I can see that you’re quite confident in your abilities, but I’m fairly certain that I should be asking you that question.
no subject
But if you are asking me, the answer is barely.

[He wonders if jumping directly back into teasing Kunimi will cause the novelty of it to start wearing off. “That’s a shame” feels tempting, but Whelk is starting his next class soon.]
I’d been up all night. Tests to grade on fourth declension nouns. Terribly interesting stuff, but I tend to not like to waste my Saturdays with it.
[As if he doesn’t waste all of his days with anything and everything at his disposal.
[Maybe he can afford to tease Kunimi just a little bit.]
All nighters typically aren’t a problem for me, but perhaps underestimating the affect your endurance would have on me was a bit of a mistake.
I slept very well.
[Mendax.]

Today is the first time I've been able to walk properly since I left your house.
[What's that about a class coming up? O o p s]

[This is a conundrum. He decides that he won't put a stop to this line of conversation unless he has to, but won't actively attempt to aggravate it either. It is a show of great restraint on his part.]
I see I left quite the impression then. Of what sort, I wonder.
[Please, do feed his ego - it's a Latin word, you know.]
no subject
He types out a message, deletes it. Types more, deletes it again.]
I like you. You're fun to be with both in and out of bed.
[Welp, no turning back now.]

Barrington Welp.[So, here's a major crisis point for Whelk. "Like" is a very strong word - a very strong word when it comes to Barrington here, who is not liked by anyone, including family members, that of which includes his own mother. This is a man who during the peak of his life had one person who could continuously tolerate him for more than a couple of hours, and even Czerny had been somewhat of a captive audience (they were just roommates, just roommates).
[Whelk decides at that moment that this kid has absolutely no idea what the fuck he's talking about or what the fuck he's doing. Under this conclusion, a decent human being would end the conversation there and allow this naïve - possibly idiotic - college student to go about his youth without further interference.]
Have you managed a visit to Harry's yet?
[Asshole, stupid, fuck, stupid, asshole, fuck, goddammit--]
no subject
... there's that smile again, nearly exploding right off his face.]
I haven't even tried gelato before but it sounds good.
no subject
[God, what is he doing right now, what is he doing? Are you telling him he can murder someone in cold blood and play it cool all the way home to wash the blood off his clothes, but he can't handle the mere concept of someone enjoying his company? He has truly reached a new level of pathetic. He should have just stuck to sexting and let a bunch of seventeen-year-olds make fun of him - no, he shouldn't have let himself be convinced to sit at a speed dating table in the first place. Since when does that shit actually work, anyway? Talk about a major crisis.
[And Harry's? The second most frequented Aglionby boy stomping grounds in town? What the hell is wrong with you, Barrington?]
I can't speak to whether or not Harry's deserves its reputation, but it is the only place that serves it in town, and it's a hard formula to fuck up.
[So...?]
no subject
If Kunimi knew the true depth of all these risks Whelk keeps piling on, he'd suggest self-sabotage. It's something he knows very well from experience.This is really happening. Oh god, Kunimi feels like a giddy schoolgirl. It's embarrassing even with no one else around.]
You'll help me pronounce any unfamiliar words, right?
no subject
[x]
no subject
[Too eager? Too soon? Kunimi's completely forgotten what it is to be cool and he doesn't even care.]
no subject
[No, stop, we are not going to be more lame than this fucking nineteen-year-old--]
Early then. Before the crowds. [Good. Fine. Wonderful. Students won't be there early on a Saturday morning anyway. It's the perfect crime. Jesus.] I'll meet you there.
no subject
[That's him agreeing to the date, by the way.]
no subject
Alea iacta est.
[Never without a fitting phrase, this one.]
Class is beginning. I'll speak with you soon.
no subject
[Hey, if he checks that text as students are filing in and ends up smiling stupidly, it's not Kunimi's fault. He should've put his phone away.]
