[considering hum] I'm sure you've seen most everything by now. Can't see how my poor impulse control and desire to make up for my lack of life is that interesting.
But now I'll worry that you'll think I'm trying too hard. To make you like me. And that it'll become predictable for me to... [sighs!]
Not often I get to tell him he's wrong, though. He promised me desserts every morning if he was.
... I still don't really understand it. [liking things. things being nice. how you feel about something being a consideration at all.] But, I... think I like you. Probably. Under the standard definition.
[wait, thought she totally caught him in a gotcha, finger raised, mouth open... because if he liked her he'd say he didn't and let her have her cake and eat it too! or does his relationship with Skulduggery mean he's siding with him out of loyalty! is he purposefully sabotaging her cake dreams? no no no stop overly complicating, Ava. this is better than daily skeleton-delivered cake, right?]
Oh. Well I think I like you too. Even uh... [you kinda upset her boyfriend.]
Mhm. Think it's that whole. Bond vs villain dynamic they're both channeling. Very much Max's aesthetic. Which is actually kinda cute? Except they don't like when I point that out.

Does it have a happy ending?

But it didn't have Skulduggery in it, huh. So. [obviously that's the key to a happy ending.]
no subject
No, it did not. So.
no subject
He said you like me. Which is weird. But then I hear how your... meetings with others go. [including 6 but not saying it!]
But I told him it's his inherent bias. Because he likes me.
