[Raven is just trying to find something less worryingly respectable-looking than the suits in his closet. How can he look like an idiot if he's dressed in a nice suit all the time?
But his "bad shit is about to go down" senses (note: he does not actually have such senses, do not believe him if he tells you he does) are tingling now.]
Hey, darlin', want to pick one out for me?
[He's not really a bow-tie sort of guy, but if it will redirect her anger from the innocent drone onto him...]
[Her shoulders tense, she turns very quickly at the sound of the voice, her expression still twisted in one of polite annoyance. Once she seems to recognize that he is not a drone, though, she gratefully takes the distraction.]
Ah, I- [...Stare.] This? [She shakes the bow tie a little.] You... really want one of these? [She looks at him incredulously. There is not just one, but two men who enjoy wearing these? Really? Really? Well, at least the Doctor isn't alone... Or something...]
[He takes a moment to actually examine the thing she's looking at.]
Uh...yeah.
[It is kind of transparently obvious he has very little clue what he's talking about. He probably wouldn't know how to wear the bow tie in the first place. But hey, he's in this for the long haul now! Besides, it looks like a good way to make these damn suits look silly.]
This place took my powers of sexual appeal away. Gotta get 'em back somehow, right?
[You... are assuming that a bow tie will make you attractive to women.
...Never mind that somehow it worked on her with the Doctor, we're not talking about that. Vietnam tries to look polite and blank, but instead there is a trace of a scowl on her face. She is embarrassed for this poor, misguided man.] I do not think that this is the solution you are looking for.

What did he just say.]

Back home, old Raven here made all the ladies swoon. Somehow it just ain't workin' here, though. Maybe one of those things'd bring it all back!
