The Tower Of Babble...(babble)
*crossing the room to my sofa*
Inside
"Eh I mean, look I'm not so deluded as to live my entire life based on—no we're fine," she felt a little discouraged that you proceeded more seriously, rather than handshake her offering to make a joke out of it.Moreso you felt avoidant, like rather than even acknowledge that she coulda mis-stepped, or even correct her by confronting what happened and clarifying that it was not a problem, you just glided past it.
Typical water sign!"Yeah, I mean my Neptune is in retrograde so it's time for new beginnings, and also on July 5th, Cancer sees a new moon in my fifth house — the house of pleasure."
This doesn't mean a damn thing to you, does it? Qalli's hands lowered, bringing down her own barrier in hopes that she might inspire you to mirror the same — in the abstract, anyway.
Eyes up and open, a subtle twist of latent anxiety as, well, even the slightest interest in her interests felt encouraging.
"…penny for your thoughts?"

He brought no more attention to the tab after it was paid. Out of sight, out of mind.You tap your fingers together, and he produces his tongue, scraping it against his upper row of teeth before biting down on it for a second. A test, a need. He purses his lips together, which could be seen as disappointment.
But then it kinda breaks, and he grins a bit. You obviously didn't mean anything by it, and far be it from him from being an over-reactive child to a word.
"...Bingo. Cancer."
He points at your own tapping nails, and his grin expands just a bit.
"I'm not up on my zodiacs, what that mean? Cancer-Pisces play nice, or nah?"
amazing!

Qalli swallowed with a little difficulty as you took the privilege of paying for dinner, her eyes awkwardly pivoting from the bill back to your face, taking in the mental replay of your reaction.Her hands came up, elbows on the table, a gentle baby-rattle of noise of her index fingers pointed at each other, timidly tapping the lacquer of her fingernails against one another.
"Uh…"
Well, maybe your language for dissipating awkwardness was humor, as you already demonstrated.
"…Cancer? Are you a lil crabbi boi?"
Hopeful, like there had to be some predictive power to these signs, right? Please don't dismantle her entire worldview on the first date.

He offers an audible laugh, tilting his head away as you talk about hosting a seance for his cred."Maaaan, I'm just gonna keep sayin' Zooted, Grilled...
Shit, maybe I'll include immersed though. Sounds warm, sounds cuddly."
He nods along to your story about Dallas, and he points...
"Oh shit you went to that?! How was it?
And yeah, if you like the music at all, I promise the live show better, feelme?"The waiter brings the check over, And brix reaches into his pocket to pull out the folded wad of bills.. He peels a $100 off the top of it and puts it over the check without really looking at what they charged for it. It was the City after all, a place stuck in the early 2000s. That should cover it.
"Keep it."
He glances up to the waiter with a grin and then brings his eyes back to yours.
That is, until, of course, You SHOUT 'Leo' at him, and he physically recoils from you. From lean forward to lean back, body up against the back-rest of the chair now.
"Wha?"
He blinks. He wasn't so devoid of emotional maturity that the name of the man would cause him to have a mental break, but your hands go to your face, hiding your mouth and the face you were making... Your eyes looked apologetic enough but he shakes his head softly...
"...Nah, not a Leo."

You know this mane was designed to block 5G signals and prevent the uptake of useful information."If you feel like a second date we can plan to hold a seance for the ghost of your clout — got you out here speaking proper and—OH! I wanna revise my answer from earlier, I traveled to an Eclipse party at Dallas — my little brother goes to school there. It's like a place and time that was fuckin' magical. I know it ain't, like, Barbados or whatever other exotic locale you might be imagining…"
Really, she could bring out all the things she had for that particular outing.
"Wait, are you saying I should come to one of your shows?" A small rise of hope had her sitting a little straighter, though her eyes fixed to that distraction.
If she knew you better, maybe it would have been more apparent, or fixed to some educated guess as to just what that pause meant, teetering until you circled back to a joke that dissipated the threat of their first earnest, meaningful exchange.
Qalli interpreted it as just not being comfortable with honesty, just yet.
You asked:
‘So, I saw on your bag you're into astrology… guess my—’
"LEO!"Oh, OH no. The moment her answer, her HONEST guess to your zodiac sign left her lips, Qalli seemed to immediately sense she mis-stepped, because yes while your personality screamed 'Leo' to her, weren't you just talking about this person-named-Leo somewhere in your life, in a position that was not charming to your energy?
The fork clattered back to the plate loudly as she dropped in on the path of both of her hands rising to her lips to mask her gasp, like she just realized something dreadful.
"OH… ohmygosh I'm so sorry, I uh…"
