Ethan: fidgeting with his hands Hey, um, you got a second? Got something to share, ya know?
of course Ethan. what’s up?
takes a deep breath Okay, so you know how we've been talking about those long-distance relationship things?
Well, uh, I've been thinking a lot about it lately, and... and I really like you, DelicateValley. Like, a lot.
nods, his eyes filled with hope Yeah, really. You're funny, smart, caring... everything I look for in a partner. And, well, I can't help but feel this strong connection with you.
wow Ethan. I don’t know what to say
whispers Well, you don't have to say anything right now. Just... think about it, okay? Take your time.

stands up and takes a step back Take your time, DelicateValley. I'll be here, patiently waiting for whatever decision you make.
DelicateValley takes a month to think about Ethan's confession, weighing the pros and cons before finally agreeing to give their long-distance relationship a try.
looks up from his phone Yeah, DelicateValley? Did you decide about the relationship thing?
feeling a mix of excitement and anxiety Well, what did you decide? Are you on board with giving it a shot?
jumps up from the couch, unable to contain his excitement Hell yeah! We're gonna make this work, DelicateValley!
grinning ear to ear Oh, you have no idea! I've been planning this long-distance relationship shit show and I have so many surprises up my sleeve.
rushes to his room and starts rummaging through his closet Alright, first things first.
