7:07:56 PM John (colonelinblack): Do you wanna know why the Keller thing pissed me off so much?
7:08:17 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Hello.
7:08:18 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Yes, I do.
7:08:26 PM John (colonelinblack): Hi..
7:09:02 PM John (colonelinblack): Because I couldn't do anything about it. Not in public, and that killed me
7:09:43 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): You got her off me and dragged her to the infirmary, what else was there to do?
7:11:03 PM John (colonelinblack): It's not.. It's that I wanted to tell her off, that's all I wanted was to scream that you were mine and she couldn't touch you like that. And parasites or no fucking parasites, I couldn't risk anyone overhearing
7:12:13 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Oh.
7:12:42 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Well, yes.
7:13:14 PM John (colonelinblack): What would you have done if the situation was reversed?
7:15:13 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Since I am unable to knock anyone out even if I wanted to I guess I would refrain to being extremely moody.
7:15:34 PM John (colonelinblack): But it would piss you off, right? I mean, I'm not overreacting.
7:16:02 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): You know exactly how much that pisses me off.
7:17:01 PM John (colonelinblack): Rodney, I want to be with you.. for a long time.
7:18:28 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Okay?
7:18:31 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): I mean, that sounds good.
7:19:15 PM John (colonelinblack): I wish this didn't have to be such a fucking big secret
7:20:54 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): I know.
7:21:03 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): And I feel bad about what happened.
7:21:39 PM John (colonelinblack): Oh.. well.
7:21:42 PM John (colonelinblack): Um, thanks
7:22:00 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): What?
7:22:36 PM John (colonelinblack): I mean.. like we said before it wasn't your fault. I guess it's just nice knowing I'm not the only one with the bad vibes happening
7:24:06 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): It's just... I've never kissed anyone else while being in a relationship. (No, Cadman in my head doesn't count.) Not that I have been in many relationships. I just, I feel really weird.
7:24:43 PM John (colonelinblack): Right.. it's not a good feeling.
7:26:27 PM John (colonelinblack): I just... I want us to make a commitment to each other, even if it is only secret or whatever
7:27:08 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): ... isn't that what a relationship means?
7:27:20 PM John (colonelinblack): I mean, a bigger commitment
7:27:27 PM John (colonelinblack): Something ceremonial
7:27:44 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): ...
7:27:56 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Stop. Let me get this straight.
7:27:59 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Are you proposing to me?
7:28:15 PM John (colonelinblack): No..
7:28:19 PM John (colonelinblack): Maybe
7:28:24 PM John (colonelinblack): Sort of?
7:28:45 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): In an IM?
7:28:54 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): At least send a gif of flowers or rings!
7:28:58 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): jpeg would work, too.
7:29:35 PM John (colonelinblack): http://blogs.ocweekly.com/navelgazing/GayWeddingCake.jpg
7:29:50 PM John (colonelinblack): Satisfied?
7:30:11 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Apart from the fact that they are wearing lipstick.
7:30:26 PM John (colonelinblack): ...I didn't notice that
7:30:39 PM John (colonelinblack): They also are wearing heels
7:30:41 PM John (colonelinblack): Scrap that
7:30:59 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): John, may I ask you a random, unrelated question?
7:31:03 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Maybe a little bit related.
7:31:09 PM John (colonelinblack): Yeah-huh.
7:31:13 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): How drunk are you?
7:31:27 PM John (colonelinblack): ...mildly tipsy?
7:31:45 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): I see.
7:32:17 PM John (colonelinblack): But that's not why..
7:32:18 PM John (colonelinblack): I mean
7:32:25 PM John (colonelinblack): I can ask again when I'm sober
7:32:45 PM John (colonelinblack): I just was talking to Beckett and he and Cadman have their thing... and I want us to have a thing
7:33:15 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): That sounds nice.
7:33:23 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): And you already know I want to marry someday.
7:33:31 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): But yes, you should ask me again when you're sober.
7:33:52 PM John (colonelinblack): Did you just say yes, but ask again anyway?
7:35:21 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): What? No! Don't think it's going to be that easy, Mr. Gay Jpeg. What I meant was you know that I do not object to the general idea of marriage. Contrary to you.
7:36:03 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): You were the one who was all never going to marry again, remember?
