[And Edward just waits. Checking his phone idly as he does. ...Doing a quick ghost scan around the room, because he usually does so.]

[agoodname]

[Just Elijah this time. Who is sitting on the couch, watching this progression with mild curiosity and interest]

"Off to the concert, then?"

[enigmaster]

Ah... Yes, that's right.

[agoodname]

[the corner of his mouth curls gently into a smile]

"I see."

[enigmaster]

I've never really been to this kind of thing before. [Or anywhere with a friend, much. Last time he had something like that, they certainly didn't go to... stuff like this.]

[agoodname]

"You'll enjoy it, I think. We used to take Oswald to these free concerts in the park on the summer rather regularly when he was a boy. it was a rather inexpensive way to get outside and spend time together."

[enigmaster]

...It sounds... nice. [A family outing like that.]

[agoodname]

"It was. We worked hard, but those times when we could go and spend time together, that's all we focused on. We felt fortunate to have it."

[enigmaster]

[He definitely feels envious, hearing that, even though that's not really fair considering Elijah's dead now.] I see. I've never really been the... spend time with people type, I guess. Or. Not a lot, anyway... [Once before. And now with Oswald.]

[agoodname]

"Well. I hope you enjoy this one, then. I'm sure you will; you'll have a picnic and a blanket and some nice music and hopefully not much else to worry about."

[enigmaster]

...Mhm.

I guess it'll be nice to see Harvey again, too.

[................yep

he sure is

glad

for that]

[agoodname]

"Ah." [and Elijah frowns a bit at that] "Yes. The defense attorney. The one Oswald liked when he was younger."

[enigmaster]

Mhm, yeah. He's coming too.

[agoodname]

"....I see." [hmmmmmmm????] "Are you...alright with that?"

[enigmaster]

Sure. Why would it be a problem?

[agoodname]

[because you clearly have feelings for his son, Edward]

"It depends, I suppose. Were you thinking it would be just the two of you?"

[enigmaster]

...When he first asked, yes. [BUT IT'S FINE IF IT ISN'T]

[agoodname]

"What changed?"

[enigmaster]

...Well, he just decided to invite Harvey along as well. And that's fine. It just changed. It doesn't really matter or anything. Right?

[agoodname]

"....doesn't it?" [Elijah tilts his head a bit]

[enigmaster]

I don't... think it does. [he's not disappointed it's fine he's fine IT'S FINE]

[agoodname]

"Did you want it to be just the two of you?" [gently, just a soft inquisition] "It's alright if you did."

[enigmaster]

I... don't know. ...Maybe?

[agoodname]

"Did you want to spend time with him on your own? With just the two of you?"

[enigmaster]

I-I don't know? We already do that, so... [edward that's really not the same otherwise you wouldn't be all red]
