"Aw, you're going to make me blush." Too late, he already is.
"Usually I'm the guy dishing out compliments. I feel bad that I don't know enough about you yet to give you any good ones." He loves to give compliments, but he always wants them to be true and specific.
"Well. I'm an open book. Ask me any questions you'd like. Just be prepared for a 'fuck if I know' sometimes." Honestly, sometimes the hardest part of not really knowing who he is comes from not knowing how to construct a 'who' to be. Questions help.

"Being a freak among freaks, openly. I don't have to hide anything about me, don't have to live on the edge of society. I can be myself openly. I can be a part of a community. Have friends, have neighbors, have love. It's all new for me. Brand-fucking-new."
"It sucks that you had to do that before, but I'm so happy for you. No one should have to hide what they are or who they are to be accepted. I hope you only get to have more of everything as we go on. You've got one more friend today, now, after all."
