You'd be a great dog owner, though. The dog looks like it likes you.

Or they could grin and bear my foot up their ass. That's a plan I can get behind.

To be fair the dog likes everyone who plays fetch, so it's not me. What's the problem with them? Generally bad to interact with, or cranky, or what?

You like playing fetch.

They're making the wrong decisions but they like to think they know everything and won't listen to reason. Those kinds of people.

I'm checking out. Talk to me.

Did it enough at other jobs I'm probably pretty proficient at this point. It's happening now, huh? I usually take notes on what we talk about each day and send it to them in an email just to avoid any potential issues. Don't know if it's any help. What's your ideal turn-out for this situation, huh?

put me in charge, probably?

not that I want to be the boss or anything, but I'll get things done way quicker.

How free are you for dinner?

I'll pay for dinner if you walk me through how you'd do it better.

No. You paid for dinner the last two times.

I know. I don't mind doing it, I'd be buying takeout anyway so really you're doing me the favor here.

[ shiro why are you so cute STOP BEING CUTE! ]

How about I buy the takeout and you're only responsible for the eating?

And I'll even list out all the ways I'll make this right.

Fine, but you let me drive you home afterward. And oh, lists. The way straight to my heart, other than takeout food.

Deal.

Huh, so what else is a way straight to your heart? And what do I get for being two for two on that?

Those are the two main ones. Guess you'll have to figure out the rest.

Let me guess, the third one is dogs.

How'd you guess? Pretty sure I like most animals though.

yeah? no favourites?

For pets? Dogs, but cats are good too. You can take the dog to work, though, so that's a plus. What about you?

[ is just gonna assume he doesn't mean the 'way straight to your heart' thing. ]

me, like a favourite animal?

do lions count?

[ keith ]

Lions are good, yeah. Big cats, huh?

[ shiro. there's a very obvious answer to that question! ]

Well, I don't mind dogs, too.

[ because shiro likes them, and if keith has to end up getting one, well, he's okay with that. ]

'Don't mind' huh? Hey, what kind of take out are you getting?

I'm fine with dogs, if that's what you want to know.

Remember the takeout place by fifth that you liked? I thought I'd swing by there after work.

[ nevermind that it's an hour away from his workshop and not on the route home. ]

So, same time, my place?

Did you have pets growing up? Oh, that sounds good. You know, except for how out of the way it is, and how delivery exists. Keith.

[ keith is still cagey af about his past :( ]

It wasn't a thing.

Yeah? I mean, I could do with the longer ride. Clear my head, you know?

[ More importantly, he also wants to please Shiro and make him happy. ]

[ shiro knows better than to push even if he really wants to. ]

What if we get it from that place we went last week instead and this weekend we can go for a ride up there.

sure
you need a lift? i can be by once you knock off
