Mmm, maybe. [He's not too convinced, mainly because:]

I always blurt out stupid shit, though. My mouth just likes to run faster than my brain can keep up with it.

[He turns his head to look at her, raising his brows. We all know #crutchesgate] You know first hand how that goes.

[ She tries to press her lips into not smiling, because oh boy does she know. She was mad at the time but looking back on it now? It was a little funny. And it honestly needed to happen. She just had no idea Peter would be the catalyst for it. ]

Yeah, it's true.

[ She sighs through her nose, ]

But I think maybe it was more than that. I mean, you wanted to tell him before. Maybe being around him in a different setting helped. Did you feel like you could be more open with him?

Sort of. [Every interaction with Erik's been... weird. He's enjoyed it, getting to know him before and after the whole reveal - but it's always had a strange weight to it. Like he's been trying to absorb everything he can and not fuck anything up.

He covers his face with his hands, talking through them:] We're gonna meet up again and talk since before was kinda just. Unexpected. I didn't have notes, he didn't have notes. Y'know?
