Yeah, of a certain age. We might not look as old as we are, but I'm not gonna date someone I feel like I oughta be paid for keeping an eye on 'em and tucked into bed by a certain time instead.
I wasn't talking about me needing it, I was talking about them needing it. If they're too young, I feel like I'd be looking after someone's kid.
I don't think it counts now, not with it sounding like you're asking me out instead.
[ She put him on the spot, but he does think even if he'd been beating around the bush it might not have been too difficult to figure out who he had his eyes on.
Jury's out on if he'll regret letting that out or not, knowing how he will always feel like she deserves better than him. ]
If you were trying to argue against being a good choice for a date, you just did the opposite. So yeah, I want to. That's what I've been trying to tell you.
Yeah, but that means we can skip the awkward part.
Unlike you I never went on a single date back in the day, so maybe you can show me what I missed. We might have to improvise with the dancing though, unless you wanna go clubbing. [ The thought of them going clubbing is actually hilarious. She doesn't mind some of the music but he'll probably be grumbling the whole time. ]
It could be awkward still. Just because I took you places back then, they weren’t dates.
[ Yeah they were, just without asking her out. They may as well have been dates, from how he wanted to kiss her the whole time. ]
They’ve gotta have dancehalls that do nights for the kind of dancing we like. They probably call it vintage nights, making us feel older than they already do.
Nah. You'd already be better than the last one I went on and that wasn't her fault - it was me having to lie about things so I didn't talk about being brainwashed by Nazis and killing people and scare her off.
Unless you wanna go punch some people for old time's sake, I guess that's what we're doing.

I'd date you, but I know I'm not your type.

[ Maybe it’s changed over the decades, but the one thing that hasn’t would be his interest in her. ]

Redheads in skirts who fawn over you.

[ Well. There's a history with Romanoff, but that was back when he was under Hydra's control and it's not something any of them talk about. ]
I've been noticing blondes more lately.

So are you gonna ask me out or what?
[ Listen, it's easy to be brave via text. She can always take things back and say she was just kidding and they can move on as if nothing happened. ]

Alright.
Are we talking about the kind of date we would've gone on before or one closer to what people go on now?

We'll show them who's vintage. That what we're doing then?
