Mun, a teensy favor....

The next time I start flirting with a guy who you know damn well is really a girl?

TELL ME!

How does that happen?

[notelizabeth]

She looked and dressed like a guy! A really pretty guy!

[madangry_madcrazy]

Oh, well, that should've raised a red flag right there. We menfolk are generally not 'pretty'.

[memory_of_fire]

I'm failing to see the problem here.

[madangry_madcrazy]

She was expecting one thing and got another?

[memory_of_fire]

Still I'm missing how that's devastating, a little embarrassing sure, but not the end of the world.

[madangry_madcrazy]

Look at it this way. You go to a fast food place and you order a chocolate milkshake. Having paid for you order you expect to get, you know, what you ordered, but surprise, you get a strawberry milkshake instead. Wouldn't that grind your beans?

[notelizabeth]

Maybe you're not, but there are plenty who are.

[notelizabeth]

Wha-!? I hit on a girl! That is totally embarassing!

[memory_of_fire]

So? There are girls that like girls. Even if you're not one of those people it's not the end of the world or anything just because you hit on her.

[madangry_madcrazy]

I'm not sure if that was supposed to be an insult, but, regardless, unless they're very androgynous fellows tend to be 'handsome' rather than 'pretty'.

[notelizabeth]

But I'm not one of those people, so I prefer not to do it! I mean, what if she liked me back? Then what kind of a mess would I be stuck in?

[notelizabeth]

Pretty, handsome, tomato, pohtatoe. You get what I mean.

God, so sorry for the threadjacks.

This is better than Agony County.

[madangry_madcrazy]

I get that you apparently called me ugly.

[memory_of_fire]

Explaining the situation? I mean if you explained the situation I'm sure they would understand. I'm sure you weren't the only one to come to the conclusion that she was a guy.

[notelizabeth]

Well, blue skin isn't exactly attractive.

[notelizabeth]

Yeah, but as far as I know I'm the only one who took her on a date.

[madangry_madcrazy]

Says the girl who likes her males as feminine as possible.

[memory_of_fire]

I guess that's true, but assuming you weren't exactly handsy with her I imagine you could treat it like going out with a friend.

Naoto-mun here, hi o/

Is it any comfort to know you weren't the first and won't be the last? And that the flirting went entirely over her head?

Hey! :)

[notelizabeth]

Really? You know that for sure? That's a relief then!

[notelizabeth]

I do NOT!

[doingthemistything]

She tends to be oblivious to most things that don't involve her line of work. [He chuckles.] Take it from someone who shares a headspace with her.

[notelizabeth]

Well, I wasn't "handsy", so you may be right...it may have been OK, all things considered.
