*** Aether has joined 018.07.154.55 <Aether> Hello. You have reached Lusamine Mendel. <Aether> Please leave a message, and I will get back to you shortly.
[Now that their thoughts are back to being private, Beat will hit Lusamine up with some questions. And lookit this. Just for her? He's typing properly. Well, mostly.]
Mom I need dating advice. I wanna take Josh out on a date, an actual date, but I don't
[Lusamine notices, and it warms her heart almost as much as it does to see Mom written out, clear and permanent.]
Hello, Beat. I am so glad you messaged me. This is truly exciting news!
Rest assured, there is no one correct way to go about dating. You know Joshua quite well, don't you? How you go about it depends entirely on what you think he will enjoy. Have you given thought to how you might ask him?
Is that right? How wonderful! I am truly happy for you both.
Perhaps then it would be perfectly agreeable for you to simply "go up and ask". He may even be expecting you to do so. Whatever are you so worried about?
[Lusamine smiles to herself. Briefly (regrettably), she finds herself wondering if Mohn had perseverated so much over details like this. Doubtless he had until he learned that, when it was him, she hardly cared.]
I see. I have to wonder if quite so much work is truly necessary. Rest assured, if Joshua's love for you is true, you can do no wrong. The moment is sure to be special regardless.
That being said, I can certainly recommend a few fancy places for you. When I wrote to you during Nattensfest, I told you that I would be glad to help you pick out an outfit to go with your watch as well, did I not? Perhaps it is finally time that I follow through on that offer.
[The fact that Josh should love it regardless goes a long way to settling nerves. They did have their Christmas uh... dinner date and that was awkward but Josh seemed to have enjoyed it? Maybe official date number two can be more casual but this is official date #1 which means Beat wants to try. To show he can!]
Wouldchu!? Oh yo, that'd be great! I didn't wanna bother you about it with everything going on! Hold up, I'll be over in a bit. Ima take a shower first!
[And true to his word, within an hour or so, he'll have as Lusamine's apartment, knocking on the door and vigorously combing his tail fur, trying to get it to dry out faster. His hair is still a little plastered to him too... At least he's fresh??]

Date: 2022-03-24 09:27 pm (UTC)I was just gonna go up and ask if he wanted to go out for a date...
Do I gotta do something else too?!
[See this is why he came to you.]
<Aether>
Date: 2022-03-24 09:52 pm (UTC)No, not necessarily. However, if he is unaware of your intentions, it won't do to spring this on him too suddenly. Have you told him yet?
<soundsurfer>
Date: 2022-03-24 10:20 pm (UTC)[Geez he sounds 12....]
I mean, love.
[He's flustered now.]

Take him somewhere fancy with fancy clothes and stuff but uhm
I don't know anywhere fancy like that and I don't have any fancy clothes except for your watch and should I bring him flowers or chocolate??
