[Ringo seems excitable and earnest, but. . . not naive. he doubts he has to tell her that not all human experiences are good ones. that some of them cut and bite into you so deeply that they leave behind scars that you can never figure out how to heal. no matter how hard you try. no matter how far you run]
[but even if she weren't? well. . .]
[. . . maybe for once, he finds he doesn't want to ruin such honest and pure excitement with his own cynicism]
[his response is light!]
Yeah, I imagine it's way easier to carpe the diem when your life isn't literally on the line. Who would have thought??
[She laughs at that, because, well. He's changing the terms, but she can't find that she minds it, because this is the most amenable he's seemed this whole time.]
Deal! Promise it won't blow your mind too much! ... Probably!

Is that why you're here? To "enjoy the moment?"
no subject
This felt like a pretty unique opportunity to hit a lot of 'em, you know?
no subject
And how would you say it's been so far?
no subject
[Earnestly.]
Getting to get to know so many people without there being some sort of big looming danger is way more fun!

So it wasn't all bad.
no subject
Do these adventures have something to do with the other weird part of your profile?
. . . the devil summoning??
no subject
Devil summoning, handling demons, saving the world from destruction... the usual sort of stuff!
no subject
I need a rain check on that one for next week.
[but. . . he does want to ask about it]
[later. after he is fully acclimated]
no subject
[No problems there. After all:]
That's when I'm supposed to cash in on that kiss, too. So we can knock both out at once.
no subject
Wait-- you're still going to do that? I thought you may have forgotten??
no subject
[DON'T BE RUDE.]
I wouldn't forget that easily!
no subject
Does mine really matter in the grand scheme of things. . .?
no subject
[???]
no subject
[that actually gets an honest-to-god genuine smile out of him]
Stupid question, I guess.
[A BIT EXASPERATED!]
I won't go back on my promise, but-- but! [jabs a finger at her] We talk about the devil summoner thing first.
And then. . . maybe.
no subject
Deal! Promise it won't blow your mind too much! ... Probably!
no subject
[it will blow his mind a lot I'm sorry Ringo]
no subject
[Quite frankly.]
no subject
Because neither can I.
[at least. . . they're both honest]
no subject
Guess we'll find out next week!
