WHO: John, Dave, and absolutely anyone who would like to join in :D
WHERE: In an indoor mall... some indoor mall in the City!
WHEN: Nowish, so Monday afternoon
WARNINGS: Preteen boy awkwardness
SUMMARY: John and Dave try to pick up chicks... yep.
FORMAT: Anything works, starting with brackets. :)

[ John sits on a bench outside one of the shops, kicking his legs back and forth, kind of happy that after half a year of being wasted time in the City his feet at least now scrape the floor when he does things like this. He's glancing around at the crowd nervously, wondering what he's actually doing here in the first place, and looking over at Dave every so often as though expecting some kind of cue. ]

Well, he's never been on a proper date before, and you look really nice, and I figure maybe you wouldn't mind showing him the ropes of how to date, because he really is clueless when it comes to girls!

[ Holy run-on sentences, Batman! Does this kid stop to breathe? ]

[futurebatwoman]

[There's this looong pause. She almost wants to say yes, but.]

Okay, how old are you guys?

[ Muttering something under his breath. Hahaha... ha... Yeah, high pitched voice, hasn't even hit 5'3"... this kid can't be older than fourteen at most (thirteen in reality.) ]

[futurebatwoman]

[She grins and shakes her head. This is adorable.]

It's a schway mission, dude, but it might actually be illegal for me to take him on a date.

I can try to impart advice, if you want, but I'm not sure how great at that I am.

I don't think it's illegal! I mean, not for a date, it might be illegal to marry him or something, but I don't think that's going to happen.

[ Shifts back and forth from one foot to the next. ]

I'm not sure advice is going to help a lot right now.

[futurebatwoman]

... [Man she can be such a sucker sometimes.]

You know what, I'll do it. I will take your friend on a not-a-date date. So long as I choose the movie, or where we go.

[ Beaming up at her! YESSSSS ]

Definitely!! And I will make sure Dave pays for you too!

[futurebatwoman]

Such a gentleman. [Smiling. She just wants to like - pat him on the head or something, he is so cute.]

Okay, um, here's my comm number - [scribbling it down and handing it to him] - he can just give me a ring if he wants.

[ Taking at it and looking down nodding. ] Will do-- Wait! I didn't catch your name.

[futurebatwoman]

I'm Max. Maxine Gibson.

I don't think I got your name either.

John Egbert. It's nice to meet you, Max. [ Holding his hand out for a handshake. ]

[futurebatwoman]

[Solemn handshake.]

It's nice to meet you too.

I will make sure Dave gives you a call or text soonish, okay!
