I'm sorry to intrude abruptly, but I was hoping you could give me a bit of advice.

	What about, friend? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Well ... ladies. Especially Japanese ones. I'm woefully ignorant of how Eastern ladies behave today, as opposed to two hundred years ago. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	They're bolder. They know what they want more. They're still ladies - all women are - but wait do you have your eye on one? Tell me about her! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

A young Japanese lady came into the store, and we got to talking. She asked me for coffee, and we had rather an enjoyable time. At the end of it, when we got up to leave, she gave me her telephone number. I've no idea when it's appropriate to telephone, or what's appropriate to do with a lady nowadays, especially when we're mere acquaintances.

Her name was Ikuko. Short, well dressed if a bit strange, with blue dyed hair.

	What? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She's wonderfully smart, isn't she? Tell me about her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	defectedfromgod 2010-12-17 08:19 pm UTC (link)
	How do you know her? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oceanangel 2010-12-17 08:20 pm UTC (link)
	I don't know her as well as I'd like to. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Uzza, I'm sorry, you're not making sense. I don't want to intrude on anyone's relationship. It'd make me the worst sort of cad. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's not what you think, Ariel. What are her abilities like? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	defectedfromgod 2010-12-17 09:04 pm UTC (link)
	Abilities? She can do ... something ... to make herself ... gaseous? I don't know. She dropped change on the floor and reached through the desk to get it. She's also rather talented in palmistry. I usually consider that a load of bunk, but she made it convincing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oceanangel 2010-12-17 09:06 pm UTC (link)
	So she's a bit like her sister. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	defectedfromgod 2010-12-17 09:20 pm UTC (link)
	Sister? Uzza, how do you know her? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oceanangel 2010-12-17 09:21 pm UTC (link)
	She's my daughter. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	defectedfromgod 2010-12-17 09:40 pm UTC (link)
	... Oh! That is entirely different, of course. I'm sorry, I just wanted to be absolutely clear on what was what. I did enjoy her company very much, and given that I've seen men killed in duels, I wanted to avoid them. Is there anything else you might like to know? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oceanangel 2010-12-17 10:08 pm UTC (link)
	Anything you might wish to share. And I'd like it very much if you were to court her, you know. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	defectedfromgod 2010-12-17 11:06 pm UTC (link)
	Well, let's not go that far. I would like to see her again, and I'm wondering when it would be appropriate to telephone her, or where it might be appropriate to go. You know I've no experience whatsoever with such things. My wife and I were in love when we were children. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oceanangel 2010-12-17 11:10 pm UTC (link)
	Phone her today. She's likely looking forward to it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	defectedfromgod 2010-12-17 11:21 pm UTC (link)
	Today? That's not too sudden? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oceanangel 2010-12-17 11:42 pm UTC (link)
	You're not proposing marriage, Ariel. You're asking if she'd like to get lunch. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	defectedfromgod 2010-12-18 12:05 am UTC (link)
	That's true, I suppose. Courtships change from time to time, though. And I have enough of a brain to know that films are not an accurate guide on how to talk to ladies. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oceanangel 2010-12-18 12:06 am UTC (link)
	Well, yes. They're incredibly inaccurate. (Reply to this) (Parent)
