I'll try and make this quick. [Yeah he realizes Joker will probably want to rest - and, frankly, even after passing out for a while once they knew how to go about curing people, he wouldn't mind it himself.]

Uh... maybe? It's... about Psi.

....Ah.

[There's the sound of shuffling, wings fluttering, and a door creaking before Joker speaks up again.]

What is it?

[Did he fuckin' bang someone else again-]

[Good guess but Ginko doesn't even know that happened once yet ~~probably, what the fuck is a timeline~~]

So I... got him a gift, but I don't... [sigh] How do I. Give it to him?

Oh!

[Don't mind him sounding pleasantly surprised, Ginko. He super thought this would be way worse than it was.]

Well, usually I'd say a nice little box or gift wrap is apparently a thing... but if it was that easy, I figure ya wouldn't be askin' me for advice, yeah?

[See, now Ginko is just wondering what Joker thought he was going to ask. He'll just make a mental note of that to ask about later... in the meantime, though. This is clearly more important.]

Yeah, uh... there's. A little more to it than that.

[Now how does he keep from giving himself a heart attack talking about this.]

I figured the, uh... those really impractical clothes? Those seem like something Psi would like, but I also... I don't know if he'd take me giving them to him to. Mean more than it does.

[....Holy shit. Quiet, awe-filled delight fills his voice.]

Did ya get him the skimpy stuff?

[oh he does NOT like joker's tone right now]

...Y'know what, this was a mistake, maybe I should just figure it out on my own.

No! [He practically squeaks it out, audibly doing his best to not burst out laughing.] I'll be good, I swear!

[QUICK, BEFORE HE CAN CHANGE HIS MIND-]

So ya don't want him thinkin' that yer ready ta do other things even if yer givin' him that, right?

Fine, fine. [He'd better.]

...Pretty much. I... don't want to get his hopes up, here.

Well... In Psi's case, I think it's best ta be blunt about it. We're friends, and I'd go ta bat for him anytime, but he can be a bit... oblivious at times.

[A dumb shit who doesn't remember they're all different races from each other.]

So just say that. Y'know- "I'm not interested in-" [...Yeah, best t just be blunt about it.] "-in sex, but I know ya like this kinda clothin' so I got it for ya."

No way ta misinterpret things.

...Yeah. Yeah, he can be. [No argument there.]

Right. That... that should work. [In retrospect it seems kind of obvious, but... he does feel a little better having talked to someone about the whole thing.] Thanks. Not really used to the whole... gift-giving thing, I guess.
