Ahaha, it's a work in progress some days ... but I'd like to think I've gone at least a little better about it.

[Look just give him time to figure out how to walk in heels without dying and a whole new world will open up]

We'll see about that! And that sounds great. I'll be ready!

[before he signs off]

Oh, and Rean? I'm proud of you. I know it can be pretty nerve-wracking to put yourself out there like this...so I'm really proud that you did. [He knows Rean's got issues with his own value and self-worth, so for him to try to pursue someone he liked? It's worth being praised for what it was. ]

[It really is a big step. Granted, anything even remotely romantic is extremely tentative for Rean, as he's still learning to trust himself and facing his own feelings... But he set this up all by himself. That has to count for something, right?

Elliot being proud of him is the kind of thing that makes him blush. Imagine his feathers fluffing, if you will, while he rubs at his cheeks.]

I'm... really happy to hear that. Thank you.

See you soon!

[Well, now he has that to scream silently about until the date.

At least he's not late. Dressed in a long black coat over a button up and a dark red vest to match the red in his wings, he's already making more effort than usual. He adjusts some cufflinks awkwardly and wonders if this is too fancy... But he'll be fancy dancing so maybe...?

He crosses his arms as he waits by the gate, thinking.]

[That's really cute Rean. Elliot is smiling to himself as he reads the text response back, sending back a quick "Yeah, see you soon!" before he signs off for real to get ready. He may have another moment of freak out in private, because holy crap this is actually happening and not some dream like usual.

Elliot shows up not long after Rean, just a minute late after the designated time. Enough time to make it a little more relaxed, but not enough to cause Rean undue anxiety. He knows the place is a bit fancy and this is a date, so he's wearing the suit and tie he usually wears for when he plays at weddings- just minus the actual jacket so it was just the vest and dress shirt. Maybe if he had more time he would've picked out something new, but ah well. At least he tried to do his hair up nicely with a ribbon.

When he spots Rean, he smiles and approaches. It's a relief to see he had the same idea with the outfit]

Hey Rean! You're looking great tonight.

[It's not that different from usual greetings he's done, but there's something a little more sheepish in his smile because holy crap this is actually happening]
