[Which may sound terribly criminal like casing the seaside cottages and choosing one that can be lock-picked and crashed in, but it's really Will just calling in a favor from someone he knows.]
because she's never been to one and it's better than a cabin in the woods
trading sexual favors is only exciting if i get to watch and mm that's okay i guess but i don't see the difference in cottage and woods cabin an equal percentage of outdoors time happens in both
[Is the participation not exciting enough? he thinks, but no. He's not asking. That's just sad.]
seaside cottage usually says something about wealth cabin in the woods tends to scream more towards social reject outcast misanthrope on the verge of mass murder stereotypically speaking
[The Porter or the stick she poked him with was too sharp, mysteries.]
it's a bd if you have to get a new job i'm sure you'll pull through shark april is pulling through shark april nearly capsized a small boat and put a bruise on my leg with her tail and busted another guy's ass but that was more us being a dumbshits than anything else that was how i knew she was an april shark
i love her she's like the violent big sister i never had but if you want to get beat up don't ask in the same texting covering your parental duties and don't worry i'll still have my own money i can always work out this bank robbing thing for plan b
we're doing shark trips every month now why don't you come in october help us catch the next one and if the new finned april doesn't beat me during the trip you can rectify that
[He's not being totally serious on that last part because he doesn't think she is, either. Not to "no why" levels, at any rate. Not a single mention of the not-child bride to be found, they can leave that topic.]
if you promise to listen to me while we're out there and get the shoes you'll need which i have plenty of thanks to the shop then there won't be any issues
maybe if i can text them from my napping chair instead of holding the meeting in a boat but is this your mammal trickery way of saying you don't want a surprise mystery trip to somewhere i like
[No, no, there's that weird thing again, that caring (in her own way, but still a good way) about what he wants that he's not really accustomed to deal with.]
not at all i'd be thrilled to go on a mystery trip to somewhere you like i'd take off work for it
[Which is easier when he's the boss, he knows. Being the boss is sometimes kind of great.]
[The good thing about this is that it's not just Will, that if something happens to her (or anyone else, for that matter), there's plenty of people nearby who know how to react. What to do. Who can step in if anything goes awry and Will's not right next to her. They've had two successful trips with no real incidents, he's fully trusting that they can make a third with someone who doesn't know shit and it be as smooth sailing as the others.]
great i'll let the crew know so we can make arrangements they were asking about you anyway it'll be a good time promise
