Thank god you did, they were horrible.
One latched itself onto me and I had to practically set it on fire to get it to let go.
Elias was trying to convince me I'd have to let it have sex with me to get it off.

[Which... the extremely hefty fine he'd received in the mail recently indicated that Elias was probably right that letting the thing have its way was what he was supposed to do. But Jon is a very stubborn man when he wants to be.

There's a bit of a longer pause as he considers what he wants to say next. Reading that second line... does Peter want something? Jon had offered to play cats with him, but the other man had never taken him up on the offer. He'd just sort of assumed there wasn't that much interest there.]

Coerced.
Yes, that seems to be unfortunately common.





There's an art gallery near the Institute.
They're doing an exhibit with artists painting the night sky.
Would you like to come with me to it?
I just thought with what you painted on me before... maybe?

Duplicity never stops being surprising does it?
Or predictable. Depending on how you look at it.

[Speaking of surprising.]

Yes, I think I'd like that a lot.
When would you like to go?

[compellingstatement]

[When. Right. When?]

Tonight?
Only if that's enough time.
It can be tomorrow.
Or whenever, really.
No rush.

I have a shift tonight, unfortunately.
Tomorrow, though, is great.
If you give me the address, I can meet you there. Or pick you up at the Institute? What time are you generally done for the day?

[compellingstatement]

[Tomorrow. Good, fine. That gives him time to prepare. Somehow. Mentally? Yes, mentally. He also now needs to offer a reasonable time to Peter.]

8 PM.
Give or take.
Let's say 8 PM?
I'll meet you at the entrance.

[He sends along an address.]

[rosebyanyother]

Fantastic.
I look forward to it.

[compellingstatement]

Me, too.
