i never said how long ~i~ last, so i dont know what the fuck you're talking about and yes, i have timed myself cant believe you havent, someone needs to come revoke your nerd card
fine
[Oh god, let the game of gay chicken fucking continue. Like hell is Steve going to back down for an obvious challenge.]
i mean, that's just data, though its different when you're trying to ~last~
[They're both losers, that's what they're gonna get out of this. Too late now, though.]
you just said "longer than 20 seconds", for all i know you clocked in at 20.339
( this conversation is spiraling wildly out of control, and while there's so much opportunity for one to laugh it off, walk away and just out the phone down... somehow even after the next rung of escalation, Steve gets another text back. )
okay, fine. you got a better idea?
( Peter has no idea what he's doing, but he's not backing down either. )
you never asked for clarification or are you asking for proof, parker?
[ Oh, it's gone completely off the rails. Steve had definitely not been expecting this when he'd texted Peter to distract him, but distracted he is indeed.]
well, i dunno, you're the scientist here im just saying that a lab data and field data are two different things
[Steve doesn't want to admit that he's out of his depth, but hell if he's backing down either.]

where are you?
no subject
( and thankfully curiosity is only bad for cats, it's never ever been a problem for boys amid sexual exploration. )
home, but my aunt is sleeping. you?
( he can't decide if he hopes Steve is alone or if there's parents present that would prevent them from being idiots. )
no subject
cruising
my house is empty
[Oh, Peter, it's a nice wish but a losing bet. Steve's parents are never present. Nothing will prevent them from being idiots.]
you're welcome to come over
no subject
okay. i'll be over soon. i guess i have to find a stopwatch first
( for sake of appearances alone. Peter is well aware that the timer will be pretty irrelevant when they are face to face. )
