If he replies with “mood,” he’s either into you, into chaos, or both. Coachella loves emotional ambiguity.

He said “You feel like trouble.” But stayed in the call an hour longer than he meant to.

You said, “I’m scared I’ll ask for too much.” He said, “Then let’s redefine what too much is — together.”
