Neither have I. She's pretty intimidating.

Yes, and it's not a familiar pursuit or one that I've given particular consideration to.

She's been largely spoken for, you understand.

i don't have the first idea who she's sleeping with her, Kurt, though I'd guess maybe Logan. It definitely isn't me and she's certainly not 'spoken for' in that capacity.

I meant more historically.
It just seems like it's not the sort of thing I could address out of the blue.

You're not together? At all?

We're not having sex. Different thing.

I suppose that's true enough.

Why?

because our relationship was struggling when she died. Because I wanted to die when I first got here. Because I miss Emma. Because her feelings about Emma are conflicted. Because my sexual preferences have... Intensified over the years and she's young. Because we love each other, whether it happens at all. And if it does it's going to take time.

I see.
That's all very reasonable.

And why encourage me to pursue her? You've mentioned aspects of us that are similar, I'm just not sure why that might bring about your expressed conclusion.

Because I like you and you're hot.

Then that is between you and I, is it not?

Not that I'm rejecting the possibilities, either way. I'm admittedly indulgent, and I like you both and you're both extremely gorgeous.

There's also the part where youreferred to her as 'spoken for'.

Historically, yes.

I worry a lot about intrusion, even where it almost certainly is not necessary.

And maybe that makes it worth a 'joke'?

Sorry?

If nothing else it clarifies my feelings on the matter.

And those are... the same already expressed? Different?

You are not intruding. If anything we intruded on you

Ah, no. You are fine. Where I am concerned, it has always been malleable.

I hardly considered the shape of it before I got here, even. I've had to have to potential and longevity of my own relationship pointed out to me more than once now.

But your relationship with him's obviously been long term?

Yes.

Doesn't sound like you have a longevity problem to me.

Yes, well I suppose I was going by
I don't know
Cumulative intimacy moments?

We're great friends.
I know that's ridiculous with everything laid out as it is here, but it's how I've thought of it for the majority of the time.

Anyway, it's not worth anyone else worrying over. It's silly.

It isn't silly.

Well, it at least isn't serious enough for anyone else to have to pay attention.

For what it's worth, I appreciate the thought that we might better integrate, if that's correct wording or a correct read at all. I feel aside, sometimes, in all of this. Not that I don't have my own things going on, mind!

Or, you know... Maybe I just like the attention.

What I mostly want is you to feel like you're welcome and no one's.... 'spoken for'.

We all have our things going on.
