[ Kai's not the only one making a list of to-do items for later. There's so many things in his head that he couldn't possibly address them all in one conversation. Better to try and catalog as many as possible for a time when they, well, when they have more time. Some things can wait and some can't. He'll try to keep his focus on the things that are the most pressing and immediate for now.

Just for now.

He draws Kai's hand a little closer still, enveloping it in both of his own. ] I'd like to hear more about her, about your home... all of it. If it's okay. I mean, it doesn't have to be now! You know, whenever we're ready.

But I would like to... know you, you know? [ You just said "you know" multiple times there, Dash. ]

I feel like we'll do better together than apart. Maybe I already feel a little comfort from that? I don't know if that's a sign that we're bonding or if it's something else, maybe it's both. All I know is, I feel better now somehow. [ Dash chews on his lip for a second, mouth falling open at Kai's gesturing. ]

Oh, you mean...? [ He inclines his head in the direction of his open bedroom door. ] Well, I'll be honest, I wouldn't usually do that so soon, but...

But it doesn't feel too soon. Um, do you want to stay the night here? We could order food and- [ "You know." ] And talk after, right?

Figure things out. [ Saying it like that makes a thing that's almost certainly not simple sound awfully straightforward. Even if it's as easy as it can possibly be, getting to know someone that well is still a huge thing. There's a lot to take in and process. Dash doesn't know how intense it might be to experience the power Kai is talking about, but it definitely doesn't sound easy. ] What do you think?

Or, is there somewhere else...
