Odin has invited me to go on his "dating show" as a means of us becoming "better friends." I have already informed him that I have feelings for you, and he understands.
However, I would not go if it made you uncomfortable.
[ Okay, he is never going to get over "I have feelings for you", goodbye Skeets. He needs to take a moment. ]
Odin is the one from the Network posting about his show, correct? I don't understand, I thought the purpose of it was for him to make a connection romantically, why would he use that as a vehicle for friendship?
I think the purpose of the show is romantic, but I would be a platonic exception.
I also don't think he would be too eager to make advances on someone who has stated a lack of interest in him, and get "dumped" on television a second time.
I see. If everything is clear between you and you believe he will be capable of that level of emotional maturity I don't see any issue.
[ Skeets doesn't really know him but from what he's seen on the Network and the television show, he's skeptical. But again, he doesn't actually know the guy.
...As for himself. ]
I do not think I can promise you I won't get jealous, though that would be my issue to deal with not yours.
[ The first emotion he realized was really, truly his own was jealously after all. He knows he's perfectly capable of it. But he also knows he can handle it. ]
[A calm sounding text, but he is internally screaming. It's one thing to hold hands. Another to kiss. Another to confess feelings. These are all normal steps, they are fairly expected for a relationship. And being considered 'definitely desirable'...]
[Maybe that was also one of the reasons he wanted video; to hear Skeet's reaction. He doesn't need to see an expression change to know, but he likes hearing the sound of Skeet's vocoder with that emotional inflection.]
Good.
[He sounds entirely pleased as well, an unusual amount of warmth in his tone for just the one word.]
[A huff of a laugh, but he sounds really rather happy himself. He even glances away, turning his head to the side like he's a little embarrassed. If he was a human, he'd be blushing for sure.]

[hm.]
Is it in poor taste that I think I enjoy being considered desirable enough for you to be jealous?
no subject
If that is the case, I will state that you are definitely desirable enough for me to be jealous.

But he wanted this to be out loud. Wanted to hear Skeets out loud as well.]
I have never asked this before, so I don't know the "etiquette" on it.
But I would like to be your boyfriend.

Oh my. ]
Oh, yes, of course. [ He sounds like he is: flustered but pleased. ] I would like that very much.

Good.

This means we're dating, then?

Do you mind if I tell anyone?
no subject
[ Unless there's some reason he should be concerned.
Skeets kind of wants to tell everybody but is more restrained than that. ]
no subject
Yes, I don't either.
[He's going to be telling everyone.
What's restraint.
Although he's another emotion he doesn't commonly show: sheepishness. ]
...I'm very happy about this. The probability that I would find someone who likes me like this in return is not very likely.
no subject
[ He's also a bit embarrassed by himself, but not in a bad way he thinks. ]
all those typos last tag...
I'm not intending to fish for compliments. But I would like to know what parts of me you find attractive. Is it my height?

I am... glad to have met you, Kaytoo.

[No pause, immediate response. Indicative that he didn't even need to process much before responding.]
