Yeah, I'll admit that I noticed the trying. I do enjoy it.

[webdesigned]

then i guess i will... keep trying? this kinda got away from me, i am so glad we are texting and you can't see the dumb shade of tomato i am right now

[helpdesk_hero]

I have faith in your ability to learn and grow.

[webdesigned]

i do appreciate that. maybe you can have faith and give me opportunity to put my growth mindset into practice by letting me flirt with you in person soon.

[helpdesk_hero]

Whenever you want. I'm not doing much.

[webdesigned]

okay, i don't buy that. people with superpowers always have stuff come up unexpectedly, i know that life.

but... okay. friday? too soon? or not soon enough?

[helpdesk_hero]

Yeah, but I'm mostly heroics support, so it's fine. And Friday's good. Unless you want something else?

[webdesigned]

friday. it gives me plenty of time to mentally prepare. and hopefully keep goons and petty crime down so i can snag some free time for the weekend. fingers crossed on that one

[helpdesk_hero]

Mental preparation. Like what, mental sit ups?

[webdesigned]

googling spider puns. trying to decide which of my many unimpressive button up shirts to wear. trying to tame my hair to ultimately give up on it as usual. it's a whole process

[helpdesk_hero]

Avoid the puns, the tightest shirt, let your hair do what it will do.

[webdesigned]

note taken on the shirt and hair

the spider puns are happening though. this is the web you've landed in, better to realize you're stuck with it.

[helpdesk_hero]

Wow, I really do seem to be. Could they maybe spin up their game?

[webdesigned]

i tend to cling to what i know, but who knows. hang around long enough and maybe i'll mix it up.

[helpdesk_hero]

I intend to hang around a while. There aren't many other highly intelligent young super heroes with glasses around.

[webdesigned]

is that all you look for in a guy? superpowers and nerdy glasses?

[helpdesk_hero]

Someone who understands me? Yep.

[webdesigned]

you are more than glasses and superpowers. for the record.

but you've got a point that someone that gets it is nice.

[helpdesk_hero]

I know that I'm more than that. I'm just saying there's similarities.

[webdesigned]

i guess, now that you point it out. maybe we need to get you a bespoke hipster glasses chain, too. 😛

[helpdesk_hero]

Do we have to? I think I might be a touch too cool for that.

[webdesigned]

ouch. that one hurts. but yeah, you're probably right.

( he'll take the fall as the bigger nerd here. )

[helpdesk_hero]

Yeah, I'm a nerd too, a big one. But I do like seeing you.

[webdesigned]

i like seeing you too. so i'm hoping friday isn't as far away as it feels like it is.

[helpdesk_hero]

It feel like weeks.
