Whiz laughs when Richard says he hopes no other blokes Grant flirted with suffered as much as he did. "I'd hope not, surely one of them would have also planted one on him in frustration if they did," he quipped. He laughs at Richard's addition. "Good point." Grant didn't seem to have a wide circle of close friends, similar to Richard. He most likely didn't have a string of 'very close mates' he was getting flirty with without realizing it. At least Whiz hoped not. It seems unlikely there's a bunch of blokes who thought he was cheating on a girlfriend with them either. Though what Richard adds last about the friends with benefits thing being recent catches his interest. "Oh? Like, you're the first?" Whiz isn't sure what to make of that. "And you've talked about his dating past?" He adds, because he's curious about that too; both about Grant's dating past and the fact that he's apparently told Richard all about it.

Richard laughs when Whiz calls him a numpty and swats him with the pillow. Despite himself he can't help laughing at Whiz's comment about Grant flirting and not realizing. While Richard is the lucky bloke who got to be Grant's sexual awakening and all the fun that's coming out of that. He thinks it was exactly that luck. As much as it's still a little painful there's clearly nothing special there. Grant's interested in him sexually and as a mate, nothing more. So clearly it's all down to luck that he is Grant's first. "All I can say to that is I hope none of those poor bastards suffered like I did. Confused and frustrated by all the mixed signals." Thankfully Grant is not giving mixed signals any longer. "Though from what I know any flirting was likely brief in duration. It's not like the bloke is making friends with frustrated gays and leaving them more frustrated," he adds with a laugh. Grant is like him in the fact that he doesn't have a lot of close friends. Maybe some of those on the periphery have been flirted with but likely not a whole lot because they're not around Grant much. "He also dated a fair bit so there's either a bunch of gays who think he's a cheater or maybe no one else realized it was flirting. It seems to just be recent that he's decided on friends with benefits." Richard doesn't mean him recent, because after New Year's he's fairly certain there's something like that with Cora. It seems to him that it's more like a since his mum became president recent thing.
