it's a sleepover, and you're all invited. this is never have i ever, and the rules are simple: icly comment with your character and a "never have i ever", people respond with judgement, jokes, or in the event they've done what you haven't, a shot of alcohol. comment around, thread hop, and react as you see fit! (meme threads aren't game canon, but they're not not game canon either, right)
Well, you know what my preference is. But it's nice sometimes, with someone I really care about, if that's what he wants. I feel good taking care of people. It feels good being wanted, like that.
I see you that way. I see it in the way you care for your friends, the way you put yourself on the line for others. I saw it when you swallowed your pride and came to me about Senator Smith, even when I'd treated you terribly.
You're a strong man, Skip. There's no doubt about it.
[yeah. he's gonna need a drink for this one. down the hatch - the whole thing, with a mild grimace.]
I don't know if I would or not. I never had the chance to figure it out.
Kenny - you remember, I told you about him, yeah?
I didn't tell you all of it. I didn't tell you that we were together in my room one day after practice - back when we first knew how we felt about each other.
I just...wanted him to know how deep it was for me. I wanted to give him something absolute.
[hawk smiles, an almost derisive laugh as he shakes his head.]
And then my dad walked in. I'm sure you can imagine how that went.
[ It's easy in a place like this to...not forget about the way things are at home, but to simply not think about them. It's been eight months since he's heard a single comment about fairies and queers (derogatory), but Hawk opening up puts him right back in it, makes him chew his fingernails so that he doesn't think of what his father would do in the same position.
Tim listens closely, as he always does, when Hawk talks about anything that happened before him. ]

Does it bother you? That we haven't?

I didn't know your dad knew.
[ With no small amount of horror. ]
And to find out like that. I can't even imagine.
