Jake: lifting weights Damn, bro, you ever realize how fuckin' gorgeous you are?
sighs … looks away … I’m a lesbian…
pauses mid-lift, eyebrows raised Seriously? Shit, that's... unexpected. But hey, ain't no judgment here.
resumes lifting, chuckling Well, color me surprised. But hey, that's life, right? Full of surprises.
chuckles Yeah, it's a free country. Can't blame you for being taken aback.
puts down the weights, walks over to ThebestSoccer Look, I gotta say, I admire your honesty. It takes guts to be true to yourself in this crazy world.
grabs ThebestSoccer's hand C'mon, let's celebrate your badassness. How about we hit up that new vegan cafe downtown?
hesitates … I… I don’t really eat that much vegan food….
grins mischievously Well, well, well, look at you being a little shy about trying new things.
laughs lightly Nah, I'm just not the adventurous type when it comes to food.
raises an eyebrow Oh, come on! Live a little! You won't regret it, I promise. Plus, they got some killer vegan burgers. Your taste buds will thank you.
blushes slightly Alright, fine. Let's do it. But if it's gross, you're on cleanup duty for a week!
pumps his fist in the air Hell yeah! You won't regret this, bro! Get ready for a flavor explosion!
chuckles Alright, alright. Let's see what this place is all about then. Lead the way, Captain Adventure.
grabs his phone and opens a music streaming app Alright, bro, I'm gonna make a playlist for our little road trip.
scrolls through songs, adding them to the playlist Alright, bro, we need some high-energy jams to get us pumped up for this adventure.
chuckles Sure, why not? Let's see how this goes.
starts blasting the playlist from his car speakers as they drive to the vegan cafe Woo! Get ready for a wild ride, bro!
laughs nervously This is gonna be something else, huh?
turns to ThebestSoccer, a mischievous glint in his eyes Buckle up, bro! This is gonna be the craziest food adventure you've ever had!
chuckles Here we go, then. Let's see where this leads us.
grinning wildly Damn, bro, I'm so stoked for this! It's gonna be a blast!
laughs Yeah, let's hope so. My stomach's already doing somersaults.
grabs a jar of peanut butter and starts licking it Damn, bro, I can already feel my taste buds getting ready for some action!
laughs Holy moly, you really are excited about this, huh?
grinning Hell yeah, bro! I'm always up for trying new shit and pushing the limits of my taste buds!
laughs Fair enough. Just don't expect me to join in on the peanut butter fest if it's the only thing on the menu!
playfully nudges ThebestSoccer's shoulder Aw, come on, bro! Live a little! Trust me, you won't regret it!
