I'm thinking those Cobb salads that have croutons and carrots and mushrooms and baby corns.

They so do not. I look like I belong on a yacht. They're the worst.

[unphase]

Oh, now that sounds really good. Why won't the aliens give us some lettuce? I'll even take plain iceberg lettuce at this rate.

No, no, they're adorable!

[theweakhavepurpose]

[He is dubious.]

The only good thing about them is I don't look like a depressive recluse when I'm walking around with eighty bajillion flowers plastered all over my clothes.

[unphase]

[she is positive!]

No, no, you don't look like that at all! You look brooding. With flowers.

[theweakhavepurpose]

Brooding. With flowers.

That doesn't sound like me.

[unphase]

It's completely you. Like Heathcliff or Mr. Darcy or one of those romantic heroes. Only with flowers.

[theweakhavepurpose]

Wow. No one has ever compared me to Mr. Darcy before.

[He's pretty sure that's a compliment. Every girl he's known who read that book or watched that movie would drop panties for Mr. Darcy in an instant. ]

Alright. I'll take it. I need to go stand dramatically in the rain and think morose things.

[unphase]

[it's definitely a compliment. and she's a fan of the classics, she's one of those girls]

Well, around here it would be brooding in the snow, but it's the same basic idea. Stare into the distance, think morose thoughts, and the ladies will come running.

[theweakhavepurpose]

I'll work on that.

Though I don't think any of the ladies here will come a running.

[And if they do they'll be underage.]

[unphase]

[tantalizingly] Maybe not here, but they will where I'm from.

[some of them might be underage by his standards considering that fourteen is the age of adulthood in the UP, but plenty of women his own age will also show up]

[theweakhavepurpose]

Don't start setting me up on blind dates just yet. I'm an emotional basket case remember?

[unphase]

They wouldn't be blind dates! I would vet them thoroughly to make sure they're good enough for you.

[theweakhavepurpose]

Gonna be my wingman?

[Okay that's..he's actually smiling.]

Thanks, but I don't think I'm in any state to be going on dates in the first place.

[unphase]

Absolutely!

[HOORAY!]

No, no, maybe not. There will be a lot of stuff to get used to, you'll want to do that before getting back into the dating scene.

[theweakhavepurpose]

Give me at least six months to learn the new future microwaves.

[unphase]

It won't be that long. And I'll be with you every step of the way.

[theweakhavepurpose]

Expect calls at 2 am when I can't figure out how to cook my frozen pizza.

[unphase]

[mischievously] I might be busy with my boyfriend at 2 am. But I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

[theweakhavepurpose]

Just don't answer your phone if that's the case.

[Come on man, he feels dirty thinking about this. Teenagers.]

[unphase]

Don't worry, I won't. I'll call you back as soon as I can.

[what? where she's from, fourteen is the age of adulthood]

[theweakhavepurpose]

[You're killing him.]

Don't make this awkward when I'm just trying to eat pizza.

[unphase]

[she puts on her most innocent expression]

Who's making this awkward? I'm not, I'm just saying I might be busy.

[theweakhavepurpose]

That innocent face does not work on me. You know how many times I've seen that from someone going 110 miles per hour in a residential area?

[unphase]

[she pouts at him]

I figured it was worth a shot. I should've known you wouldn't fall for it.

[theweakhavepurpose]

[The pout is slightly more effective.]

Does it work on the police back home?

... Do you guys have police?
