No, not now that I've decided I want him to. Could have done easily before it consciously occurred to me, but he's such a bloody minded little shit that now that he's going to sense the enthusiasm, he'll probably find some way to reason me out of it.
[Drawing a hand over his face and laughing.]
I can never reverse-psychology him into anything, he's much too intuitive.
...You know what Cambridge said, when I told him? 'I suspected as

[What he actually did was lose sleep and feel paranoid for days and
it was the most counter-productive remark he could have possibly made, but
Ricki can probably guess.]
Sooner'd be better, wouldn't it? I mean. You're just givin' yourself time to talk yourself out of it, the longer it goes.
[Though they first spoke about this a while ago, and it's still on the table, which seems like a pretty solid indicator that it will happen eventually.]
[Eggsy just pulls his finger and thumb across his perfectly straight mouth in a gesture of 'zipping it', but the smile is in his eyes. He really can't help it if 'trying to be a supportive friend while also being a warden' is coming across as backseat wardening.]
All right, all right, I'm going to get going, go do some mental composing. You, go get a good bottle of alcohol, we're making an exception and getting me drunk in the aftermath.

I'm sorry, darling. It's good when it's good.

Don't matter. I'm managing.
Have you thought about when you might...?
