“okay, look, I’ll hit a guy with a bow. it’ll be like a club. a boomerang that doesn’t come back.” this was hopeless. gerry had just been- interested in getting to know kate better. they’d always been together in groups, or at least with cassie. maybe they had hung out like- twice on their own? so he asked about archery, an activity that he had never been great at, but he happened to know that she was excellent at. it would be like if she asked him to take her on a plane with him piloting, or perhaps to sonic for an ice cream blast. it would be in his element. gerry postured himself again. “alright- if i hit the target-” he wanted to suggest that they leave and do something else, but that was not thoughtful at all. he was here for her, to get to know her. not eat ice cream. his fingers wrapped around the rest. “i dunno kate- maybe the sights are off. not suited to my hight. I’m holding it correctly?” ( @nvthawkguy )
