Who: Apartment O + you? door is open
When: Day 32, evening
Where: Apartment O
What: family dinner...?

[There is a stew bubbling happily over the fire; leaf "platters" and shish-kebabs(? something-chunks on sticks), salad, a somewhat overcooked stirfry, and a gourd filled with fruit chunks in milky liquid are arranged on the kitchen counter.]

Okay, guys, get it while it's hot!

It'd be a nice change of pace, and totally safer than outside.

Surely there's a more productive change of pace available other than a boyfriend...

The point isn't to be productive--I mean, it could be, though I hadn't seen you as so businesslike about romance. To each her own, I guess...

Looking for one just seems like an unnecessary distraction, I suppose...

You could start a rivalry? But I thought that might get a little too crazy for you.

No, I can't say I'm terribly interested in starting rivalries.

See? That's why the best solution is to have two guys fighting for your honor.

Must there be fighting? That doesn't seem like a very sensible way to go about things.

They could have a series of formal debates?

That's. Slightly more sensible, I suppose.

If they're struggling for your favor, you can set the rules! No blows to kill, no haircuts, etc.

How about I simply pick one and the other agrees to go away?

I guess... Seems kind of anti-climactic, though.

It's sensible.

Like I said.

What if you can't decide?

Then I'd ask them to leave me alone so I could have time to decide, or perhaps tell them to pursue other women if I couldn't... Anyway, it isn't as if any of this will ever be relevant.

Why not? You're plenty cute and sweet and sensible, even! I'd think you'd have guys knocking down your door if Ashikawa weren't scaring them away.

That's just ridiculous... And even in the extremely hypothetical case where it wasn't, they'd have to contend to with Crown too.

Yeah, but Ashikawa's probably a bigger threat. And it's totally not ridiculous! You are positively charming!

[fluster fluster]

Don't be silly, you're far more charming than I could ever be.

I'm a lot of things, but charming isn't one of them. But you're the real deal! You should work it!

Of all the ridiculous things you've said so far this may well be the most ridiculous.

Don't be silly, this is hardly in the top three. I'm gonna prove it!

Prove what?

That you are attractive to dudes who like chicks!
