If he talks, I’ll give you a heads up before you see him again.
[ He hums thoughtfully, worries his cheek for a moment and shoves his free hand into his pocket. ]
More like implied I wanted to and he said no. Which is totally fine. I understood.
And you were clearly a bit wasted. I don’t hold it against you. I was joking that you owed me anything, anyway. So let it go. It’s fine. I promise.
[ Really, he didn’t mind the call. K didn’t feel the same way but Noah didn’t care. It didn’t end the way he’d hoped it would but he hat was fine, too. ]
About as stubborn as you, then. Can't keep me from coming up with surprises forever, Noah.
[He'll find an excuse one of these days--and he'll try not to be stupid about it. For Noah's sake if not for his own.]
Doubt I'd get annoyed in the first place. Sleep isn't always something that comes easy. At least then I'd be doing something more worthwhile with my time.
...Doubt I'll get back to sleep. Wylan's been staring at me for the past five minutes as if I've grown three heads. [And yet: there's a yawn, all the same.] Good luck with whatever Kaz throws at you.
Noah...[Jesper laughs.] He's probably wondering what I'm talking about at this hour. If we don't sleep it's not going to be because of any assumption you're having.
[Though that had been something that kept them up the night prior...]
I'll...probably be seeing Kaz later. Warn me if I should look to reschedule that? Or avoid it entirely.

I don’t do that if I can help it.

You're going to be stubborn about it, aren't you? [One doesn't tell another to let it go unless they're prepared to dig in their heels about it.]
Trying to avoid disappointment or to keep from causing riffs?

Incredibly so. Yes.
[ Noah is patient and stubborn. ]
Both…mostly the disappointment part but…both.

Date: 2021-10-02 12:18 am (UTC)Your choice. Maybe I'll just come up with a surprise.
[Or maybe Wylan can help him come up with something appropriate later. After he complains about this call waking him up, of course.]
I'm not out here to disappoint you, or make you feel like you're causing trouble.

No one is.
[ but it happens. ]
Fine. Pay me back by….not getting annoyed with me if I call you in the middle of the night drunk sometime.

Go back to sleep, Jes. We’re all good.

I’ll let you know. But I don’t think I’d worry. Either way I’ll text you.
