[Friends*, but not Credence]

I have a question.

If you like someone, what do you do? I know tell them, but I am not sure what activities would be appropriate to suggest. He is athletic. He was part of the Assassin Game, but I don't think he is an assassin. I have looked up what that was, so I don't think so. I cannot find books on dating, though. Most of you have dated, though. I thought you might have good ideas.

	~~I'm probably not the best at~~How often do you talk to this person? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	elgran 2018-03-03 05:24 pm UTC (link)
	Quite often recently. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	~~What?~~ There's plenty of athletic things to do on the ship if you want to indulge his interests. You could always go up to Deck 13? I imagine [...] shuffleboard might be [...] fun? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	elgran 2018-03-03 05:25 pm UTC (link)
	Oh yes. There is a climbing wall. Hm. I have never tried shuffleboard, but if he likes it, it might be nice to learn. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Helena's been begging to go to the climbing wall. I should probably indulge that soon. But I haven't tried shuffleboard either. I gather you [...] shuffle a ball [...] on a board? We could try and find a film that would be helpful about dating. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	elgran 2018-03-04 12:04 am UTC (link)
	Credence and I can take her. I am not sure. I guess it can’t hurt to ask someone the rules. People like to learn things from people they like, I think. Do they have films for that?? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I don't mind taking her. I just haven't yet. And you and Credence should focus on making time for your new friends. That's a solid point. Baseball is also an option? I feel as though baseball would be a little more interesting than shuffleboarding but that's basing this assessment entirely off of the name and my knowledge of baseball.

It's an entire genre. But that doesn't mean most of them have good advice.

	Oh. I have not tried it yet. I have leaned over to look at the sea animals, however. Hm. I will remember that. It’s possible it will be a good idea. Oh yes. I know he likes the movies about Middle Earth. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	liesbecomeus 2018-03-04 01:03 am UTC (link)
	Oh? Why didn't you invite him to watch when Credence had his friend over? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	elgran 2018-03-04 01:38 am UTC (link)
	Oh. This is not for me. I guess I was not clear. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[...] You're asking for someone else? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	elgran 2018-03-04 01:46 am UTC (link)
	Well, yes. I had thought it might be less strange to let them them know I had noticed if I had something to tell them so they might be able to ask someone on a date since they seem to be flustered and nervous around them and they haven’t yet asked to my knowledge.

	[...] I'm sure your friend will appreciate the thoughtfulness you've put into this, Luna. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	elgran 2018-03-04 05:33 am UTC (link)
	I suppose now I will not need to ask should I become interested in someone, but I cannot say that I will. Only I am not sure what it feels like, so maybe I would not know. I’m not sure. I do not feel different and I have not acted different from my usual. I would have noticed. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Dinner is pretty formal, but you could ask him to dinner? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	elgran 2018-03-04 12:05 am UTC (link)
	Hm. I will add it to the list. How do you make sure they know it is a date and not just being friends? I guess you could always just say it, though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	unprepared 2018-03-04 01:25 am UTC (link)
	You could say it, yeah! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	elgran 2018-03-04 01:39 am UTC (link)
	I will tell them! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	unprepared 2018-03-04 02:21 am UTC (link)
	Then you're set. I think. I mean, you're brave. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	elgran 2018-03-04 05:35 am UTC (link)
	I might be, but not everyone is. I think I have not thought that people would assume I was asking for myself. It is my own fault for not being clear. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	unprepared 2018-03-04 05:38 am UTC (link)
	Wait, you're not asking for yourself? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	elgran 2018-03-04 06:07 am UTC (link)
	No. I am asking for a friend. I had hoped to have something to pass onto them. I do not know what it feels like to like someone, so perhaps I would not realise if I did, but I do not think I like someone and no one has said they liked me. I don't mind. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	unprepared 2018-03-04 06:10 am UTC (link)
	It's no big deal to not like anyone. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	elgran 2018-03-04 06:22 am UTC (link)
	I am glad it is not, but I think I would still not be very upset if it was. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	unprepared 2018-03-04 06:53 am UTC (link)
	Nah, you probably wouldn't. You're pretty chill. (Reply to this) (Parent)
