[Knowing Steph, it's probably something extra embarrassing.]
yeah, we're with Kes. It's fine, it's not like she minds, but. Not really any alone time. It's like having your little sister watch all of your dates. It's weird.
[Sometimes it's really weird. He loves Kesara to death, but seriously. Sometimes he can feel her looking at him. Judging. Assessing.
When Zell asks about what's special between them, a few things cross Zach's mind.]
[ This make shim glad for the company he keeps. Their "babysitters" give them a great deal of privacy when they can.
He's looking up at Jim to catch him making faces. Making faces in return as he glaces down at the tablet to see that part about sex. Choking and fumbling with his tablet. WOW ZACH TMI.
A quick look up at Jim, and then he's nonchalantly turning around on the desk. Nothing to see here at all. ]
Is that your No. I don't want to know.
[ He almost asked if that's Zach's strong point. MOVING ALONG ]
I mean like is there something special. Stories shared or inside jokes. Something that reminds you of her or will remind her of you.
[Did Zell almost ask him about their sex lives does he want to know? Zach gives the tablet a surprised look, but lets it go - if he doesn't want to know, he shall not.
But that is totally his specialty. Probably. He's trying his hardest, okay.]
i mean there's a couple But I'm not sure i can turn any of them into romantic things, it's not a cute nickname that makes sense or anything so i have no idea how i could use that
[Sorry Zell, he's not helping much, considering he was the one asking for info. But he doesn't have anything to start scribbling the word 'absolutely' everywhere. He can't really get a tattoo, either.]
Zell fails at being discreet big time. After a short chat with Jim, he responds to Zach again.]
Sorry about that. Jim says he doesn't want us talking about his dick.
[ Which isn't an invitation. Sending the next message quickly after. ]
You can always write it on things. Make something for her and put it on there. Or collect candles. Candles work pretty well. What about something from your world? Jim and I exchanged coins from our own worlds.
i.....don't want to talk about jim's dick, either? where did that even come from
[He's thought about candles, actually. Make a night a little more romantic, but it felt cheesy. Maybe he should anyway.]
we come from basically the same world, we use the same kind of money and stuff candles though, that's a good idea if i could i'd like, cook her dinner or something fancy like that
Kes is pretty dead set on going back through her tunnels, downtown would be too much of a detour everything in this town works against anything we wanna do
[ He knows, dude. From their short time with her back when everyone had their personal monster following them. ]
I think as long as you make an effort to do something with her. Like Jim and I shared a candy bar once. That was pretty nice. She likes information and making lists. Maybe you can help her look stuff over?
[That doesn't even sound like a bad idea. He doesn't have much in ways of writing implements, but that's something he can do.
Zell's onto something, with this stuff about just. Sharing stuff. It worked last time. It doesn't feel romantic, but maybe, just giving Steph whatever she wants is the most romantic he can do.]
You could even leaves notes with your thoughts on each thing. Even if it's just to state someone is the biggest loser here. That way it's more personal. More you. With all the shit that has happened here it's easy to forget the positive. So, having something there for when they can't be around or something to look at and smile again from the memories is great.

Concentrating on the romance talk for now. ]
The grocery store has a lot good stuff for cooking.
Kesara might want to check out the eyes in that direction.
[ In case he needs a reason to nudge them in that direction without spoiling any possible surprises. ]
