( why not prolong the inevitable? he, for one, prefers it. more time to try and convince her she's better off finding someone decent! this endeavor is proving to be more of an ordeal than he'd anticipated, possibly because she obviously has terrible taste in men/dates/whatever. maybe ... .... ... he should screen some applicants ... ... ...
I wouldn't want to ruin with your post-shit-date binge session by requiring you to share directly out of the container. Maybe I'll just come for the company. And settle for pumpkin spice. I do like pumpkin spice. Generally in coffee or pastry form, but still.
( oh, he can't wait to shit talk her date. she hasn't had a single one he hasn't internally shit talked, dog cussed, and imagined beating up a little, so externalizing a bit of that will be ... cathartic.
he's throwing on his jacket, getting ready to sneak a cigarette and then head over, but he's also amused and curious, so: ) Out of all the background movies you could've picked, you went with that one. Gotta be a reason.
I'd probably go on a post shitty date bike ride, instead. Then maybe put on some music, sit out on the balcony, berate myself for forgetting why I decided not to do this again in the first place.
( there probably won't be a next time. it's none of her business, but he's an absolute hypocrite and when they talked about the whole dating app thing? he never actually went out with anyone. he just looked at the weird pictures and the weird pronouns and the indecipherable slang and then deleted everything he ever downloaded. yuri nakajima set him up on his singular non-Rogers date -- and how fucked up is that? )
Bout to head over. If we use every shitty date as an excuse to hang out, will that give you more incentive to keep trying?
[ This again? It's really none of his business and she doesn't even know why she's letting him talk her into doing anything since it's not like she'll ever find anyone while still being hung up on him. ]
Guess I should've seen that coming. Fine. Do you want to pick the next one?

Hell no. Chocolate.

Okay then. But I'm eating out of the tub so if you don't come over fast enough, you might not get any.

What movie?

[ She's kidding, she'll save him some chocolate. And some pumpkin spice pastries. ]

( he very much would, given permission. )
Guess you haven't exactly had the best luck picking them yourself, though, have you?
