[Taryon looks over the forest, looking like any collection of trees back home at first glance, then noticing the odd vines and magical atmosphere when he actually focuses. It's difficult to imagine an entire patch of nature suddenly disappearing. One man fighting a bunch of trees sees rather ridiculous. ]
I'm not really into guys that pick fights all the time [except when it makes them look cool, but everyone has lapses in judgement] so it's a bit...yeah. But I'm flattered that you'd try to defend me if something happened.
Lots of people? I want to be a better person, if not perfect. [He runs his fingers through his hair slowly and tilts his head back - this is purely to show off the silky smoothness of his locks.] But I'm getting there.

This was nice.
no subject
We can do this more often, if you want.
...As a friend thing, or whatever. [Anything that gives a chance for Taryon to socialize.]
no subject
Yeah. It's not a bad idea.
no subject
Sounds perfect. As long as the forest won't kill us, of course.
no subject
That should deter any problems.

I could do it.
[ pushed hard enough, determined enough, angry enough . . . and dolph could do anything. ]

Are you trying to impress me?
no subject
Is it working?

["You remind me of Grog when you say you want to literally beat up the forest" is not a good way to guarantee a second date.]
I think I'm just confused. [A beat.] I get it, you looks pretty strong, but I'd rather not...have you burn this all down.
no subject
Don't worry about it. It's just me making a shitty joke.
[ it's the only kind of humour he really knows. ]
no subject
...I mean. You never know about a guy you just met, right?
no subject
[ maybe that was his mistake. if alex wasn't the first, his only . . . but then again, who would even date him? he hasn't had much luck. ]
I wouldn't take it personally if you have an issue.

[ and he always looks cool in a fight. ]
no subject
No one's perfect. [He'll have to see how Dolph is like when they're in danger again before he can decide how he feels.]
no subject
[ not dolph. there are parts of himself that he wishes were better. more like a person. someone who could be held and loved and chosen.
but that's on him to work out. ]

[ he closes his eyes for a moment. ]
I was perfect. A perfect soldier. A perfect weapon. A perfect captain. They made action figures of me. Movies. Posters. It's just a perfect lie.
No one can be perfect.
no subject
...So, what do you want to be here? Other than all that you mentioned?
no subject
There's no rush anyway.
