[Flash is grinning like a fool. Not a big departure from usual.]

Y'know, I've been sitting here for awhile, thinking about how much this place kinda sucks and kinda doesn't. Then, it just hit me. The only reason why this place doesn't suck a hundred per cent is because there are some cool people here. And the coolest of them is Rapunzel. She's really awesome. Have you guys met her?

She's so awesome, in fact, that I would really like to date her. I mean, in an exclusive way, with titles.


So....

HEY, RAPUNZEL, DO YOU WANT TO BE MY GIRLFRIEND?

Check yes or no.

[ooc: THIS IS HOW I CHOOSE TO COME BACK.]

[thenormalsquint]

How romantic.

[Only not. 'Check yes or no."? Are you in first grade, Wally?]

[fastest_dude_ever]

[Basically, yes. Especially today.]

I was gonna take her for a moonlit run or to a nice dinner, but this seemed more right.

[thenormalsquint]

More right how? I'm pretty sure we call people on the phone and ask them out nowadays, but what do I know?

[fastest_dude_ever]

I'm old-fashioned, I guess. I still believe in the value of good ol' public humiliation.

[thenormalsquint]

Yes. Total humiliation is so sexy.

[You are never gonna get laid, Wally.]

[video]

[dragonofalthena]

There's no check boxes for her.

[video]

[fastest_dude_ever]

Huh...you're right. Oh well, a verbal "yes or no" will also work. Or text. That's okay too.

[video]

[dragonofalthena]

I've never heard of anyone starting a relationship with something written. Is that normal where you're from?

[grigio]

You two'd be adorable together.

[Julie ships it.]

video:

[fastest_dude_ever]

Wouldn't we?! Let's hope she thinks so, too.

Re: video:

[grigio]

Make sure to let me know how it goes, okay?

Video

[just_displaced]

Is this actually... I mean, people tried this when they were in elementary school. Does it still work? Because if it does, I've really got to give it a try.

Video

[fastest_dude_ever]

It works if the girl you're going for thinks your juvenile behavior is charming.

Re: Video

[just_displaced]

Oh. Well. I guess I'd have to find a woman that was interested in juvenile behavior. Or find a way to spin it as being charming. But I hope it works out for you. It's pretty... bold. To announce it publicly like that.

Video

[fastest_dude_ever]

You know what they say! Go big or go home. And since I'm not going home any time soon, probably...

You looking for a special lady friend, dude?

Re: Video

[just_displaced]

Yeah, something like that. Looking being the operative word. I mean, it's hard to meet people, even around here. How'd you meet Rapunzel? She seems nice.

Video

[fastest_dude_ever]

I met her my first day here. I thought she was cute so I went for it. Almost killed her but-- [shrug.] accidents happen. You just gotta put yourself out there, man.

Re: Video

[just_displaced]

She is cute. I mean, not that I'm going to hit on your girlfriend. If she is your girlfriend. You know what I mean.

Yeah, but how do you put yourself out there? I mean, other than almost killing someone?

Video

[fastest_dude_ever]

I get what you're saying I think.

Well, uh...you just...go...and talk to people? Go up to a cute chick and be like, "hey, my name is so-and-so, I like to do this-and-that, are you down?"

Re: Video

[just_displaced]

Uh huh.

[He looks unconvinced.]

And that works? I mean, it must work, since apparently you're capable of talking to cute chicks, so maybe I'll give it a try. Can't hurt.

[olduvai]

[ 'check yes or no', you for real, bro?? ]

Got a backup plan if she says no?

[fastest_dude_ever]

[So for real.]

Oh, just rescue her a couple more times. Women are really into not dying horribly.

[olduvai]

[ oh my god, you're actually for real. is it rude to laugh. ]

I'm pretty sure it's not just women who's not into dying horribly.

[fastest_dude_ever]

[Not at all, please laugh.]

That's true. Most men aren't into that either. I know I'm not. I guess if this doesn't work, I could win her heart by bonding over the things we have in common, like not wanting to die horribly.

[olduvai]

Okay, man.

[ right, he's chuckling now. ]

Let me know how that works for you.

[video] ADHGFHDG HI WALLY YOU DORK YOU SO CUTE

[tangledintower]

[Oh my god WALLY. You've got her blushing bright red, and she's speechless for a moment because WOW YOU JUST ASKED HER OUT.

And then, she blinks, trying to control the blushing (trying and failing, I might add), before she smiles shyly. Oh, Wally.]

Yes.

SURPRIIISE!

[fastest_dude_ever]

Yeah? For real? I can be your boyfriend?

I WAS VERY SHOCKED! :D

[tangledintower]

For real! I like you, Wally. I like you a lot, you're a sweet guy, I wanna give us a try!

SO IS HE! He meant to do something more romantic but well...curses.

[fastest_dude_ever]

I won't let you down. I'll be the best boyfriend ever. Guaranteed.

xD That's okay. She's just gonna do the 'I HAVE A BOYFRIEND' dance, so they're both dorks xD

[tangledintower]

And I'll be the best girlfriend ever, promise! Well, I promise to try. I don't think I've ever been anybody's official girlfriend before...

[Percy and her were never official. And Flynn doesn't count yet.]

the BIGGEST dorks.

[fastest_dude_ever]

Really? I haven't been anyone's official girlfriend either, come to think of it.... I can't give you a lot of advice except for be nice to me and kiss me sometimes.

Best pair of dorks ever though!!

[tangledintower]

[She laughs, blushing a bit.]

I think I can do that!

[anatural]

[...that was strangely cute. Korra can't help laughing a little.]

I guess that's one way to ask a girl.

Video;

[fastest_dude_ever]

It just occurred to me and, you know, I figured I should go with my gut.

Video;

[anatural]

So how'd it go?

[valentineluke]

...Hallmark didn't have a card?

[fastest_dude_ever]

...I didn't even look. You think I should've?

[affectioning]

Dude.

[fastest_dude_ever]

Dude!

[affectioning]

She said yes!

[fastest_dude_ever]

I know! Isn't that crazy?

[affectioning]

It's awesome.

[rideofthefearlings]

In no era or world has that approach ever, ever worked. Nor should it.
