Anyway STARING AT THE TWO and humming in consideration... After a few seconds:]
Comedy sounds better but I'll leave it to you since you're the expert and all.
[Vietnam: K-drama expert. She sure has reached great heights.]
no subject
We will go with comedy then. They are both good for their own reasons. So we will go with what you prefer!
[She totally is. Sort of. Look Taiwan, Korea and Hong Kong started this mess, she just went along with it. And she plugs this one in cos why the hell not.]
no subject
Sounds like a better choice. This holiday's supposed to be super cute and lighthearted and stuff, right?
[Watching intently as the first episode starts playing! WHAT A CLASSIC, INDEED.]
no subject
Yes, you're right! Perhaps you're better at this than I am.
[No seriously he probably is. BUT YES LOOK, sassy lead, hot dudes all around. Clearly a Kashuu thing.]
no subject
You've been celebrating for a long time though, yeah?
[Age before beauty or something....... BUT Kashuu's question sort of trails off at the end, since it's easy to hook his attention. Not even ten minutes in and he's totally absorbed by the episode. Help him...]
no subject
Well, not myself. For me, it is a modern holiday that I only learned about when one of my guardians introduced the concept. And the rest of the world was picking up on it. It is why it became hugely popular in Japan too.
[And then he ended up with new customs of his own. Also she's explaining, but is he paying attention. HMMMM.]
no subject
It seems he's at least partially paying attention, though... The sliver of attention he's dedicating to Vietnam is getting smaller the longer the show runs, but it's still there!]
It'd be nice if we could leave the base more and celebrate stuff like this. Japan's adopted some good holidays!
no subject
Don't worry, she's wandering down that path now too...]
Japan is very enthusiastic about the creativity of his holidays. You are very lucky. Perhaps you should find someone to go on a date with for Valentine's Day.
no subject
Right? I wanna celebrate it when we go back home, too. [Because based on what he knows of Japan in the future, it'll probably be 10x cuter than anything Cerealia would have to offer...
BUT OH, that sure is enough to temporarily distract him from the drama. He glances over, curious.]
You think? Is that an important part of celebrating?
no subject
Oh! I hope you would be able to experience it back home then. I remember it being much busier. [AND YES fighting girls everywhere.
She looks towards him, and then crosses her arms to think.]
It is part of the experience, so some will say it is very important. Showing appreciation to family and friends is just another part of it, but it is more famous nowadays for romance.
no subject
[OF COURSE!! What a loser. He's so excited about celebrating this stupid thing, and he'll still be excited about it even when they get back home...]
So it's like, a two-part holiday kinda? [A pause; he seems to be considering this New Information.] ...I've never asked anyone out on a date before. Is it easy?
no subject
[CUTE......he's a cute loser, she wants him to have the best date ever now.]
It can be a two-part holiday, yes. Depending on how you want to celebrate it. I'm...probably the worst person to ask about dates. I've never really asked anyone either. Some find it difficult, some easy. I think it should be easy for you. You are confident and well-liked.
no subject
But he pretty much beams at that compliment. HECK YEAH confident and well-liked, exactly what he aims for!!]
You're pretty well-liked too, y'know? You just gotta be more confident and I'm sure you could get all the dates you wanted!
[Like a new date a day or something!!]
no subject
SHE'S HONEST ABOUT THIS TOO.]
N-no, many find me intimidating! And I have no idea what to do on dates.
[Which is why she can't even give him that much advice other than let's watch lots of dramas and be honest about Feels.]
no subject
Intimidating? [?!??!? Hi Vietnam, he's invading your personal bubble a little now, leaning in close to get a good look at her face like he's trying to see just what in it is so intimidating...]
...But you're cute and you're nice! Who thinks you're intimidating? [HE'LL GO PUNCH EM.] And if you don't know what to do on dates, that's an easy problem to fix. They make a tooon of magazines for just that, yeah?
no subject
Intimid...ating... [She's leaning back just a little because Kashuu??? What are you doing?!]
C-cute and nice? Kashuu, you speak too highly of me. I try my hardest to be accommodating. [DON'T KILL ANYONE she says this like she wouldn't punch others for talking shit about her sword frands. Also way to make her more embarrassed.] But, how to say...I don't shine, like you do. [He'd have dates lining up the streets, yo.] And ah...I do rely on those just to help others with their own dating situations too. But I am fine, really. It is not like it is something I must do.
no subject
He's looking for the intimidation factors!! STAY STILL, GOSH-- No okay, he won't invade her space much more than he already has.]
Huuuh? What's up with that? Don't talk yourself down so much! [He reaches forward - so much for no further invasions of personal bubbles - and prods her shoulder once.] Of course you're not gonna shine if you say stuff like that! Be more confident! [It's the ticket to success!! And if someone doesn't have confidence they can totally just fake it, okay.]
D'you want to do it, though?
no subject
So he's already way too close huh. SHIFTING--oh he poked her shoulder, ah.]
I...I do wish to be more confident, but I am unsure how. [LOOK, THESE THINGS ARE HARD OKAY, she's so self-critical she doesn't even know where to start. She's probably faking "confidence" half the time because she's just naturally stubborn.] I don't see what I can really bring?
And I suppose it is also because I am just fine as I am. I'm not looking for more.
no subject
You just gotta think about all the stuff you're good at, or what you like about yourself.[He gives her a look the like you do have those things, right??] If you know what to be proud of, you can be confident no problem.
[But if she's fine as she is, then she might not have to try so hard?! But she just said she wanted to be more confident, too... VIETNAM HE'S GETTING MIXED SIGNALS.]
no subject
Why is he giving her such an intense look!?!??!] Cooking and sewing? I can make a lot of things. [Great hands.] Is that what you mean?
[SHE'S A HUMBLE COUNTRY, BUT SHE WANTS TO BE COOL TOO OKAY it's hard...]
no subject
Yeah! Complimenting yourself can go a long way, y'know? So, like, you're good at making stuff, and you're super nice and considerate... You also totally have nice, soft-looking hair, and your eyes are a really pretty color! You're a cute height too, and your face fits you perfectly. See? Stuff like that.
[Is he being enough of an embarrassment yet??]
no subject
No really she can't say anything right now as she just gapes at him.]
no subject
...You okay?
no subject
She blinks when he does wave at her. Maybe she is coming back!]
I...I'm fine. [Mostly.]
no subject
Good! Anywaaay, like I said, you have all these super cute qualities. All you gotta do is acknowledge them, so - tell me one thing you like about yourself. I can start, if you want!
[oops, there he goes again...]
