[Kurumi also likes the shithead but he's apparently even more clueless. ...and she honestly doesn't know why she asked him at this point.]
<NineHeaded>
but even if they weren't, a date is just two people with feelings for each other going out and doing something enjoyable together. so why not a spa, if that's what you're into?
awkward spot for a first date though. or is that not the case here?
[Have you been dating mystery person for a while, Kurumi?]
<DiggingThatTrack>
it's just i don't know. it'd be weird if a guy asked a girl to a spa for a date, right?
and yes, it's the first date. that's why it's awkward.
<NineHeaded>
first date? beyond weird and awkward for a guy to ask a girl to go to a spa with him.
borderline inappropriate, honestly. i'd be questioning his motives.
but if they've been dating for a while and his girlfriend likes going to the spa, that's not weird. that's just being a decent boyfriend.
<DiggingThatTrack>
they're not a guy and i know it'd be inappropriate if they were a guy but they're not and it's confusing the hell out of me.
[Because. Girls go to the spa together. It's a thing that they do.]
<NineHeaded>
[Oh boy. Uhh...]
if it's a girl, why didn't you just say that from the start? why'd you ask about a guy doing it at all?
it's not as weird if two girls do something like that. going to a spa is just something they do even as friends, right?
but i'm really not sure if i'm the right person to go to for advice about this.
<DiggingThatTrack>
and i'm not really thinking it's weird just. is it even a date if it's something we could do as friends normally?
sorry, kuzuryuu. i'm just really confused myself.
<NineHeaded>
like i said earlier though, a date's just two people with feelings for each other doing something they like together.
and if you were already friends before, chances are there's gonna be a lot of overlap between dates and shit you'd do as friends.
so if she thinks it's a date and you think it's a date, then it's a date.
<DiggingThatTrack>
<NineHeaded>
but yeah, that's my point. anything can be a date. because it's the other person that matters most, am i right?
where you are or what you're doing comes second.
that's what i think, anyway. maybe i'm way off though.
<DiggingThatTrack>
it sounds about right. is it that obvious that i haven't done this sort of thing either?
[Last time she tried, the apocalypse happened.]
<NineHeaded>
painfully so. but i dunno that i'd say that's a bad thing.
it's something you gotta learn to do as you go.
<DiggingThatTrack>
well yeah i guess. wish you could just learn it quickly though
<NineHeaded>
and two heads: better than one, and all that crap.
you'll get the hang of it.
<DiggingThatTrack>
<NineHeaded>
that
i'm not sure what to say to that.
<DiggingThatTrack>
<NineHeaded>
i think it's one of thosethings where if she wants to talk to you about it, she will.
but asking about it yourself might come off badly, you know what i mean?
<DiggingThatTrack>
<NineHeaded>
anywat, more than anything, i think you need to chill the fuck out.
just act natural about it.
easier said than done, i know, if you overthink the little things you're just gonna stress yourself out and fuck up.
because when you get right down to it, the "right" way to do this shit is different for everybody.
loving each other and treating each other right are really the only "standards" that can apply to everyone.
when it comes to everything beyond that it's just whatever. because what works for one couple might not for anotrher.
i mean, shit, tanaka and his girlfriend had seance dates.
they literally stayed overnight in our dojo specifically BECAUSE it's haunted as fuck and they wanted to talk to the spirits or something.
that's what works for them/ though.
you just gotta figure out what works for you and your girl. which is something only the two of you can do.
got it?
<DiggingThatTrack>
ugh. this is really hard, you know?
i know i have to, though...
<NineHeaded>
when you get right down to it, this stuff really isn't as hard as people make it out to be.
you're your own worst enemy, as they say.
[Or maybe it just seems easy to him because he doesn't really care all that much about romance.]
[...]
[Or maybe he's just all talk because he doesn't want to sound like a virgin.]
<DiggingThatTrack>
it'll get easier.]
[...Except we all know he is.]
<NineHeaded>
exactly.
