People are still saying that?

[ why would they stop? ]

I wonder if that's all there is to it.

People are always saying it.

[ Why would they stop???? Anyway just enjoy wondering about that, Escha definitely doesn't have any theories about it. It's a mystery! ]

I figured if we were coworkers for long enough it would be obvious we were just coworkers.

[Because clearly??? that's all they are.]

It gets worse the longer we're together.

[ Maybe it's because you say shit like that, Escha?! Anyway she's got idiot brain curse, so she forgot the 'no talking about the future' agreement they have. ]

Has Clone asked us about grandkids yet? [ When is that, like, year one? Two? Ugh. ]

... Is it annoying? I don't really mind it, since we both know we aren't.

[It's nothing very specific about the future, so it's not like it's awful? Probably.]

Yeah, I remember that. I wasn't expecting that from her.

I guess I don't necessarily mind it...

I just feel bad whenever it happens. I thought it was probably embarrassing for you.

It doesn't really bother me. We both know it isn't true.

Oh, good. That's a relief.

So we really shouldn't worry about what other people think about our relationship.

Right! What matters the most is that we're comfortable with how things are.

Exactly. And we're comfortable with this... right?

[At least, he thinks they both are? But confirmation never hurt anybody.]

[ She nods. ]

Yes, definitely!

[A warm smile as he reaches out to hold her hand.

Like coworkers do.]

[ She takes his hand comfortably and without hesitation.

Is there

a refractory period on this weeks aphrodisiac thing? ]

[It takes an hour before it starts up again from first contact.

I think.

Either way he just seems content to be holding his coworker's hand.]

[ Okay, cool. Then they can just finish up watching this romantic Shrek Titanic and hold hands the whole time.

You know, like coworkers. ]

[It's cozy.

But he's not about to cuddle up to her right now. That's definitely too far.]
