| Okay | Um |

| Normally I would Disapprove of This Sort of Advice-Asking in a Public Sphere | But Honestly | I Suspect I Rather Need an Outside Opinion on This Matter |

| Given that My Usual Sources of Advice have all been Very Unhelpful | Except in Putting Forth Unhelpfully Salacious Comments |

| Ahem | Alright | Um |

| How do You Tell if Someone Likes You | In a Quadrant Sort of Way | Or in a Dating Sort of Way | ? |

| And | Is There Really a Discernible Difference | | | ? |

| I Already have Received My Store of Inadvisably Inappropriate Advice for This Tonight | That's Why | =:| |

[fleetnpcs]

[|| That's simple. ||]
[|| If they wanted you as a quadrant. ||]
[|| Then they wouldn't bother with dating. ||]
[|| They'd state it outright. ||]

[platoniccrusader]

What? N0. That's n0t the usual s0rt 0f res60nse, in my ex6erience.

[fleetnpcs]

[|| Hm. ||]
[|| Really? ||]
[|| WV was very upfront with their proposition. ||]

[platoniccrusader]

... what?

[fleetnpcs]

[|| Oh. ||]
[|| Did I forget to tell you? ||]
[|| Can't imagine how that happened. ||]
[|| WV suggested a matespritship. ||]

[obstructedantiquity]

wAIT, WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAn?

[fleetnpcs]

[|| I don't know. ||]
[|| Why don't you reread it and tell me. ||]
[|| My statement was perfectly clear, Riccin. ||]

[refiningspacetime]

| Oh | ! | See | That's what I thought | I'm Glad to See I was Validated | =:B |

| At Our Age | I would Think that Anyone Out Seeking a Commitment | Rather than Entertainment | would be Upfront About It | If They Did not have Their Affairs Already In Order |

| But I've been Told That's a rather Foolish Way of Viewing It | =:/ |

[sez the fishing recluse who only leaves his boat for conventions :| :| :|]

[fleetnpcs]

[|| That's because you asked lowbloods. ||]
[|| Bluebloods don't dance around important issues. ||]
[|| Or waste our time on frivolities. ||]

[|| What hue is your date. ||]

[refiningspacetime]

| | Hm |

| That's | Interesting | And I Suppose That's True Enough | From My Experience |

| Jade | Does that Count as a Lowblood | ? |

[fleetnpcs]

[|| Jade? ||]
[|| Hm. ||]
[|| You could do better than that. ||]

[|| It depends. ||]
[|| Are they a high jade or low. ||]

[obstructedantiquity]

wAIT, WAIT, HOLD It.

yOU'RE DATING A FUCKING JADE? SINCE WHEn?

[activatingaggro]

like hell they do. you icebloods arne, like, all abt frnivolities, dude. half you fuckerns don't even wornk, wtf do you count all that frnee time shit as?

[fleetnpcs]

[|| Of course we work. ||]
[|| Just because we don't degrade ourselves with menial labor. ||]
[|| And we are generally wise enough to pursue the work that we enjoy. ||]
[|| Hardly can be considered a failing on our part. ||]

[platoniccrusader]

0h! Well, isn't this intri9uin9? D0 y0u have a suit0r, RS? :)

[refiningspacetime]

| Haha | Let's Hope Not |

| I'm just Dating Someone | Or | Well | Dating is a Rather Formal Term for It | Isn't It | ? | We've been on a Date | And | We are Going to Head Onto a Second Date In | Mm |

| Six Hours | ? |

[platoniccrusader]

Hm. Are they unsuita9le f0r a qua9rant, then?

[platoniccrusader]

Sh0uldn't y0u 6e aslee6?

[refiningspacetime]

| Oh | ! | No | No no no |

| Don't Get Me Wrong | They're a very Remarkable Person | Very high-minded | Educated | Smart | They can Cook all Sorts of Things | Which is actually Rather Amazing if You Think About It | ? |

| There's nothing Wrong with Them in the Slightest | Obviously | or else There wouldn't have been a First Date | Haha | =:B |

| And | Why would I be Asleep | ? |

[fleetnpcs]

[refiningspacetime]
