This is probably going to sound really weird but I have a question about girls. I've never thought about it before back home since there were more important things going on, but|

_{[Gods, okay. Just relax - it's just a simple question, right? What could go wrong?]}

What sort of things do they like? I mean, what do they find cute? I've thought about clothes but I don't know|

I don't know the sizes or anything so I was even thinking about a Pokemon but I think the ones that I'd find cute might scare or not be cute to some girls. I could probably take some ideas from TV or books or something too, though sometimes those can be a little

too dramatic

Did you ever just... ask her what she likes?

I want to surprise her with something. If I asked her all of that, it might not be one.

_{[AKA He will crack under pressure.]}

You can still surprise her. If you just get a general idea of things she likes? Like a "get to know you" kind of thing.

It wouldn't feel like one. And if it's clothes, I can't just ask her about her

you know

girl clothes look different here.

Then don't Get her clothes? Not all women like that, anyway. What about something shiny?

[Thanks Allura.]

I don't know anything about jewelry.

_{[Should he have tried to ask just girls? Maybe that would've been better.]}

Okay What's her favorite color.

_{[S h i t.

Okay, think... See, he doesn't even know his own favorite color. There was the contest... That had been pretty Colorful, and given what Spinel looks like now... ]}

Purple? She was wearing a lot of purple when we met in person for the first time.

_{[End him. Thank the gods for having an anonymous feature on these 'gears.]}

Hey! There's a start! Try for something with purple in it. Maybe a necklace? Or... hair clips? I'm running out of ideas.

[LOOK the last two women he was very close to were a space alien princess and ... Pidge I Will Kill You With Computers Katie Holt... so.]

There's hundreds of different kinds of those. I wouldn't know where to start.

_{[The only girls he's somewhat close with are Sasha, Ymir, and... Annie. There's Pieck too, but he hasn't seen her since he was eleven or so. And given how things were back home, dressing up was never a possibility.]}

Just Pick the one that looks like something she'd like It's the thought that counts here.

That's still going to leave|

a lot.

I don't get fashion.

There's really no harm in trying. As long as she knew you meant JFFI I CA N HE LP

[Sorry, Bert. That last bit was hammered out by a very enthusiastic Gallade. Blue ... thinks he has incredible fashion sense.]
