His voice wobbles when Bo clouts him, ‘I’m a suburbs boy, occasional city boy. I grew up out in the sticks, so I already know how dull it can be. Bet you’ve still got stories.’
‘ doesn’t everybody? that’s not just a middle of nowhere thing. ‘suppose the stories maybe involve more livestock, but people act the same anywhere you put ‘em. ’ he shrugs, not casting the point in any particular, positive or negative, light.

Seduction style.
Your Seduction Style: Ideal Lover
You seduce people by tapping into their dreams and desires. And because of this sensitivity, you can be the ideal lover for anyone you seek. You are a shapeshifter - bringing romance, adventure, spirituality to relationships. It all depends on who your with, and what their vision of a perfect relationship is.
Your Seduction Style: The Coquette
You are a pro at playing the age old game of hard to get. Your flirting style runs hot and cold, giving just enough to keep them chasing you. Independent and self-sufficient, you don't need any one person to make you complete.And that independence is exactly what makes people pursue you.

speed dating with @taxinomic
This is absolutely no different to interviewing someone for a show, Dandy is in his element. ‘So, what’s it like living off the land, off the grid? Does it ever get boring as hell?’
‘ all the time. anyone who tries to tell you different is lying out of their ass. ’ he gives dandy’s shoulder a good-natured slap. ‘ you’re a city boy aren’t you? yeah you gotta be, you just have that look about you. ’

GHOSTOFWHO.
He feels so guilty every time someone asks him about death. This person is meeting a ghost for the first time, getting answers about the other side which poets and scientists alike have pondered and argued about for centuries. And all he can say is-
“I don’t remember. I don’t remember any of it. Just woke up a ghost one day. Walked around as a ghost and then learned I could he human…ish. Sometimes.” He tilts his head and gives an apologetic smile, his body relaxed. “Sorry.”
‘ oh that’s okay, no apology needed, ’ she shrugs off (very literally) any lingering let down. there’s probably good reason that information isn’t even popular knowledge with ghosts. it seems like it might come with indiana jones “melt your face off for tampering with things better left unknown” kind of consequences.
‘ you’re almost alive, that’s pretty cool on its own. even without context. i bet you could be real spooky if you tried to be. ’

‘ so. how much can you ‘hear’ at it’s like, ’ she taps the side of her head to indicate crown’s muffler thingy, ‘ lowest setting.’
neil imagines there must be some ground rules already in place about mind-reading willy nilly, but she’s got a crush, which raises the stakes in proving that assumption. you can’t just go around having the girl you like knowing that you like her, that’s just... ridiculous. foolish. she might not even like you back.
