thought you said they did. that was the whole point of my questioning.

[floralias]

they only need to not have objections. hypothetically, you wouldn't even have to be friends with any of the others.

[theotherobin]

so how do you all live together?

[floralias]

oh we don't. I only live with Riley and our four-legged babies.

[theotherobin]

dude.
you were way not upfront about any of this when i tried to talk to you about it!

[floralias]

I didn't mean to be unclear. there was a time, a very long time ago, when all my lovers lived together. mostly it's easier just to share custody since most people already have a home they're comfortable in. I think it seems a little culty to have a commune full of people you're involved with these days.

[theotherobin]

...yeah it did sound a little culty but i didn't wanna say that :p

so. there's like not even that much interaction between all your love interests?

[floralias]

no cult, I swear!

no, there's not a lot. there's some overlap with the people both Riley and I are seeing, but other than like once or twice a year when we have big 'family' dinners, there's not a lot of contact.

[theotherobin]

that's pretty cool. i legit thought you were all seeing each other. like, together, at the same time.

like one big orgy i guess? 🤣

[floralias]

no, no, no, it's not like that. the best way to characterize it is a bunch of couples that have a little overlap? like, there are people who are involved with me and also with Riley. but not everyone is.

[theotherobin]

yeah, no... i'm starting to get that now. that's cool, yeah.

[floralias]

I'd be happy to discuss it more over coffee.

[theotherobin]

like. a date kinda coffee?

[floralias]

if you'd like it to be a date I'd be okay with that.

[theotherobin]

i've never gone on a date with someone who's already with other people before.

[floralias]

it's just like a date with a single person.

[theotherobin]

yeah?
okay.

[floralias]

awesome!
when's a good time?

[theotherobin]

i'm free during the day a lot. usually busy late at night.

[floralias]

how's tomorrow? afternoon, maybe? I'm scheduled at the shelter in the morning until 11.

[theotherobin]

sure, that's cool. can i meet you at the shelter?

[floralias]

sure! maybe I can convince you to adopt a new pet while you're here.

[insert address here]

[theotherobin]

hey, i've always wanted a dog but i could never get one.

thanks. meet at 11?

[floralias]

I look forward to it.

(( The next day, Will's waiting outside the main shelter door promptly at 11. Even though it's not very far into fall, Will looks like he's ready for winter in a heavy sweater (with sunflowers on it), a hoodie over that, and a warm scarf wrapped around his neck. It's easy to peg him as the type who gets cold very easily. When he sees Jason approaching, he pushes off from the wall and moves to greet him with a wave and a smile. ))

Wanna go in and meet the animals?

[ ooc: If you prefer prose style, I'll follow your format. ]

[theotherobin]

[ Jason is kinda nervous, but he wouldn't ever show it. he's there with confidence on his face as he approaches, giving Will a wave. all he can think about though, is how damn cute Will is. ]

Hey. Sure, that would be awesome.


((i'm good either way!))
