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.
[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.
[Hey, it's not like he minds, you seem like you could use it once in a while.]
Unfortunately, it isn't as though I have much advice for you; relationships aren't really my thing. Hoping for something long-term, though, or is this just on a whim of yours?
[Derek takes another sip of is beer before answering.]
I don't know really. As a person, I suppose I'm one for a long term relationship but... Lillian is definitely a flirt. For one thing, I've seen on the network that she flirts with other people. And when I started to show interest in her, the flirting was instant. Sexual innuendos, which such forwardness I'm not really use to. My ex was definitely not like that. I'm... not sure how to react to her really. She's fun, interesting to talk to but, I'm not sure if long term is what she's looking for. I'm kind of just... [Derek shrugs.] kind of going with the flow. She's definitely a welcomed detraction. Lillian... helps me take my mind off of... well her.
That may be an accurate assumption. I mean, how log does one wait after getting out of a six and a half year long relationship? I still have some of her clothing in my closet and the ring. Not that I haven't tried to get rid of the clothes, but I can't seem to get in contact with her to get her forwarding address in LA. And I don't even know what to do with the ring.
Though seriously, what should I do with the ring? Should I just pawn the ring off? I'm thinking about what if in the future someone finds it in my sock drawer and misunderstands.

[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...

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.
no subject
That said, congratulations on the dating, I suppose.

It also begs the question of how many people you foresee going through your sock drawer, but the point still stands.

There was this one particular girl I had a fling with who was uncomfortably nosy. In general girls are nosy...
