[ Once she's over her bout of pleased blushing, Ariadne heads over. Her messenger bag is with her, more out of habit than anything else. She's not planning on doing any sake-filled sketching, but one never knows.
[ And since he knows that it's you, Ariadne (spoilers: he kinda knows how you sound when you move, and the way you smell in a totally not-so-creepy fashion): ]
Come in! Door's not locked.
[ ...In which you will be greeted by a curious, green-eyed kitten who IS rather large, and has even larger feet and ears than he ought to. Hikaru's over at the kitchen, making maki. ]
Hi.
[ No Josh in sight: his boy's at the Elysium already. ]
[She's just going to grin at the wall wherever she is, wide like she just won the lottery.
Fwuh. And then the real world.]
Because -- justice and love. [is what she told Ariadne.] My best friend's boyfriend's been going on dates without her knowledge or approval. And he probably thinks it's totally cool.
[ It's a good thing that you can't see the frown on his face. Then again, you can probably hear it in his voice. He likes Ariadne. ]
I thought Ariadne and Johnny were both on board with an open relationship?
[ They had seemed like the type to him, at any rate. He's had some opportunities to read how they talk on the network, and seen them interact in person. ]
[She likes Ariadne, too.] Right I guess that was very subtle of me. [She groans a little.]
They are - I've been unintentionally using her as a sounding board when it came to polyamory and...stuff. [YOU KNOW, STUFF. YOU AND JOSH STUFF. Which feels silly, in hindsight.] They are, but as far as sex was concerned. That was fine - the romantic part, that's the part that was for the two of them only, at least that was what she thought.
