Would you two ever consider going on a double date with any of the others?

A double date? Well… I wouldn’t mind it but it depends who it’s with. Really, Ridge? You’re actually picky about who we’d go on a double date with? Well one of us has to be. Could you imagine going on a double date with Sips and Sjin? Sips would be worse than nails on a chalkboard. Oh come on, Ridge. Sips isn’t that bad!

Isn’t that bad? The last time we were even together to work on a project he managed to put dirt into everyone’s drinks! I was picking dirt particles from my teeth for days. You’re so over dramatic, Ridge! You were not picking dirt from your teeth for days! Well I still say no to that pair. Who would you consider, darling? Hmm… I don’t know. You tend to be a bit hard to get along with, Ridge. Nano refuses to even consider being around you, Nilesy is still skittish over the last time you put spiders in his drink… Don’t laugh! It wasn’t funny. You have to admit the way he jumps is rather amusing.

No. It isn’t, Ridge. You are impossible! Now… I can’t really think of anyone else besides Wi-. Oh. Oooh I know who. What? Who, darling? I’m not going to tell you. I’m going to set up a secret double date. What? Darling, that’s not fair! Tell me! You know I can’t handle the anticipation. I know you can’t. It’s exactly why I’m doing it! No! Darling, please! You had your chance! Now you have to deal with it. You’ll just have to wait and see who I have in mind. …Readers, he’s left the room. If he says anything, anything at all! Tell me. I feel as if I may need some reconnaissance on this one.

Hey Xephos, I know you have a thing with torches, as I was wondering if there was any particular reason? Are you scared of the dark? *whispers I am too*

I’m not so much scared of the dark as I am uncomfortable in it. Never know what could sneak up behind y-! RIDGE! Don’t do that!! Ha! I’m sorry, darling! You were just too easy a target. Haha. Very funny, Ridge. You’re lucky I don’t have a torch right now. I’d stick it right up your- Darling! Language! There are innocent readers looking at this right now! Oh please, Ridge. They’re all not so innocent, thanks to you and your dirty mind and mouth! I am not that bad! I didn’t influence any of them… well that much. See! You even admit to it! Please readers, don’t let his awful ways influence you! You don’t want to follow in his footsteps. You have to try and retain some of your innocence. Now you’re just overreacting, darling. Now, how about you answer that question truthfully.

What? I am answering it truthfully! Oh, so you mean some of those nights where you’re clutching a torch in your hands and checking the house for ‘specters’ is just for fun? Ridge! I just- Why you- Careful, darling! Holding your breath like that might make your head pop right off! Oh, be quiet! I’m not afraid of the dark! I’m uncomfortable in it! That is all! Stop grinning like that!…. Though… there is nothing wrong at all with being afraid of the dark, reader. Sometimes it just takes a little help to get over the hurdle. It can be an object, an animal, or a person that brings you comfort in those times. My object to help with my slight discomfort just happens to be torches. Yes. Torches everywhere to be precise. Walls of cascading light every-  Ridge! Just- Ignore him. Just know that if you need to talk about it further, reader. I am here. You’re not alone. Sounding more and more like a parent, darling. Ridge… don’t start.
