W-what!? No. No no no no no. The kitchen needs cleaned. GO clean the kitchen.

[ambitious_muse]

I can still talk to you from the kitchen, you know.

Innuendos aside, you wouldn't stop talking about him. It was adorable.

[protective_logic]

I'm certain it was. Like the smile you get over York.

[ambitious_muse]

Yes, but more of it. And more loudly.

Wait, really?

[protective_logic]

You look amazing when you're thinking about him.

[ambitious_muse]

Really?

I--I really love him, D.

And if it's anything like the way you look when you think about Maine, I think I know what you mean.

[protective_logic]

Love?

[Well, then this has to be a reason to talk, right?]

What... would you consider thinking about getting your own dorm room for next year? Or maybe a small apartment? To have a better college experience, a place to spend time with your boyfriend, a quiet place to retreat to for studying for big tests or working on papers and not having to come home and all that. I think we could help you afford it if you want. But you'd also be expected to visit home for meals, and help watch the littles sometimes.

[ambitious_muse]

Yeah. Love. It's strange, but it's--well, it feels right.

Okay, did you develop psychic powers during your surgery? Texas--Beta--and I talked about this before you went in for your surgery. We were going to wait to talk to you about it until after you'd recovered, but I guess this is it. I love the family, but I really would love to have my own place. For studying, and so York and I don't make you uncomfortable. I swear I would come home for dinner every night and I would schedule in babysitting when you need me. I could even keep bringing the twins home over the summer.

First Omega finds a new place to bed down, and now you do as well. No, I don't mind, Sigma. Thank you. I think Omega might be a bit shocked that you also had his plan, but I encourage you not only to talk to him, but to talk to Tex and York and start looking. If it's an apartment you may not be able to do the lease on your own, with the signing for it. York to cosign might be a good idea.

[ambitious_muse]

Well, I don't have one yet. Tex and I are going to go apartment shopping together at some point. I've marked a few places to look at with her. Thanks, though; I'll talk to Meg as well.

I--I hadn't thought to have York cosign. I guess he. Wow. That makes sense. I just hadn't.

I hadn't thought we were to that point yet, but. I mean. Maybe we kind of are?

[protective_logic]

If you weren't thinking about it before, then you probably should take that as a sign that you might not be ready yet. Don't speed up just to get your own place, Sigs.

[ambitious_muse]

I don't just want my own place for him, though. I feel like it's time I did the adult thing and had a space of my own, you know? Having a boyfriend is just another motivation. It would be easier than using his safehouse, anyway.

[protective_logic]

True enough. I think it's about time you started to learn things like managing your own money, paying rent, etc. Some day you might want a place of your own. I'm certain of it.

[ambitious_muse]

Exactly. It's useful no matter my relationship status. You're so good at it that I've never had to learn.

[protective_logic]

I imagine I'll always have Epsilon as a transient presence in my life, so no need for him to learn.

[ambitious_muse]

I suppose that's true. Good old Epsilon. We can always count on him for that.

[protective_logic]

Pick a nice-ish place.

[ambitious_muse]

Texas convinced me of that. She said not to pick a dive just because I thought it would save me money. It doesn't have to be gorgeous, just reasonable. Right?

[protective_logic]

Reasonable is the best idea. And since it's only you, it doesn't have to be too big.

[ambitious_muse]

Exactly. It could even be a studio apartment, though maybe I should do a single bedroom in case you or Epsilon or one of the kids wants to have a sleepover.

[protective_logic]

And deny them the pleasure of having a HUGE room to build a fort in? Your choice.

[ambitious_muse]

Who's to say they couldn't build a permanent fort in the living room?

We'll see. It depends what we find.

[protective_logic]

I'll donate extra pillows. I think I need to buy some for Omega.

[ambitious_muse]

Your donation would be greatly appreciated. You can never have too many pillows.

[protective_logic]

Good. I want to help.
