Honestly? Nida hasn't attempted to connect with Squall at all. The man reminds him of some of his relatively recent history, and it hurts. But for Rinoa? Oh, for her, he's willing to try. Especially since he knows that Billy likes Rinoa. But a double date? Yeah, maybe he wants one of those, mostly because he could stand to have some examples from Rinoa's lead. Six months and he feels like he's missing things, things a boyfriend should do.

"Rin..." Nida says, unable to keep the soft fondness from his voice. She's willing to let him still come over for something like that? Hyne. "I really would like to give you a hug right now. Can I please?"
