Hey man, I ain't judgin'. I'm just saying that now that you aren't in space you're too damn scrawny. Gravity's gonna make you like cave or something.
[ No he doesn't really think that, he's just teasing.
And yeah...Hal was that bad.
Though that all aside Dirk was busy making up the best damn dinner he could. After what happened he just wanted to do what he could to take his mind off of it all. That had scared him more than he realized. The entire time Duo had been out he was freaking out, constantly having to check him over, make sure he hadn't died. Even with Hal constantly telling him the other was fine, Dirk was terrified.
Duo was becoming something of an important person to him. Sure he hadn't known him as long as he had known Roxy, and no he probably couldn't compare their relationships because really they were different.
Actually.
If there was any relationship he could even begin to compare it to it was his and Jake's. The whole crushing on him part aside, Dirk and Duo got along great. They shared many of the same interests and faults, as well as seemed to give each other the pushes they needed when they needed them. It was a lot like how Dirk and Jake were...always trying to help the other be better...even if it didn't work out.
Of course, thinking about Jake only put him in a worse place. There was a reason he got so damn frustrated at Hal. He had pushed Jake to the point of wanting to literally run away from him. Hell the guy went to a different world to get away, ignoring him all the while. So looking at how close he had become with Duo...Dirk didn't want a repeat.
He'd just settle for friends. It was better that way.
