[CLOSED] Froggie went a courtin' and he did ride uh huh!

[veinglory]

Who: Psionic and Gottlieb
What: A date!
When: S1:D16, after closing
Where: Psi's trailer
Warnings: Dog Marriage Nothing! ... yet.


Some people would not have taken such an offer seriously. They would have laughed it off as an obvious refusal of their (admittedly very forward) affections and gone about their merry way.

Gottlieb was not one of those people, and not just because he wasn't really a 'people' anymore.

No, he had wasted very little time in following up with the troll on when they might have the date he'd been offered. In fact, the very next time he saw him he'd cheerfully brought up the matter, and much to his delight and arrangement had been made. They would get together after show hours, and... well. Beyond that, he wasn't quite sure! Truth be told, he hadn't enjoyed company of this particular sort since his time as a human, and he knew things had to have changed a bit since then. Not to mention, his new handsome acquaintance wasn't human himself!

As the promised meeting time approaches he nears the trailer door, wildflowers he'd gathered clutched in one hand as the other goes to knock. He's not really nervous, at all -- just incredibly excited, beaming from ear to ear as he hums a cheerful tune to himself.

Psi's smile becomes a lot more real at the response.

"Well then, what are we waiting for?" He asks, grinning wide as he lifts the safety bar from in front of them. The ride car shakes as he stands abruptly, holding out his hand for Gottlieb.

There's an unsure expression from Gottlieb when the other stands, and even a little more trepidation at the shaking beneath him. He looks up at Psi, swallowing hard, before reaching out to take his hand.

He pulls Gottlieb closer as their hands clasp. Holding the smaller man to himself he lets himself fall forward, using his psionics to catch them as the fall and lift them high into the air again.

The sound Gottlieb makes is some lovechild of a scream and a whimper, but he feels a little foolish once they're lifted back up again. He gives the other an apologetic look, laughing nervously against him.

"Y-you've certainly given this old heart a thrill."

[dorkypantsuit]

The scream is slightly surprised, but not too off-putting. He grins sheepishly afterwards, feeling a bit bad, he'd done it without thinking.

"Sorry, but I wouldn't let you fall. So don't worry."

[veinglory]

"Mm, I believe you," Gottlieb says in a breathy tone, "I suppose my reflexes should listen more to my brain."

He'll lean forward to plant another kiss, although the racing heart is probably able to be felt with them pressed together.
