Mide: I’ve been meaning to ask — what took you so long to talk to me? It wasn’t that long, but in this place, it felt like it. Not forever, just longer than I expected.
Bright: Yeah, longer than you expected. Honestly, I was just taking my time. I already had an idea of who I wanted to connect with first, but I figured I’d observe a little.
Mide: Observe what, exactly?
Bright: Just wanted to see if you were maybe already vibing with someone. If you were, I’d have backed off.
Mide: Why would you think that?
Bright: So… you knew I’d come talk to you eventually?
Mide: Yeah, I had a feeling we’d talk at some point. And we did — so it’s cool. I actually liked that our first proper convo happened on the way to that arena thing. It felt like a mini date. It was cute.
Bright: Yeahhh, I love how chill you are.
Mide: Same. You’ve got this calm, grounded energy. I like it.
