Relationships

[answerer_sword]

[It had been a week since Bazett had made her big mistake. A week since she had last spoken to Hayate. She had thought to herself whether or not she should just ignore it and let it fade from memory, since Hayate seemed to have adjusted well.]

[However, every time she is tempted to do that, she is hit by a fresh wave of guilt. Surely, Hayate was putting on an act to keep her from feeling guilty. And even if Hayate did not mind, Bazett would always remember and regret ravishing her friend and superior. Also, seeing as this is a small town, what would happen to Hayate if everyone found out Bazett's indiscretion? How much pain would she have to go through? Could she really hide like a coward and let Hayate bare the rumors and the subsequent social rejection?]

[There is no other way. Bazett would have to take responsibility. However, she has absolutely no idea on how to ask anyone out on a date, much less asking them to enter into a stable relationship. This is why she is currently putting out a call to the rest of Mayfield.]

1. Phone (public; filtered away from drones and Hayate Yagami)

...How do you ask someone on a date? Or...um...how do you ask them to be your girlfiend...?

2. Phone (private to Rin Tohsaka)

Tohsaka, there are matters that I wish to discuss with you.

3. Phone (private to Hayate Yagami)

Commander, could you please meet me at Makeout Point tonight at 7:00 sharp? I have important matters that I need to discuss.

4. Florist

[This is the second time Bazett has gone into the flower shop, but she looks even more guilty than the first time.]

Roses, roses...where are the roses?

5. Makeout Point (locked to Hayate Yagami)

[Bazett stands at the point, holding a large boquet of roses and blushing redder than a beet. She mentally goes through all her lines and actions. Tonight has to be absolutely perfect. Hayate deserved no worse.]

Re: [phone]

This is not something that can be handled casually. I want this to be perfect. What sort of presents should I bring? What sort of place should I take her?

[noluckduck]

Hey, I'm no expert. How the hell would I even know what a girl likes?

I mean. Romantically.

[answerer_sword]

...Then what do you like, romantically?

[noluckduck]

...

Shit, I have no idea.

[answerer_sword]

Then...what about your friends back in your world?

[noluckduck]

Flowers, I guess. Sappy stuff, y'know.

[answerer_sword]

And how would you define "sappy?"

[noluckduck]

The kinda stuff you'd see in some romance novel, I guess.

[answerer_sword]

Like music? Or flowers? Or a poem?

[noluckduck]

Yeah, ya got it. Not just any kinda music, though. It's gotta be awfully touchy-feely.

[answerer_sword]

Touchy...feely? What would be touchy-feely music?

[noluckduck]

Y'know, like Rod Stewart.

[answerer_sword]

Who?

[noluckduck]

Ah, forget it.

[answerer_sword]

Do the stores here sell his albums?

[noluckduck]

Uh... Honestly, I ain't sure if he was around in the fifties.

[answerer_sword]

Then it seems I will be at a loss for music. Would folk songs do?

[noluckduck]

...

Guess it could work, if your date really, really likes those.

[answerer_sword]

I...have no idea what sort of music she likes.

[noluckduck]

... Then ya probably don't wanna go with folk music.

[answerer_sword]

Very well, thank you for the advice.

[noluckduck]

Any time!
