brb all, a few minutes
I like watching the fireflies. And listening to the crickets and frogs.

"Oh no. I'm gonna start asking you about the mysteries of the universe here soon. Please stop me."Has to remember to breathe she's laughing so much.

*grins*. You really are a miracle worker in your hardens. Up until recently, my home was the place plants went to die. *Laughs*

Oh, I haven't the 'nerd' gene. Far from it. But I am something of an amateur physicist .. love quantum mechanics and the cosmos.
Giggles insanely.

"No you're fine — I'm not like one of those vegans…"Oh, but you were still spinning. The bashful date-night Qalli took a back seat for a moment as she reached across the table and took your hand.
"Relax… mama ain't gonnna starve or anything. You think I haven't navigated the carnist establishment-space before? I'll worry about my own diet," The overall chaos of her presentation contrasted the careful order of other aspects — sharply inked eyes, precisely threaded brows, and she picked up her bag to go through what sounded like an inventory of things in her lap, some brand-less bag that might have started its life as something cheap and practical vegan-leather but has since grown the human moss of colorful hand-knit veneer and buttons.
You've seen it before but closer up, now. A Bernie pin and several Seven-leaf emblems. Qalli pulled a tiny prescription bottle of completely innocent, non-psychoactive medication and dumped a couple small white pills before setting the bag back down.
"I mean I'm kinda all over the place, it's so hard to decide what to do? Mmmmm, I used to do watercolors with my ex-boyfriend, and then he got caught laundering money for some—Ugh it's a headache even trying to explain it. Anyway I dunno, I'm just living at home right now."
Her busy hands and meandering attention circled back to you to get your reaction to her life situation before she considered your story about how your girl was the one that was supposed to put your profile together.
"…wow, so she was going to get involved with allathat? Like, were you guys trying to find a Unicorn or something?"
"Yeah. It feels like a really good day when I get to see you, too."Smiles knowingly.

(not discussing hemispheres, just not)
Smiling, listening, admiring the beauty beside me and slowly cloaking in darkness,PUlling out a small flashlight, placing it in your hand, yeah
SHine it on what you want to, roses, lavendar, bourbon strawberries.
eyes still on Seana
i'm massively busy, but now it's a good day

"Oh, my God. Talk nerdy to me, baby."Laughs like a loon.
sits down on the edge of the pool, and eases my feet in up to my knees
the hemline of my dress spilling into the water and darkeningpalms press to the warm stone at pool's edge
spine straightening as i take a moment to look aroundthe evening quiet, save for the hum of a few late insects
the gentle slosh of the water as it laps against its own boundaries
"How are you doing today, reece{S}?"Smiles at you somewhat dreamily.
