Pick a number, evens or odds. If I guess it wrong, you name your prize. But if I guess it right, then you have to answer a question of mine. Sound good?

I've got my number. Let's hear it.

[Or at least that his little game would do what he really intended it to — let Yuri choose where to set the implicit boundary of their conversation, inviting more questioning from him with a win, or turning it back on him with a loss.
He would've won either way, probably, but here they are.]
Here's your question:
If you knew for sure, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that you were guaranteed to get it — what would you want? From this. Us. Me.
no subject
( ... He's really doing this then, is he? )
Alright.
I'd want all of you. I'd want your sleepy grin in the morning, that space on your lap whenever I like, and I'd want to complain about your muddy boots and your useless bets while you try to kiss me like you did at the lake. I'd want sex — Saints, so much sex — and everything in between, and your honest counsel when I'm trying to do something new for Abyss, or the gang, or the halfway house.
I'd want to earn your trust, and I'd want to learn how to give you all of mine. With you by my side, and me by yours, I think we'd have a real shot at making something of ourselves.
Of our dreams.
If you could imaging having a life like that with someone like me, then. That's it. You and me, together.
Us.
no subject
But what you just said there, all of that...it's not that different than what we'd be doing already, is it? It's not like we'd have to change all that much. We'd still be us, just apparently having a lot more sex while we're at it.
So I guess what I'm getting at is, does it still seem so scary? When everything you're dreaming of is just...us, being us?
[1/2]
But, you're right. Put like that it sounds like the easiest thing in the world — but then you're probably more used to having lovers than I am.
( Oh. Wait. )
... Assuming you understood I meant lovers, obviously. If you're thinking friends who have sex, then
[2/2]
I'm spoiling it, aren't I?
no subject
Listen. How about we don't try to put a name on it too fast. 'Cause I know as soon as we stop talking you're gonna go off and read this over again twenty times and try to make a plan and think through — I hate to say it, boss, but you know I'm right — every angle.
(And before you get to thinking that you're the only one, I'll tell you I'm over here trying not to cheer so loud I wake up the neighbors, so it's not just you.)
All I'm saying is, let's both just say we're gonna try, and we'll figure it out as we go. All right? Let's be us, and we can figure out what that means a little more every step of the way.
no subject
Anyway.
Just trying, yeah?
That, I can do.
no subject
So let's get back to that part about you eyeing me up, huh? I mean, I'm not surprised. This iron bod's irresistible — it was only a matter of time, ha!
no subject
Keep dreaming, pal. Maybe if you play your cards right, I'll tell you the story of when I first noticed you next year.
no subject
Wait, hold on. What if I want to know now?
no subject
And you're just gonna have to wait.

You know how at the lake, I kept calling you "gorgeous"?

Sweet dreams, gorgeous.
