It's different. A walk is just a walk. You're just... walking down the street together and talking and that's it. That could happen any day even if you didn't ask. No one thinks anything about it. Getting food together is... is...
[Leia's really missing out by not seeing him in person. Such a beautiful sunset taking place on his coppery skin.]
[She came here partially to tease Ezra for his little crush, but now it's time for actual advice apparently???? Her tone is patient as she responds, any hint of teasing long since gone.]
Asking someone on a date isn't pushing. It's pushing if she refuses and you don't accept her answer.
[the answer is clearly try outrunning a gang of criminals with her by hiding in a dumpster. It's foolproof.]
The way I see it, the only way to know is to ask. And if she wants to remain friends, that's not such a bad thing, is it? You'd still like spending time with her regardless, wouldn't you?

She agreed to go on a walk with you. I can't imagine she'd turn down lunch.

Well, she did meet her husband by jumping into a garbage compactor with him. Not exactly a comparable experience.]
I just want to make sure she's even interested in me like that. Maybe she only thinks we're friends.

[Ezra wrinkles his nose, not at the thought of being just friends with her, but at another thought.]
Well, I would, but what if she doesn't?
Look, I just don't think it'd hurt if I just spent some more time being friends first.

[But with that said--]
But, don't be afraid to just try and ask her out when you're ready. Or even just ask her to get a meal just as friends.
no subject
I'm not afraid, just being careful. I'm learning from my mistakes. That's a good thing, right?
Don't worry, Leia, I won't sit back forever.
