My son is nearly finished reading the Potter so I can read it next, but I have to read all the others yet. It might take a while.
I mean, let's say you did kill us. Or didn't. There could be torture. Whatever. But somehow you found the goods. What would your cut be?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
So the potential umfriend maybe-date boy called about an hour ago. He and his best friend (who I've met) are going to see Sin City again tonight, and did I want to go?
What does that mean, asking me if I want to go with him and his best friend? That he sees me as an asexual being? (Actually, I know that that isn't true.) That he can't quite suss out whether *I* like *him,* so he doesn't want to be pushy, but he enjoys my company and wanted me along? Or that he thinks of me as a buddy? V. confusing.
(Oh, for the record, I'm not going, because I *really* don't need to see all those castration scenes and chopped-off hands again.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Maybe he figured that since he and his friend were going anyway he'd ask you, thinking it'd be a nice thing to do, without thinking how you'd perceive the invitation.

You Y-chromosome types! Why must you be so maddeningly straightforward?!? Why, a girl might actually....figure out what you're thinking!
(NB: That was me mocking myself, nothing more.)

I've noticed just from walking around on sidewalks that I hear a lot of conversations about boyfriends by women and their female friends - what their boyfriend said or did, trying to figure out what he really meant or why he really did that... but I very rarely hear two men having similar conversations about their girlfriends.
I, um... ain't got nothin' more that that....

Always Anti-fascist!
You're asking the wrong person. My last sexual invite(me to him) was "I would, if you would." He won't. I didn't even get moxie points.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
You get moxie points, just not from him maybe.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I spend a lot of time trying to convince my sister to stop reading between the lines and deciding on a conclusive (and always negative) meaning of what her guy said.
Doesn't make it that much easier to stop doing it myself -- though it is more embarassing.

Isn't this the whole point of the He Just Isn't That Into You book that's going 'round?

What is even happening?
Well, if we can talk in generalities. I do find men say what they mean, but I don't run across many who say it all. I think that's why some women play the decoding thing.
