this isn't even top level sappy![ he's not even trying this time, actually. then again, he's normally not trying when he seems to fluster steve. he usually feels kind of lame otherwise and like he doesn't know what he's doing. ]
it is glittery! it's like nature's glitter. glitter is the herpes of arts and crafts and sand is just as annoying!
we can still go to the beach. i just want to know about it so i can pack right.
Pretty sappy. ( or Steve's exposure to sappy is limited. look, it's just nice to have someone say shit like that, instead of wondering if he's feeling too much or being too much. ) I'm pretty fucking happy how it turned out, too.
Glitter's not so bad. I guess it does get everywhere. Played 7 Minutes in Heaven with Samantha Fitzpatrick once, spent the rest of the party somehow wearing as much glitter as she was.
( ... . . . . shit. should he have not said that? is it weird to talk about making out with a girl when he is now exclusively making out with one boy in particular? )
That's fair. No beach. That's still plenty of options.
good. it'd be pretty awkward if we were still not on the same page, huh?[ as if he wasn't completely convinced they'd never be on the same page??? edward, really. ]
see!!! glitter gets everywhere even and sad is nature's glitter. i remember a costume party last year where samantha fitzpatrick was trying to do the full-body glitter version of jem and the holograms so if it was that one, i would be more impressed if you escaped scot free. [ is it weirder for him to comment? unclear??? what are the rules of boyfriends???? ]
I don't know. I guess it was awkward. ( constantly toeing around something instead of just owning up to it. but they'd sure managed for quite awhile!! )It was okay. Or it felt okay then. Good enough, at least. But this is better.
Oh shit, yeah. I remember that. Tina got busted just from the amount of glitter her mom found in the carpet. Hilarious. Looked cool, but no, she wasn't head-to-toe. Just eyes and hair. Boobs. ...Maybe the boobs was accidental.
No SURPRISE beach, I meant. ( if it's surprise date night, he'll pick something else!! ) Since when are you so into the beach? 2 seconds ago you were complaining about sand.
( living the DREAM? what a complete dope. it does set off the dumb doki sensations, though, so, maybe Eddie isn't the only dope. look, it is just kinda nice to be with someone that likes being with him?? leave him alone )
The dream, huh? You really wanted to make it official with a guy that wears a silly vest to peddle video tapes for a living?
Kinda prefer fooling around without all the glitter. But lipgloss wasn't so bad. Tasted good.
If you're not into the beach you don't gotta go to the beach, Ed.
[ apparently when he's not trying to be extra doki, eddie can throw all the dokis at steve. ]from the part where i have hot, great boyfriend who's a genuinely good person and isn't trying to punch me in public after making out with me in my van?
[ but now switching gears because as quickly as he turns one conversation into three, he can hyperfocus! ]
you warning me about the beach so i can prepare is meeting in the middle! and i want to do shit you like!!! you do shit i like all the time!!![ time for hyperbole! ]
yeah and you like it. [ also affectionate. clearly.
and now he's remembering that they got to an argument about sand from date ideas and him admitting steve's his first relationship. how even. ]i like the sound of that and i'm swooning.
good. my evil plan is working and cute? me? no way
it's going to be a weird schedule with some nights but tuesdays and fridays are looking open so i'll pencil you in for next tuesday if you're still only working in the morning? [ so he's got steve's schedule memorized? so what? that's what happens when you're living together in and dating. though he'd memorized that wayyyy before the dating thing was official. ]
( what a ridiculous evil plan. SEE? this motherfucker is so damn cute it's excruciating. )
Right now, anyhow. Maybe I'll do some nights if that's when you're working. ( it just makes SENSE that they both get their working over with at the same time, so they can not be working at the same time. it's not a big deal, just being PRACTICAL. )
Tuesday. It's a date. A date date, so you don't get cute with me about it.
( this is NOT a sarcastic "it's a date"!!! just for the record 😤 )
to drive you insane but that was like a sub... bullet or whatever.[ don't ask him what it's actually called, he didn't pay attention to that part of english class. ]
yeah? it'd be nice to match up. maybe i could convince you to stay in bed longer on the days we'd both have a night shift. [ instead of getting up and doing things like exercising!!! ]
tuesday. got it. a date date~ i'll put it on the calendar, mark it and everything. [ they don't have a shared calendar but actually they probably should for practical reasons. steve is definitely going to get back to their place to find a hand-made, very metal version of one pinned to the fridge -- it's arts and crafts time. ]
( well as someone who also didn't pay attention in english, ) A what now? ( in his head he's thinking sandwich ammo. which just can't be right. )
I'll see what I can do. Keith is always a dick about schedules. ...Well, he's a dick to me. Specifically.
You're such a dork. We don't have even have calendar. ( and, just in case "dork" doesn't seem openly fond, as it should, ) It's cute. You're cute. SO cute. Drives me nuts.
like if you have a, the parts that go into making a? or something? [ it makes sense in his head, ok? this is the blind leading the blind. ]
i'd say suck up to him but he's a dick and i don't support going out of ones way for a supervisor in any case
we don't have a calendar yet. yet is the keyword here, babe. [ it will be metal as fuck. ] we're about to take a big step in this whole relationship thing.
and you're pretty cute yourself so i'm trying to catch up. [ maybe others wouldn't be really endeared by the honey-do lists or aggressive reminders to be less of a gremlin and more of a person left around the apartment but eddie's weird enough to be very charmed by them! ]
Uh... okay. ( the blind not going anywhere with the blind, more like. Steve does not feel any more knowledgeable about sub bullets than he was before. but that's okay. even if they do sound kinda delicious. )
You wanna get a calendar? ( that is also cute. far more organized than Steve is used to Eddie being. so the fact he suggested it on his own is like... layered cuteness? compounding cuteness. cuteness mixed with pride. if that makes sense. )
Real smooth, Munson. I don't think you got that much ground to cover, for the record.
yeah? i figured it might be easier to keep track of all the shit we have going on or might have going on in the future? [ which, yeah, so he's thinking about a future together. call him a hopeless romantic but what is happening is they're getting a handmade calendar out of it. ]
that's subjective
i disagree and will stand my ground here. don't make me bite you. [ which is a weird thread to send because it's not really a fucking threat, but pride stops him from back-peddling even if he groans re-reading that. ]you better not be laughing at that.
[ he is 100% aware that there's a 200% chance he's gotten a laugh out of steve. ]
( the calendar thing is cute. Steve might try and find a Metallica one or something, don't say he's not occasionally a romantic. however, there's a much more pressing thing to discuss right about now. )
[ a bought calendar will probably be necessary, actually. after all, eddie doesn't really remember which months have thirty or more days in them.
he lets out a laugh at the response, smiling at his phone. ]a good time, huh?
that mean i'm off no neck biting probation?[ so he got carried away when steve had a shift he picked up at the pool one time. forgive a guy, would you? (it was not one time.) ]

Do I miss ... lip gloss? When I'm making out? Is that the question?
Compromise is meeting in the middle, not just dealing with shit you don't like because I like it.
