[ oh no that's precious stop how dare you ]

Yeah, just-- when I screw up, don't phaselock me?

[phaselocknroll]

How about if you screw up- [ if not when ] -we have a discussion like rational human beings?

[nostalgiabomb]

-- I mean, sure, if you wanna be logical and stuff. [ and he's trying very, very hard to keep himself from grinning, because this is-- awesome? Weirdly. In a way. ]

Mostly people just punch me when I fuck up and call it a day.

[phaselocknroll]

Let's stick with using our words, shall we?

If you don't listen, then I'll punch you.

[nostalgiabomb]

Words first, then violence.

[ he mulls over this, then, ]

I guess we can make that work. But once it gets punchy, just avoid the face? It's my money-maker.

[phaselocknroll]

Fine, if you insist.

[ a pause, and she leans her forehead against his ] I know you never really went anywhere, but I really missed you, Peter.

[nostalgiabomb]

[ He feels kind of guilty about that, evidenced by the little frown that knits his eyebrows together, but she does have a point. They haven't exactly been 100% for a while. ]

I'll try to be less of a jerkoff. Promise. But we're gonna have to take some baby steps with-- us. Okay?

[phaselocknroll]

Of course. ... To be perfectly honest, I don't know what's supposed to happen after this point.

[nostalgiabomb]

[ He huffs out a quiet laugh, a little self-conscious. ]

Oh, good. That makes two of us, then.

[phaselocknroll]

I could always kiss you again.

[nostalgiabomb]

[ He smirks, then shrugs as if to say, Hey, maybe. ]

That's definitely one way this can go.

Nice to see a month later, you're still as good as I remembered you bein'.

[phaselocknroll]

I had a good teacher.

[nostalgiabomb]

[ He pretends to look innocent and surprised. ]

You found another kiss-buddy?

[phaselocknroll]

Of course. Didn't you?

[nostalgiabomb]

No. I thought we had something special, man. I thought we were just on a break.

[phaselocknroll]

That's your own fault. You should know better than to make assumptions.

[nostalgiabomb]

[ His nose wrinkles in distaste, but the expression smooths out when he sighs. ]

Well, give your buddy my regards, I guess.

[phaselocknroll]

You do know I'm kidding, right?

[ you tried so hard and you got so far, Maya ]

[nostalgiabomb]

[ --sorry, new girlfriend, Peter is just gonna crack up. ]

Sorry, sorry.

Yeah, I know.

[phaselocknroll]

[ POUT ] Well I just wanted to make sure.

[nostalgiabomb]

Well, I mean, if you weren't joking, I'd be, like, seriously jealous. And I'm pretty sure I'd be obligated to punch someone.

[phaselocknroll]

I haven't gone around kissing other people. I promise.

[nostalgiabomb]

Cool. Then the good people of Haven are safe from my punches for another day.

Which is good. I punch pretty hard, so.

[phaselocknroll]

Oh good. I'm glad I spared everyone that horrible fate.

[nostalgiabomb]

You really have. I'll make sure you get a fruit basket for your troubles.

This'll have to do for now, I guess.

[ he moves in for another kiss, less heated than before. ]
