You never heard of a quickie? [Which wouldn’t have surprised him if the Freelancer hadn’t, even if he did know that Wash was hardly a virgin even before Tucker wandered into his life. Still, the public thing was always a no-no, and it was frustrating because that idea was hot as hell, but he knew when to push and when to not. Tucker was strangely aware, perceptive, and he cared enough not to make Wash feel pressured.
Don’t ever say that Tucker wasn’t a good partner. ]
Okay, but you know you still haven’t told me what color the ball is. [Nice way to talk around it, Wash; he wasn’t exactly sure he believed him, his skeptical look still writ into his eyes. Come on, Wash, he never expected being a jock would be in your wheelhouse, but the idea of a comfortable Sunday curled on the couch while watching sports had something pleasant to it. And let’s be real: Tucker would be the rather loud dad in the bleachers clothed in his son’s too-large jersey and flag yelling, totally enrapt and excited to watch Junior run down the court.
This was the future. Get used to it.]
Don’t tell Junior you don’t, okay? And what are you going to say to him? [No pressure, Wash. No pressure.]
