[molly just stays casual then, giving a half shrug, though mineo isn't looking at him.]
I don't think anyone's offered out of pity. [Well,] I've never offered out of pity. I just thought you'd have fun, is all.
[ spinning the flower ring on his finger a bit, idle. ]
You know my story. I feel like ... I missed quite a few years, and I've always felt like I'd probably go early. And I love experiencing things. Catching up on all that life stuff. Doing things that make me happy, doing things that make me feel good and not feeling guilty about it, doing things that make me a bit scared, trying things I shouldn't just to know what it's like. I do all the shit I do because it's new and exciting and fun and I want as much as I can while I can. Not everyone's built that way, I understand, but I do think a lot of people spend a lot of time avoiding things that'd make them happy for silly reasons sometimes.
[ . . . . well. it makes sense. and mineo is clearly thinking about it, turning it over in his head before he looks back at molly and offers a smile.]
.... there's something that I don't want to let this place take from me - even if I know it's pretty romantic and can come off as strange. But I think it'd be nice, if I could meet the person that I want to spend the rest of my life with, and say to them.... "I worked really hard to make sure I could give you, and only you, as much of me as possible." When I fall in love, I wanna give them my everything.
But -
You're right, about other things. I've learned a lot about what's important to me here, and there are some things I'm more willing to let go of, for my sake - or for the sake of important people.
I like hearing what you have to say, Molly - but I always do. So that's not a surprise.

pulling the ring off his finger, grabbing mineo's hand and pressing the ring back into it.]
Then stop proposing to people you silly fuck.
