Mhm. Definitely. [Definitely... a maybe or a yes...? That she doesn't say.]

[congealed]

[ He smirks. ]

You gonna keep me in suspense?

[justonetouch]

You even know how one goes about doing it?

[Different 'houses' and all.]

[congealed]

I may know a thing or two.

[justonetouch]

[CAN YOU FEEL THAT EYEROLL.]

An' you're going to keep me in suspense?

[congeals]

[ OF COURSE. C'MON, ROGUE, JUST ADMIT THAT YOU LOVE HIS DORKINESS. ]

And what if I am?

[justonetouch]

[YES. YES SHE DOES. BUT THAT DOES NOT MEAN SHE WON'T ROLL HER EYES.]

Guess that means I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours.

[congeals]

[ UNDERSTANDABLE. ]

Fair enough. [ He laughs. ]

It's the same as looking for a place back home. Each District has apartments or small houses to choose from, with different prices for rent.

[justonetouch]

Not that part. [Her own laughter in her voice. Because she assumes that was the same.] Do we gotta choose a spot between the two of our houses or something?

[congeals]

[ He chuckles, a bit sheepishly. ] Oh.

Nah, it doesn't matter. We can pick anywhere.

[justonetouch]

That's easier than I thought it would be.

[congeals]

[ His brow arches, and his voice deepens slightly with mock pride, as if he wants to impress her. ]

Maybe I just make it look easy, and it's actually a very complicated process.

[justonetouch]

Uh huh. That so? Might wanna lead with that in the future then.

[congeals]

[ A laugh. ] Point taken.

[justonetouch]

[She figured as much.]

And yes.

[Which is her answer to his previously asked question.]

[congeals]

[ With a warm smile, he leans closer to her. ]

Good to know.

[justonetouch]

'course it might take some time.

[congeals]

Maybe I should get another job, then. Or two more.

[justonetouch]

And when would I get to see you, hmm?

[congeals]

Uh, my lunch breaks? [ He laughs. ]

[justonetouch]

Great. So, let's see... An hour an' a half a day? Ya, I guess that is sufficient, now that Ah think about it... [Teeeeeasing.]

[congeals]

[ A chuckle. ]

Ouch. You really know how to get to a guy, don't you?

[justonetouch]

When your boyfriend is saying all he's got for you is a few hours... Better believe it.

[congeals]

Only 'til we find a place. Then, I'm all yours.

[ Anticipating her eye roll, he shakes his head with a laugh. ]

Just kidding. I won't get another job. Though, I doubt we'd have to save up for too long anyway. Maybe a few months.

[justonetouch]

[Yup. The eye roll had been coming.]

Guess not having any expenses for living helps with that.
