So uh...for the dance this weekend...it seemed kind of silly, because I don't think that many people here even know how to dance. But then I thought that a lot of people like music, and dressing up is okay, so maybe it's okay too.

[An awkwardly long pause]

Anyway, my friend definitely wants to go, and there's this girl he'd like to go with. But he doesn't know if she wants to go or if she has a date or how to ask. So I said I'd find out for him. What's the best way to get a girl to go to the dance with you?

It's for my friend.

Well, you know, asking is always a good start.

You could say, 'Hey, I was wondering if you have a date to the dance?' and if she says no, then well, ask if she wants to go.

And you know, if anyone's reading this and wanted to ask me out, well... I'd probably say yes.

[binarysky]

I—he can't just ask like it's no big deal! I mean, it's not. She'd know what he was going to ask if he asked that first.

What if you didn't like them?

[coyote_walking]

What's wrong with her knowing? I mean, once he asks she'll know then too, right?

Not a whole lot of people I dislike and I haven't really been here long enough to really be into anyone special, so... It would just be really nice to be asked.

I still say just ask her. What's the worst that can happen? She says no. And if you don't ask you won't get to go with her anyway.

[jimmy_w]

Does your friend normally talk to this girl?

[schooldaze]

For your frien-- riiiiiiight...

You could ask or uh get someone to ask for you, I mean for your friend.

[ COUGH. ]

[binarysky]

But if she doesn't like him, and she knows what he's gonna say, it'll be weird.

...

I'm not going to ask her, my friend is. Cuz he's the one who likes her. My friend.

[binarysky]

Yeah, all the time. They're friends too. Just different friends than like him and me.

[binarysky]

[Oh, hey bro. Family member. Guy.]

That'd be...cheating.

I think.

[boutant]

Which friend?

[coyote_walking]

So, your friend doesn't even want to take the chance? If he doesn't take the risk, he has no chance of a good result.

Okay, sure, whatever.

[schooldaze]

[ HAY I HEAR YOU LIKE....well...I hear... ]

Cheating? It's not a test...

But ummm..... no I guess that'd be kinda stalking uh hm... ...you could...ask one of her friends instead? Or is that still cheating...

[binarysky]

[EEP]

Uh. Um. Sora!

[Not that he and his half-brother are...really friends yet...but a convenient cover story is a convenient cover story.]

[jimmy_w]

Well, maybe you-- he could bring it up in conversation casually, sort of indirectly? Something like whether a mutual acquaintance is going or not.

[binarysky]

Oh. I never thought of it like that.

[Just go with it and let him believe he's remotely pulling this off.]

[binarysky]

Huh. That might work. Maybe?

[boutant]

... Did you forget his name?

[ Only she doesn't suspect at all, herp. ]

/misunderstanding threadjack

[schooldaze]

Yeah? What?

[binarysky]

I didn't say I wanted to ask anyone.

[binarysky]

No, that's the friend. Person. Who likes someone.

LMAO get oooouuuut

[binarysky]

[omg no]

I wasn't talking to you!

[ h i s s i n g ]

[coyote_walking]

I guess you've got to decide if it's worth taking the risk. Personally, I think it is.


[Yeah, she's just going to let him think she doesn't know it's him.]

[binarysky]

I'll think about it. Before I get the chance to talk to him again.

[And that is why Mercy is a bro]

[coyote_walking]

Good. Think hard. Then tell him to just ask her for heaven's sake.


[And this is probably also why she never gets a date. Here's Mercy, one of the guys.]

[boutant]

You sounded pretty unsure...

[ /koolaid guy ]

But you said my name!
