[ That... Isn't the answer she's expecting. A good part of her had been assuming Cordelia was joking even with her prodding that Tex should ask anyway. The other part of her...

The other part of her is a whole mess of feelings she's not sure she wants to try to decode right now. But she has her answer and while it's not the one she expected, she finds it's one she wants. Which leaves her with what to do now that she has it.

There's a long pause on her end too. Not because she has any issues with texting, but because she needs to figure out how best to answer.

Instead she ends up with: ]

Time and location?
use_everything: (You sent Ivan?)

[In a weird way, he actually hadn't been expecting that answer. Or any answer really. Dear god this had a wholly Betan stamp all over it. He sets the comm down a moment to rub at his face and consider.

It certainly answered which question, and her intent. ... He... didn't find it displeasing in the slightest. More overwhelming than anything, perhaps.

For one, he'd never had to figure out a date in his whole damn life. Of course, there had been thoughts of what he should have done for Cordelia if he'd had the time, luxury and lack of pressing life and death situations at the time...]

1700 tues meet here

[There. A whole 24 hours to research and make sure it was entirely square with Cordelia.]

[ If there was one thing she never thought she'd be doing, it would be getting involved with a married couple. At least when Cordelia had propositioned her, Tex knew exactly what she was getting into.

With Aral being thrown in, in any measure, it's a whole new situation. Deep breath. Meeting here means they're at least starting off in neutral territory. That should make whatever this is less rocky to start. Hopefully. ]

I'll be there.
use_everything: (That had to hurt)

and I respect that.

[It's another awkward pause trying to decide how one answers something like this. Ranging from the vaguely positive to military neutral to Are you sure?

In the end, he set the comm down and left it there.]
