Date him.

[evite]

what, do germans not date?

[myownwoman]

[ daisy, she is already spinster age. ]

Wouldn't that only make my life more complicated?

[evite]

more complicated than being in the future and your former fake fiance being with someone else?

[myownwoman]

[ it takes gaby a good twenty minutes to answer. she isn't avoiding, she is working. which is a great excuse to avoid! she is up to her elbows in hoverbike parts, no time to text. ]

Yes.

[evite]

[ that would be a good excuse if they weren't texting with their brains ]

then un-complicate it.
everyone eats. it doesn't have to be a big deal. take him out for pizza, and if it goes horribly, problem solved, emotion deleted
and if it goes great, go on another date.

[myownwoman]

[ that doesn't sound like uncomplicating it. ]

Fine.

[evite]

if it doesn't work out, illya says you could just kill them

[ did he say that? up for debate. ]

[myownwoman]

No he did not.

Though violence, I am sure was implied when he asked if there was anything he could do for me.

[ if illya suggested murdering someone because they wouldn't date her he'd have some personal complications there. ]

[evite]

[ caught her in one. damn you, mrs teller-parker. ]

it's always implied with him. it's basically his second language

[ or would it be third? technically speaking, anyway, english is probably his second language ]

[myownwoman]

He would not be Illya without it.

[evite]

[ isn't this ... nice. or weird. it feels less weird, now, for daisy. but she wonders if it's still weird for gaby. still painful, in a way. ]

are you planning on asking your fake husband on a real date or not?
because i've got him on the other line asking about you now

[myownwoman]

[ jesus christ ]

I was not.

[ that isn't to say she is opposed but she isn't going to be the one asking. whoops. ]

[evite]

well, i hope you're planning on saying yes because i am not qualified to armchair psychologist his broken heart

[myownwoman]

His heart will not be broken if I say no.

[evite]

right, because this isn't hard for anyone else?
the guy lost his actual wife, now he's conflicted about having real feelings for his fake wife.

just let the guy take you out for pizza.

[myownwoman]

That is not what I said.

[evite]

i know. it's what i said.

[ if she has to tell illya to go wax poetic about romance, she will do it. it would probably just be a punishment to gaby, but it's a threat she will make use of if she has to. ]

[myownwoman]

Fine.

[ is fine gaby's way of avoiding this and also being real upfront about avoiding this? yep. ]
