27th Joke - Laughable Politics [Event | Level 5]

[[He tried really, really, really hard to avoid that phone.

Too bad it wasn't hard enough.

Another call for the good folks in Mayfield.]]

[Phone | Everyone}

[[He's talking softly as if trying to keep people not on the phone from hearing. Because it matters at this point, obviously.]]

I've only been here since November but I have had a crush on too many girls to count.

Everyone one of them, I think, isn't really interested in me.

Or has a boyfriend.

Or thinks I am a dork.

Some seem to like me better when Mayfield changes me into something I'm not.

I really haven't dated back home, so I don't think I'd be any good at it anyways.

Also, I am a communist. I mean, it's the best system in a perfect world right? Why wouldn't Mayfield be a communist place if they are trying to fake being perfect on the outside?

You never know until you try.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Wait.. what? I mean... I guess not but...

[myougi.livejournal.com]

Speaking as somebody who had no shortage of dates back home, you're prob'ly underestimating yourself. A lot of girls are happy knowing that a guy wants to pay attention to her, yanno? Even if it's not serious serious.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Uhh.... I guess so.

I don't know. It's not something I really thought I'd ever be dealing with again.

[myougi.livejournal.com]

... What, talking to girls?

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Dating.

[myougi.livejournal.com]

... What? Why not?

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Lot's of bad things back home. I just didn't let anyone get close to me and didn't try to date.

It was safer that way.

[myougi.livejournal.com]

Hate to break it to you, but this isn't exactly a safe environment for dating either... that said, it probably won't hurt to give it a shot, either.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

True but if it went horribly wrong it wouldn't be because I exist here.

Maybe, I'm starting to think it might be too much stress I don't actually need. It's not like I'll be able to when, if, I leave here anyways.

[myougi.livejournal.com]

... What, do you attract bad luck that much? Or is somebody after your life back home? That sort of thing? [ he's met too many people like that here in Mayfield, okay :T ]

Dating shouldn't be that stressful, anyway.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

I don't know, I never got a chance to figure it out.

[[Not sure he would have even if he had time.]]

Yeah, so maybe it's a good idea to not worry about it.

[myougi.livejournal.com]

Well... here's all the advice I can give to you. If there's somebody you're really serious about, then you should go for it. If not, then it's prob'ly not worth it.

Sooo, is there any lucky lady in particular that might fall into that first category?

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

At the moment? Actually, no.

I kind of had hopes but then I realized that I should have looked into it more.

[myougi.livejournal.com]

Then why worry about it at all?

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

I don't know. I guess having the opportunity to try got to me.

[myougi.livejournal.com]

Guess that makes sense. You are a teenager, after all.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Wait, what does that have to do with it?

[myougi.livejournal.com]

That's the sort of thing teenagers normally think about, isn't it? Dating and whatnot.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Oh, yeah, I guess so.
