"I dunno about that. The person I want to kiss is..." Sal trails off, realizing what he just said. But it's not like he's pining for Eureka, exactly, and Eureka wouldn't expect him to refrain from kissing anyone else just because they have this undefined thing. He feels vaguely embarrassed anyway, even though the two of them don't even know each other.

He doesn't complete the sentence. "Everything's so goddamn weird, like all the time. It doesn't make sense, but I kinda don't feel so nervous around you anymore." His smile is a little wry as he looks at them. "I'm not all that nice outside of here."
