[ it's fine, nancy's having an "uhh" moment too, considering she already had sounds good to me. it's a da typed out before he sent that correction. deletedeletedelete. ]
I'm actually not sure I know what you mean... Could you clarify?
Kidding. It's a not-a-date date. If that's what you prefer.
[ she's feeling a little #bold, apparently. ]
Too bad there's no chance of being able to convince Dustin to visit her either. Although there is a chance he'll still go to camp, at least. I know his mom wants him to go... And he can bring my brother with him. And Lucas, and Will.
( god. she nearly gave him a heart attack with that first text. the fact that he wrote date-date is already mortifying, without having to explain what the fuck he's talking about. as if he ever has a clue. )
[ nancy has an instant-impulse response at the ready, but she stops herself to think for like, 10 seconds, to make sure it's the right kind of instant-impulse. luckily it is. ]
I don't think it is, actually.
[ she frowns at herself, reading it back, because she does't think. she knows. she needs to get better at owning things like that.]
Not to say I would prefer that we strictly define it as a date-date instead, but... establishing that it's specifically NOT a date-date? Definitely not what I prefer, no.
But it's also totally okay if we do keep it as strictly not-a-date date, too! So.
Oh, always. I can't remember the last time I went a full day without one of them doing or saying something that drove me nuts. But no, I just like the thought of them spending three totally normal, nerdy weeks together this summer, far away from Hawkins.
( oh. well. steve has his own instant-impulse response at the ready, but he stops and considers it too. just to make sure it's the right kind. and he's not sure if it is, but it feels like it is. and that counts for something, right? )
then it's a date we can figure out what kind later
but i get it and hey, if it means they're out of your hair for a little while added bonus, right?
