Potentially a terrible combination... I would have been just as cluelessly inappropriate trying to understand. If a less charming you had lashed out in offense, well. You can imagine how teenage me would have taken that, considering how poorly I do now. This is an improvement.
[ It's easy enough to roast himself, though, these days. Because he is improving, and is upset with himself so much less. Although... this reminds him of something. ]
Do you know someone called me a "very charming young man" while we were away? I questioned the placement of that bar but my first thought was actually "you need to meet my partner."
Mm, yes, that combination is rather a recipe for disaster, isn't it. I would not have held back. I'm glad I met the you that I did, I would hate to have missed out on all of the good you've brought me for such silly reasons.
[ It's his turn to be sappy, now. Having Kazu in his life really has done wonders; as much as it took him so long to try and learn to learn on him, if he hadn't had him now? He would never have accepted the need to try and get sober at all. ]
But darling, you think that without much provocation at all. [ tease, tease ] You can be very charming, love, in your way. When you find your words or at least your stride. But I suppose I have cultivated a very specific kind of charm.
