[ i'm going to quote myself from a different tag: alice in wonderland believed in six impossible things before breakfast, poe in hathaway received six dark roasts before breakfast. he is so used to being roasted now. it's just part of his everyday life. but finn roasts make it worth it, i guess. he snorts. it's that little heart on the cup, man.

he doesn't know what he expected. like, dark roast aside, finn's response doesn't necessarily surprise him? it's a relief, but part of him just so strongly wanted to Believe that it would be okay after he jumped the thrawn hurdle that he's just like ah yes, i was right all along. poe uzumaki the next hokage. ]

Yeah? Good. Good. [ just because he ~kind of expected it all along~ doesn't mean he doesn't use his mouth words like a fool out of relief. he looks down at the hand situation they still have going. ]

I was just trying to say … I'm not expecting a lot. We can take it slow, you know. I dunno how to do anything slow, but I could try. And I'm not gonna pretend the whole thing's not kinda weird. Here. Not the best place for romance.

[ no one said sex island couldn't be the friends and lovers we made along the way, but still. ]