7:36:18 PM John (colonelinblack): ..vaguely
7:36:41 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): ... do you remember what you drank?
7:36:51 PM John (colonelinblack): I do
7:37:16 PM John (colonelinblack): ...I'm so glad we're not gay http://deusexeverriculum.files.wordpress.com/2008/12/a_gay_wedding.jpg
7:37:58 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): So am I.
7:38:10 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): What did you drink? More precisely, what amounts?
7:38:24 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Also, no. We will never have a disco ball like that. Don't even ask.
7:38:33 PM John (colonelinblack): I would never ask!
7:38:41 PM John (colonelinblack): ...what about a regular one?
7:39:30 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): As long as it stays up at the ceiling and doesn't threaten to hit my back like a giant wrecking ball we can talk about it.
7:39:47 PM John (colonelinblack): Cool
7:40:01 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): That is not a yes!
7:40:45 PM John (colonelinblack): .. fine
7:41:07 PM John (colonelinblack): You're going to make me get down on one knee, aren't you?
7:43:36 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): I won't let any of this count unless you're sober.
7:43:39 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): And yes, I might do that too.
7:43:49 PM John (colonelinblack): I'm not drunk
7:43:56 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Yes, you are.
7:44:00 PM John (colonelinblack): No, I'm not!
7:44:35 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Golf sucks.
7:44:47 PM John (colonelinblack): What? I'll kill you
7:45:08 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): You're drunk.
7:45:20 PM John (colonelinblack): I am not! I love golf in any state of mind
7:46:13 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Yes, but your standard reply to that is general hate on hockey and Canadian beer in a way that you consider as witty comeback, which, by the way, it never is.
7:46:30 PM John (colonelinblack): there, that's a much better one: http://www.livenews.com.au/static/articles/92561/F_0_gay-wedding-cake_g_320.jpg
7:46:55 PM John (colonelinblack): I'll even wear the queer blue one
7:47:53 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): That's the cake, not the wedding pair.
7:48:01 PM John (colonelinblack): I'm aware of that
7:48:24 PM John (colonelinblack): Also, I am clever or you wouldn't be with me... so there
7:50:25 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): You are sending me gay wedding cake pictures.
7:50:38 PM John (colonelinblack): So?
7:51:00 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): I just tried to imagine what your face will look like tomorrow.
7:51:09 PM John (colonelinblack): You told me to send you a jpg...
7:51:16 PM John (colonelinblack): what's wrong with my face?
7:51:23 PM John (colonelinblack): I mean, other than the nose thing
7:51:26 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): I meant the expression on it.
7:51:43 PM John (colonelinblack): What are you talking about?
7:52:54 PM John (colonelinblack): You don't think I'll go through with it
7:58:19 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Of course I don't. Everytime the word "marriage" pops up you make a face as if someone was treating a papercut with salt.
7:58:24 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Which is painful by the way.
7:58:39 PM John (colonelinblack): ..I can imagine
7:58:57 PM John (colonelinblack): but I don't want to marry you
7:59:18 PM John (colonelinblack): I want like... I don't know, maybe we could get some sort of alien ceremony
8:02:24 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Are you being spontaneous here?
8:02:43 PM John (colonelinblack): No.. I've been thinking about this for a while
8:03:07 PM John (colonelinblack): I know it's hard to believe stuff goes on under all this hair, but.. it does, okay
8:12:51 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Okay.
8:15:01 PM John (colonelinblack): You do realize people are more honest when drunk...right?
8:17:09 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): See, if you weren't so drunk you wouldn't call it more honest.
8:17:15 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): You would call it less guarded.
8:17:42 PM John (colonelinblack): ..No, I'm pretty sure I would call it more honest
8:18:29 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): It does sound nicer than less guarded, doesn't it?
8:18:43 PM John (colonelinblack): Yeah, it does
8:21:59 PM John (colonelinblack): I'll come by for lunch and we'll talk about this, okay?
8:22:32 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Yes. I'll see you tomorrow then.
8:22:45 PM John (colonelinblack): Good night, sleep well, etc.
8:22:58 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Yes, yes, likewise.
8:23:06 PM John (colonelinblack): Love you
8:23:40 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): ... likewise again.
7:08:17 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Hello.
7:08:18 PM Rodney (mockthedyingman): Yes, I do.
7:08:26 PM John (colonelinblack): Hi..
