[When has Tate ever made a great decision in his life? Everything circles around the fact he is selfish and has wants, desires - needs. He justifies everything in his head and he believes it without a doubt. Empathy is something hard for him to come by, if it doesn't extend from something he wants or needs nearby. It makes for leading people on, feeding them what they want to hear because he needs them not seem terrible. Kavinsky promised him he'd stay, he'd care for him - and Tate holds him to it. knowing full well that he struggles with losing Ronan, he shouldn't be so quick to already be making plans to abandon him.
But he has three months to figure this out. To make something else happen - who knows if they'll still be here in July? He can work it out. He can promise Derek and Kavinsky the same things and somehow, in the end, it'll work out. Because he wants it to. That makes sense.]
I want that July 13th. okay? you come and you ask me and i'll answer.
until then we're still friends i'll work on getting better. being better. someone you'd be proud to sign. someone who can help you i'll work on being good pack. i promise. it's what I want.
[ he's not... being malicious, and he doesn't realize he's being kind of manipulative, but in derek's mind - this is already done. he said that tate had the freedom to choose who he wants, and he meant that, but he doesn't believe for a second that tate will choose anyone over him. july 13. tate's going to be his sub, just like he was always meant to be. this is all gonna be worth it, in the end. ]
I'm gonna be good for you, too. Now, and later, once I'm your Dom. No more fights, no more - worrying, without listening to you first. I'm trusting you, so. Trust me, too. Okay?
[ he's not... really salty anymore, now that he knows tate's going to sign with him in a few months, so. that doesn't really annoy him like it might have, yesterday. ]
That's... good, actually. Going to be easier to spend more time with you. In whatever capacity.
[ should he say anything else? he considers saying something-- reassuring again, about their future, about how better things will be in july, but. that's... putting pressure on tate. which he said he wouldn't do. so.
