret]

Well, I can't do that if I don't know what kind of person you find interesting. So answer the question: Why type of person do you find interesting?

[drydrown]

If I were really that interested, I'm sure I could find someone - somebody actually tried to set me up a while ago, though not much has come of it...

[blondferret]

Who did they try to set you up with? I mean, did they know you as well as I do?

[drydrown]

In fairness, no, they don't...

[whyyyyyy...]

[blondferret]

[Derek perks up at Cumore's answer.]

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?

[drydrown]

Well, now I'm just wondering who you would throw on me, based on what you know already.

[blondferret]

[Derek's quiet for a moment, mainly because there isn't anyone that comes to mind. Oops.]

Well... do you prefer guys or girls? Or both?

[drydrown]

[...He just sort of. Stares. For a moment.]

Well, I prefer men. Though I won't completely rule out women, either.

[...]

I appreciate the lack of assumption, I suppose.

[blondferret]

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.

[drydrown]

...I'll keep that in mind if I ever decide I want to find a woman, I suppose.

[blondferret]

Now men... huh...

[Derek pretends to think, because again, no one actually comes to mind.]

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...

[drydrown]

Well, if I decide that I'm actually interested in anyone, I imagine you'll know about it. I'm not about to discuss it with Jaeger, after all.

[You know, the weird German man from the party.]

[blondferret]

Jaeger... the one other person who came to your birthday party? Let me guess, he's the one who tried to set you up earlier?

[drydrown]

Please. I wouldn't take his romantic advice if he insisted the world depended on it, he's dating a former supervillain.

[blondferret]

[Derek's mouth drops a bit.]

A former supervillain? Are you serious? Then, who was it who tried to set you up?

[drydrown]

Some college student that I talk to sometimes.

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.

[blondferret]

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.

[drydrown]

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.

[Anyway.]

That said, yes, I would absolutely kill you.

[blondferret]

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.

[Extremely flirty would be more accurate.]

We've already been on two dates.

[drydrown]

Derek. You had to ask me if I like men. You're so straight it pains me, I wouldn't be interested even if you weren't with a woman at the exact second.

That said, congratulations on the dating, I suppose.

[blondferret]

[Loud laughter escapes Derek's mouth at ,"You're so straight it pains me." Give him a minute to calm down Cumore.]

Sorry... found that funny...

But thanks I guess. I have no idea where it's going to be honest and well... she's really forward. Which isn't bad but... flirting has been interesting. I'm sometimes mentally panicking on how to respond.
