Impressionable

The Antiquer was in a bit of a grump with me on Tuesday night because I'd been teasing him about going on a man date with Initials in the Tree.

"I'll be leering at young girls all night long, just to counter any impression people might have."

"That'll never work. Initials will just giggle and slap your arm and say, 'Oh do stop it!'"

"You've got me worried now."

"Oh, as if. I'm only joking. No one's going to think anything, you idiot."

"You reckon?"

"Of course not! Especially if you two avoid letting your hands brush together too often."
