187th Day [video]

[mirroredmemory]

[Xion's in pyjamas, she's got a little Winner cat on her lap and she looks in considerably better shape than the last time she appeared on the network. She seems to have a large pile of teen girl magazines beside her with garish pink covers and titles proclaiming all sorts of mystical teenage girl subjects that she's just learning about, but that

You should do whatever you feel is right for you. Dating is something you should enjoy so you should do whatever it is that you and your date like. Some of those magazines tell you not to go to the movies, but if you're both movie buffs and will enjoy the time together then you should go. Some of the best dates I've have had simply been going for coffee and talking. [he smiles a bit] I hope that helps.

And... I'm not really sure about where girls can get make overs in this city, but it also really depends on who you are going on a date with and what you two plan on doing. If you have some girlfriends you can trust they can try to do your hair and makeup for you, otherwise you might be able to find a salon to help you out.

[She takes in all this advice with wide eyes]

Oh it helps a lot, thank you! I never even heard about dating until I got here so really any advice is great. For when I go on a date. Someday. I've never been to the movies before, what are they like?

And I've never had a makeover before, what happens? There are pictures in here and they look kind of scary.

[Holds up one of the magazines and there is an absolutely terrifying looking device that seems to be a torture implement of some sort.]

[mediumdrip]

It depends on the genre of the movie, really. Some can make you laugh, while others are made to scare you. [pause] You've honestly never seen one before? I can think of a few suggestions if you'd like to start watching them.

Make overs are mostly just about putting on make up and changing your hair, though sometimes they can mean a change of clothes too. [He brings his NV to his face so he can get a better look at the picture]

That thing is supposed to curl your eyelashes, I think.

[mirroredmemory]

Well I've seen movies on TV, but I didn't think you could go to them. But what are the movies you were going to suggest? Do you have a favourite?

[She takes the picture back to look at it more carefully and seems to be considering the mechanics of curling eyelashes.]

Why would anyone want to do that to their eyelashes? Wouldn't it look funny? And if you have a make over for a date... are there any special clothes you should wear? Like... if I was going to go on a date with someone and he liked green, should I wear something green?

[madeinoblivion]

What do you need to know about dates for, Xion?

...and you don't need any makeover. You look fine.

[Voice]

[mirroredmemory]

Thanks Joe.

[But, um. Eep.]

Um, I'm just interested. That's all. I mean, you know, if someone was going to take me on a date then I'd want to know how to do it properly so that I didn't mess up and look stupid.

Re: [Voice]

[madeinoblivion]

You wouldn't look stupid. A girl's part on a date is really easy. If the boy is nice, you don't even need to worry about paying for it.

And you'd never go on a date with a boy that wasn't nice, or I'd beat him up.

[Voice]

[mirroredmemory]

But why should he pay for everything? That's not really fair, is it?

You would not, not if I liked him.

[showbizpanache]

You talk to Kurt Hummel.

About the makeover part, at least.

[mirroredmemory]

[You get a little laugh for that Kurt.]

I should have known you'd know what to do for that, Kurt. How are you?

[showbizpanache]

Much better, thank you. Yourself?

[mirroredmemory]

I'm feeling better too, I'm glad you are as well.

So... what do you do with a makeover anyway?

[pullsheavendown]

[GBFF, what even.]

Why do you want to know, Xion?

[mirroredmemory]

[Double eep.]

I just do. It might come in handy some day.

[Like... say... Friday at seven.]

[pullsheavendown]

I guess...but Xion, you don't have to know how to do stuff just because a magazine talks about it.

[mirroredmemory]

I know, but... well it kind of sounds like it could be fun. And you know, people come into Kahve all the time and like to talk about stuff. What if someone comes in and wants to ask my advice about dating? I'd look pretty silly if I couldn't answer.

[lockandkeyblade]

Why do you ask, Xion? You got something planned with a special somebody?

[He's mostly joking of course. Xion tends to get interested in all sorts of things. He wouldn't be surprised if this was just something she heard over the network and wanted to know more about.]

[Video]

[mirroredmemory]

[Sora you have just made her go bright red. Gosh darn it, keeping this secret is so not easy!]

Um- I guess I just- um. You know. I want to know. Why, do you think I've got a date?

[Video]

[lockandkeyblade]

Just kidding.

Just wondering what's got you thinking about all this stuff lately is all.

[Video]

[mirroredmemory]

[Does she look relieved? No. No of course not. You're imagining it. Shut up.]

I was just thinking about it, that's all. And then I realised that I don't know anything about it, really, and I thought that maybe I should in case I do go on a date on Fr- someday.
