Joke Thirty Three: Totally the best plan

[crazyclownwoman]

Ugh, well I don’t think I’m ever drinking milk again after that. Man this place sucks.

[Action: Harley has the best plan ever. It cannot fail.

A. Does Harley know you? AT ALL? Any form of contact from a hello to long conversations to a, why the hell are you dressed like a clown? She is knocking on your door. ESPECIALLY YOU EDWARD! Though not

[Kotomi peeks out, tentatively.]

Hello...?

[crazyclownwoman]

Hi!

[heart_x_strings]

[Oh, she recognizes that voice now! Perfect memory, go!]

Harley-san...?

[crazyclownwoman]

Yup! That's me! I was wonderin' if I could ask you a few questions? I'm doin' a survey!

[heart_x_strings]

[She opens the door a little wider now.]

U-Um, sure...go ahead.

[crazyclownwoman]

Okay.

[Flipping through her papers.]

How can you tell if someone likes you?

[heart_x_strings]

[!]

I-In what manner? Friendship, romantic...?

[crazyclownwoman]

The last one!

[heart_x_strings]

[EEEEEK. Time to go the science route!]

Uhm, well..there's typically an increase in heart-rate, and a release of hormones, adrenaline, and pheromones...

[crazyclownwoman]

.....what's that like?

[heart_x_strings]

Uhm...well, your heart...beats faster, and um...you find yourself constantly thinking about the person, getting butterflies in your stomach...kind of obsessive, almost mad in a way...[She gulps.]...stammering speech, sweating, blushing....

[Oh God, she is so nervous now.]

[crazyclownwoman]

Oh....

[Thinking over this information.]

[heart_x_strings]

W-was that not what you intended to hear, Harley-san...?

[crazyclownwoman]

No. I'm just tryn' ta figure it all out.

It made sense last time. ...but then I kind of went insane last time too so I don't know.

in which I learn more while playing Kotomi than I ever have in classes orz

[heart_x_strings]

That's not terribly surprising. For love to make one "insane" if you will. The hormones released into the brain during "love" are identical to the ones found in excess in the brains of those with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.

[crazyclownwoman]

Really?

Wonder why they never mentioned that in class.

Well I ended up a criminal out of it. So that was fun.

[Only not.]
