Yeah? [He tries to manage a small laugh.] You would like the nerds. Nerd.

[infezione]

[That does manage to get a weak laugh out of him, so. Success?]

Mm, it's for more of a pragmatic reason, admittedly, but that is part of the appeal.

[switchaxe]

Neeerd~

[A gentle tease, to hopefully distract.]

Too bad they ain't my thing, really.

[infezione]

Yeah, it really is too bad... We'll figure something out.

[Well, now that he's distracted, he's starting to calm down.

... A quick kiss.]

We should see about getting that teapot furnished a bit more, I think. Can we hit up the IKEA soon, cucciolo?

[switchaxe]

Ye--uh.

[Pet names always get Ash, and he short circuits a little at this new one.]

Wait, you call the dogs that. Babe, did you call me puppy?

[He's guessing.]

[infezione]

I did, yes.

[And now he's grinning, menace that he is.]

It's a pretty common term of endearment for guys in Italian!

[switchaxe]

Baaaabe...

[Ash's whine sounds an awful lot like a dog's whine right now, but he's not really complaining.]

You're terrible.

[infezione]

[Ash you are absolutely not disproving your boyfriend's point in calling you "puppy".]

You love me anyway.

[At least he's clearly feeling better?]

[switchaxe]

[He smiles, a little dopey.]

Yeah. I do.

[infezione]

[And that makes Pat's grin soften to a smile.]

That bracelet you gave me for Christmas is gonna seriously come in handy.

[A quick kiss.]

[switchaxe]

Shit, no kiddin'. Wonder if I need to start looking for something I can use like that.

[infezione]

Might not be a bad idea... I'll keep an eye out, too.
