azurelunatic | Morning with Darkside

It must be summer, as Darkside wasn't wearing his jacket this morning. We joked around, talking. His nickname from work is "Evil" -- it makes logical sense when he explains it. He was surprised that I knew his middle name as well. I made mild grumping about my female appointment this afternoon, right after class.

I blush now, when we talk, every time I feel myself warming toward him, smiling at him, content to be in his presence. He's aware that there's something different. I'm happy again.

Today I teased him. We sat in lab together. A dude who knows

ralmathon came along and asked me to please give these papers to him, as I'd see him sooner. I told him no. "After this class I have to do something evil." Then, turning to Darkside, "Isn't that right, Evil?"

I'd been calling him "Evil" all morning; it didn't dawn on me until a split second before I said it, what I'd be saying. I said it anyway.

The dude turned an interesting expression and hightailed it out of there.

ralmathon showed up slightly after that, with this expression of "Please tell me that I did not just hear what I think I heard, and if I heard it correctly, then congratulations Azz" on his face.

I explained.

After my test, Darkside and I wound up back in the cafeteria again. I explained to him that my being able to joke about us in a sexual way meant that the fact that we aren't together is no longer tearing me apart from the inside. This is a good sign. We began talking. Somehow, the topic of a conversation earlier today came up... I began to giggle. Darkside asked me why. I kept giggling. "Are you sure you want to know?" He kept asking, though, so eventually I did tell him.

Adam has evidently coined names for two of my "toys". The big blue one is The Clue Stick (he called it "Blues Clues" originally, but I refused on the grounds of the bizarre porn I was subjected to last night... [that's really, *really* raunchy, dearie... eeek!! Instant trauma. Vodka??] ...after hearing some basic points of summary, he agreed...) and the bumpy orange jelly one is Mr. Wiggles. Um. Yeah. Darkside thought it was reasonably funny. I made him ask me to tell him several times, so I'd be cleared of his blame for the TMI factor... he'd figured on the first one; the second one was news to him.

Shared the filk with Dawn and Darkside. Dawn was in stitches. Darkside rolled his eyes. I think we have a winner.
