[ HE DOESN'T KNOW EITHER STOP THIS IS NOT HIS FAULT also dont think we're not getting to otome young lady
anyway, with his face still in his hands: ]
She said - Beau, she had to like, pour a shot even to talk about it. I didn't even know she knew. [ it was like visible from the moon but okay go off i guess ] I think she "it's-not-you-it's-me"'d me? I'm pretty sure that's what happened, which is fine, I'm way more about her being comfortable and I'm not an ass, and so that was totally fine. I'm glad I wasn't, like, traumatizing her or anything like that, so I figured it'd be cool, we were fine, I'd try to... be more subtle, I guess - she like, backed off where she was touching my hand, too, so, boundary set, totally got the message, crystal clear.
...but then like five minutes later, she told me "it's not like I don't want to be with you" and I have no idea what to do at all.
