[Look, if Jacob thinks Ned is going to be too consumed with desire for sloppy kisses to finish this glass of champagne, he's in for a rough surprise. He's in it for the long haul now. Good job.]
Don't I know it? You've been giving me the same googoo eyes practically since we met.
[Jacob has a big crush on a man who says googoo eyes without irony. Let him drink his champagne in peace.]
[Jacob contemplates the exact meaning of "googoo eyes" while he's making them, making him the truly dumbest boy Ned could have chosen to go on the train date with.]
It's hard not to when you were the smuggest prick I'd ever met in London. I don't think I've ever come across anyone else who would just walk around my train like he owned it already.
[Ned is a prick, Jacob is truly good at this whole sweet talking thing.]
[There he goes, doing it again!! Ned very nearly says this to him directly, but he chooses to roll his eyes and drink instead. That will get him through the googoo eyes.]
What can I say? She's got an undeniable charm. [fuck, what a beautiful train!!!!
Also, he's starting to suspect Jacob doesn't understand the phrase "googoo eyes" at all. In that case, he's obligated,] You're giving me the eyes right now, you know.
[There Ned goes, talking about his train love. It's truly a miracle Jacob is still making the eyes at him during this, up until Ned points it out. And even then, he's still smiling like an idiot despite himself.]
I don't know what you're talking about. I've never looked at you in any googoo way, ever.
[Jacob, please listen to yourself. Ned doesn't even dignify that with a reply, but rather does his very best exaggerated googoo eyes impression, right here right now. It's ridiculous. His eyes have never been this big and shining before. He throws in a fluttering of eyelashes for good measure.
And then it's over and he sits back to drink more alcohol.]
[Jacob didn't spill his champagne earlier, but he is going to choke on it now. Witness it drip down his chin before he sets his glass down to wipe it on his... arm. He sure is something, that Jacob Frye.]
Lies and slander. For-- For all I know, that's you looking at me during fights.
[Why does he date this boy: part 2. Ned would genuinely pull out a handkerchief for him, rudely, but it's in his vest pocket and he already abandoned that behind him somewhere.
Either way: this is not the sharpest way to convince him to climb into any laps.]
Not exactly, but never mind that. Don't think I haven't caught you checking to see if I'm watching.
[It isn't the sharpest, but Jacob... isn't all that sharp in the first place. It has to be part of his charm, because Ned's still here. Look at him, all leaned back with his great muscles showing.]
I only look at you because half the time you're yelling me to beat a man's face in. I think you've gotten more excited for me punching someone than I have.
I'm not sure my manager is leading me in a prosperous direction. All that, and I don't get any sort of reward for bringing him in so much.
[It is romantic, or is it greedy... One of these things has Jacob looking at him like he's the best man that's walked the Earth, though, so one of them is working.]
It'd be dull without you, I'll give you that. Most things would these days. What are you going to do when you've hit the highest you can go, Wynert?
No such thing, Frye. [The highest he can go?? Truly impossible. Even at the top there's probably more, and heaven forbid Ned Wynert get complacent and then like, shot or something. That's what happens to complacent people.
But he won't be super serious and weird about The Business for this whole date, thankfully.] I'm thinking I could celebrate in the meantime. Kill two birds with one stone—you can have your reward, too.
[The reward is kissing him on this train, naturally. Ned leans forward to loop an arm around Jacob's shoulders, tugging him over to smooch that dopey look right off his face.]

That's for inspiration; I lose money if you don't win. Think of me as a kind of manager.
[Betting that your boyfriend can hurt the most people is a romantic gesture, isn't it? It must be.]
