yeah
i had like
ugh i dunno this really dumb thing about jade when i was a kid
or maybe about the idea of jade
that i could go airmail myself to her and wed live like two feral fucking mowglis on her jungle island and id take care of her or something
but she never needed that
i just
probably i was desperate to think someone did

and then terezi was the one putting the moves on me but that went belly up pretty damn quick

those were the two big ones i guess
jesus both before i was like fourteen
but still all that time and nobody ever made me feel like
like they were waiting for me to take that step
like i could be exactly what they always wanted
just by existing
you know?

i hope i make you feel even a little bit how you do me
i want you to feel that way forever

I didn't know there could be boys like you, before I met you. I thought I knew what I wanted. I thought I'd found it once, too — I think the same way you'd thought you'd found something with Jade.

It was a dream of being happy. I think...perhaps, neither one of us really knew what would make us happy, back then. We only thought we did.

But it was. It was like that for me, too. I'd spent so long trying to be who I had to be, but all I ever had to be for you was myself, and it was enough.

It's strange to think of all we had to go through, the two of us, to find each other. But we did find each other.

I really do think we were meant to find each other, you know.

it feels like that doesnt it
like as unlikely and incredible as the circumstances were any other outcome would be somehow incomplete
so even though the probability of a millennial texan and a girl from 1897 was ridiculously fucking low new universes just had to keep splitting and splitting off so at the same time
there was always going to be a universe where we met
maybe in the universe where we were both boys you took it on to teach me how to dance
and maybe in the universe where we were both girls i confessed to you one night after a lullaby
but i dont think theres any world where the idea of dave strider wouldnt discover its home with the idea of you
though i guess im as biased as you are

I can imagine quite clearly that Marius Everett would have been most distressed at the notion of Dave Strider not knowing the proper way of asking a lady to dance. And so perhaps they did — dancing lessons for modernity lessons, an equal trade. And I suppose if that Dave Strider wanted to keep his lack of knowledge into the subject a secret, then there would be no one but Marius for him to practice with...

And so perhaps they did dance. Perhaps that's when Marius felt it too — that feeling of a song drawing to a close, and wishing so desperately that it wouldn't.

As for Meridiana and Davinia...well. That Meridiana would have invited Davinia to share her room and her bed far sooner than I ever did. I suspect that would have hastened things along, for Davinia's sake.

...

But I'm glad that we ended up as we are. Not least of which because it means that all of those times when I was wrong — low-born, no class, foolish, worthless, narcissistic, wretched — I really...wasn't. It was only wrong because it was still only me and them; it wasn't yet me and you.

And behind the turntables where no one will see us, even!

[callbacks]

girl im pretty sure everyone can see us over the tables
they dont come up that high
will that be a problem

[occultigen]

Oh, that's right, they don't! Do you suppose we should duck?

...

Or perhaps we could simply not care in the slightest, and carry on awfully without giving it a second thought. Which would you rather? ❤♪♬~~~(^ε^人*)

a furtive turntable rendezvous sounds fuckin amazing and is definitely the title of my next band
but
