[ His hands immediately go up, but he's laughing a little. ]

Joking. Totally joking.

Not a fan, I'm guessing?

[phaselocknroll]

I have a whole tirade about that stupid series, but you probably don't want to hear it.

[nostalgiabomb]

Maybe later in the night.

-- I'm glad you shot that down, though. I have no idea what I would've said if you were up for it.

[phaselocknroll]

"Oh no, look at the time I think I left a pie in the oven"?

[nostalgiabomb]

[ He laughs again. ]

Huh, alright. Definitely using that for next time.

[phaselocknroll]

[ She's learning that she likes to hear him laugh, and she grins ]

I am a master of non-awkward ways to get out of uncomfortable situations.

[nostalgiabomb]

And, apparently, someone who thinks I'm the kinda person who bakes pies. Which is kinda flattering, seeing as how the best thing I can do in a kitchen is boil water.

[phaselocknroll]

Join the club. I'm shit a baking, but I can make a mean salad, let me tell you.

[nostalgiabomb]

Yeah? And I can heat up bread. That's, like, half an actual meal, right there.

[phaselocknroll]

Hmm. How are your sandwich skills?

[nostalgiabomb]

Decent. It's pretty nuts, the way I can spread peanut butter.

[phaselocknroll]

Ignoring the pun, I think if we really had to, we could make an actual lunch.

[nostalgiabomb]

[ His smile spreads slowly. ]

We already figuring out date number two? We've barely even started our first one.

[phaselocknroll]

Goodness no. Peanut butter sandwiches should be reserved for third dates or later, for sure.

[nostalgiabomb]

[ He grins at that. ]

Oh, wow, I had no idea you were that old fashioned. When do we introduce jelly? Like, five months from now?

[phaselocknroll]

Oh my gosh. You can't just say jelly.

I am a lady.

[nostalgiabomb]

[ He claps a hand over his mouth, and lets out a muffled, ]

Shit. Sorry.

[phaselocknroll]

[ she tries so very hard to look stern, but she breaks out into a grin anyway ]

Speaking of food, what's for dinner?

[nostalgiabomb]

I was thinkin' we could try this pizza place that just opened nearby, if you were up for it. Otherwise, I dunno. McDonald's? Or is that too fancy.

[phaselocknroll]

Careful Peter, or you'll spoil me.

Pizza sounds fine.

[nostalgiabomb]

Hey, I wanna make sure I make a good impression on the first date, right? But cool, pizza it is, then.

[phaselocknroll]

I think you made a good impression when you agreed that Die Hard was a Christmas movie.

[nostalgiabomb]

I'm pretty sure that's already scientifically proven, like how the Earth revolves around the sun.

[phaselocknroll]

I know a few nuns who might disagree.

[nostalgiabomb]

Eh, what do they know? Anyone who doesn't think dinosaurs or cavemen are a thing are joyless people I don't wanna hang out with.
