With eyes completely open, but nervous all the same (Eli)
A decent, mild beef curry is sizzling on the stove while something chocolate bakes in the oven in GK's tiny basement kitchenette. Turning everything off for a bit, he looks over his clothes to make sure it's all nice and clean, and goes up the stairs to outside, looking for Eli to arrive, or call for better directions.

	Focused though he is on the eggs, GK -- who is in a reasonably-priced but still prissy-looking dressing gown -- has made coffee. And will put down the pan for a moment to poor Eli some, hand it to him, and....stare for a while. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	COFFEE! :D Eli completely doesn't notice the staring. He has coffee. After a few gulps he does notice the dressing gown. "Whut's that you're wearing?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It's a dressing gown. For when I want to wear something before I actually bother getting dressed." Pause. Still staring. "Although your approach is nice, too. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It's hideous. Unless you were in the ... fifties." Still not noticing the staring. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	GK gets flustered. "Well, I... I. I don't have time to change yet." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	half_angel_eli 2011-04-30 02:14 am UTC (link)
	"Why do you even have it in the first place? It looks terrible on you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	GK starts to cringe in insecurity, then... "Well, fine then." And the dressing-gown is undone and tossed into the hamper as he turns to take the eggs off the heat with scarlet in his cheeks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	This causes Eli to blink. "Why are you all red?" Sometimes social skills evade him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Do you... normally tell people they look hideous the next morning?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	half_angel_eli 2011-04-30 02:40 am UTC (link)
	"Not if they're paying me." He reaches over and helps himself to some eggs. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	veryperceptive 2011-04-30 03:24 am UTC (link)
	GK will look very distressed and silent as he gets the eggs onto paper plates. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	half_angel_eli 2011-05-01 12:57 am UTC (link)
	"... What?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	veryperceptive 2011-05-01 01:04 am UTC (link)
	GK sits down in a sort of curling-inward way. He looks at Eli more intently, but that just gets him Coffee and Food some more. No way but to say it. "...do you like me at all?" he asks rather pathetically. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	half_angel_eli 2011-05-01 01:29 am UTC (link)
	He looks surprised. Shocked even. "Of course I do!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	veryperceptive 2011-05-01 01:36 am UTC (link)
	"Oh...oh good. 'Cause...I really like you. But... I couldn't tell, and... I guess I've heard too much about my parents? This is the part where the guy mutters 'Good morning you look nice oh dear I'm late bye,' and is never seen again, so I was a little nervous...." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	half_angel_eli 2011-05-01 01:57 am UTC (link)
	"That's stupid," Eli pronounces. "They said that every guy is like that?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"No, but... well, that was my father. And my grandfather was worse, and all I know about my great-grandfather was that he had a thing for coma patients. Doesn't... give one a lot of confidence about ones luck with guys, and you're... fantastic so part of me was wondering if this could possibly work out, and I wasn't sure from what you were saying if you were even... happy about last night and..."

	There's really only one way to deal with this. Eli gives him a sound kiss. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	veryperceptive 2011-05-01 02:31 am UTC (link)
	And GK eagerly kisses back, reassured. (Reply to this)(Parent)
