No promises? I'll be there. And I'll be happy to show you I'm very serious about my word.

You’re a busy man, Mister President. I don’t want to take precedence over the well-being of the country, but if you have the time in your schedule, I could be convinced. Or gently coerced.
[ he doesn’t care what they do - he just wants to put the other man’s mind at ease. ]
Good. I know the way your heart works, Ash. It doesn’t matter to me what people say - I know you’re always doing your best to do what’s right. It’s why I’m always right here when you start to doubt yourself. That will never change. I should really come with a warning.
( it settles something nameless that lives in ash — this thrumming like a bee's wing to constantly stay in a forward motion, to always make progress than is linear and sensible. he likes tim for his practicality, but he loves tim for the dreaming north star of his heart, this unshakable belief that divides the cynics from the dreamers. he finds himself smiling at his phone, fond. )
What would that warning look like? "Slippery when wet"?
Be careful, I might have to use a wild card and surprise you one day.
[ there’s an honest warmth in ash that will never fail to make tim feel grounded even when he feels the most unmoored he’s felt the whole of his life. ]
I don’t know about that warning, though. You don’t seem to have any trouble holding onto me when wet. Maybe this is better? Warning: do not leave unattended. May distract the President with the promise of illicit activities. 😇
