And I'm split in half, but that'll have to do
"But...what does my being in love with her, have to do with her?" Admittedly that was a strange way of wording it, and so with a frown, Everest looked down into his tea with a sigh. "I guess I mean...it isn't like I'm asking her to do anything differently just because of how I feel." Twitching his lips, the aviator pushed himself away from the kitchenette and moved instead to the couch, setting his tea down on a coaster.
"I suppose I just don't understand why it would scare someone."
Making a mental note (you know, instead of several physical ones) to ask Isla if they were together on their date, the aviator glances up. "In two days. I told her that I would plan everything." That at least wasn't a surprise, not given how much of a planner Ever always had been. Only now it was because he wanted the opportunity to dazzle Isla every single moment that they were together, and he could only achieve that with planning.
"I was going to find something for her to wear. Would you help me pick something? I didn't have you to dress me for the Ball, and I can promise you that people noticed." Though likely not for the reasons that the botanist would think.
