[attr="class","lance i"]the bluntness of her words is not missed. it interrupts him mid-bite, forcing him to tear his attention away from the slice of pizza. he takes a bite anyways.

"are you upset because i'm all the way in lilycove instead of here with you?"

Katherine only nods at first and speaks as soon as she realizes that she's silent and distracted by her thoughts.
[break][break]
"..Yeah." It's all she can muster now but through the power of sheer will, her lips continue to move and awkward words continue to spill. "This is uhm, a bit blunt, huh? Maybe too honest, I don't know. But yes. I like it when you're around. You're fun, Lance."
[break][break]
If Lance was as dense as his date and somehow didn't know whether if Kat was only fooling around or developing serious feelings, it should be quite obvious now. It stopped feeling like they're friends with benefits a while ago, but she'd only noticed it now, while staring at him eating pizza.

a promise lies beneath his words; he only hopes it's enough to appease katherine. what's left of the pizza is its crust, which he quickly discards before reaching for napkins.

"until then, i'll find time to visit you here."

Something manages to appease Katherine. Lance’s words bring her comfort, or perhaps it’s simply his presence that puts her at ease, almost as if promising that she has nothing to worry about. Whether if such a promise is something she can put faith in— that’s a whole other subject that her mind refuses to acknowledge here, now.

“No pressure though, alright?” In other words, she doesn’t want him to think that she’s clingy. That she likes him more than she should. “Just— do what feels good to you too.”

She doesn’t want to push him around, and she most certainly refuses to push him away.

“Besides, you’ll probably miss me more than I’ll miss you.”

odds are — she's probably right. he convinces himself otherwise, finding a distraction with what's left of his drink.

"i'm ready to see your how messy your new place is."

“Mm, yeah. I think I will.”

It’s a lot easier to handle her own feelings if she tells herself that it’s Lance who cares for her more than she cares for him. Katherine wants to— no, she needs to believe that she isn’t compromising her job.

“Oh. Let’s go then,” She leaves a couple of bills on the table to pay for their meal, and then turns towards the exit, waiting for Lance to join her. “It’s not as bad as my old place, you know. Some of my ghosts prefer the gym, so it’s less messy in the house now.” It’s said almost as if she’s proud of that fact.

A cab eventually stops nearby to take them to Kat’s new home, a relatively short drive from the pizza restaurant and her gym.

She had been so used to apartments in tall buildings that living in an actual house felt foreign, but still, it’s easy to tell that this is her place. The television is permanently stuck with a white, static screen that indicates where her Rotom stays, and a couple more ghost-types happened to float by - both in and out of her house. They weren't confined by these walls.

“Here it is. It’s just the living room, my room— oh, and there’s a second room I’ve been using as a closet, I guess. I couldn’t think of anything else to do with it.”
