Hey honey! I wanted to check on you, see how you're doing. I know you-know-what's coming up near the end of the month, wanted to go ahead and coordinate, y'know, see if you'd let me stay with you again. Let me know, okay?
I'm alright, thank you... this part of the month is easiest for me. You don't have to stay again if you don't want, or if you're busy-- I can handle it on my own. [That's not really answering his question....] How are you?
I would greatly appreciate it, if you stayed again. [emotional honesty is h a r d]
Hmm. I'll have to do that myself, sooner or later. [he's not really looking forward to it...] Were they very particular about the details of the contract or are we truly free to set them up as we like?
I'd love to, then. I'll go ahead and block off a coupla' days. [ just in case. ]
Trevor's a sweetheart, so ours is pretty wide open. I think he mostly just wanted to get me outta' the Down. [ a beat. ] Have you been meeting any submissives you like?
Just the night of and the morning after should be fine, I don't want to be an inconvenience.
I was asking more about the city than your partner, but that's still good to hear. I'm glad you're not living there anymore. [oh no is this what it feels like for normal people when their parents ask them if they've "met anyone special yet"] To tell the truth, I haven't really been thinking about it yet. [in other words: it's a problem for Future Remus]
[At least over the many years and variations of this argument he's experienced, he knows it's not one he can win. So........ he'll just give it up but think otherwise.]
It just seems like the sort of thing they'd do, force something more strict than people would otherwise want.
Oh-- [internal screaming] you don't need to do that. I'll figure something out. [or...... whoever he gets randomized to will get stuck with him. yknow, whichever. actually no he doesn't want that, for multiple reasons
teddy's comparison to a marriage proposal is making the whole prospect seem that much more intimidating] Most of the people I've gotten to know are either other Dominants or already contracted. [you can practically hear the discomfort] Really not a fan of how this is simultaneously like job-hunting, trying to pull, and finding a flatmate all in one. [never mind he has only done one of those things ever]

[ so don't beat around the bush, remus. ]
I'm alright. Got contracted recently, actually. Felt like being proposed to for a second or two there.

Well, the city wouldn't have let us do it if they were against it, right? [ so, you know.
he clicks his tongue. ] And how long've you been here? I'm gonna' start keeping an eye out for nice folks.
