[ Basically what Akashi's gotten from this conversation is that exclusivity + no sex = date. Good job, Kise. ]

I see... well, your input is appreciated, Ryouta. Thanks for the advice.

[ Well, that's... almost right? ]

You're welcome~~ And don't forget to bring flowers and chocolates or something! And say nice things! Oh, but don't talk too much about yourself, you don't wanna look self-centered! And if someone asks you to go home with them and come up to their room the answer is ABSOLUTELY NOT!!

[ Think of all the nice things that Akashi would say about Henry, though. Just think about them. ]

Are you sure that you aren't unnecessarily complicating things, Ryouta?
Also, I'd think it's normal that orders might get reversed of what's "acceptable" due to our environment.

[ "You kill people real nice" is still better than... no, okay, it's really not better than anything. In fact, it may be the worst. ]

You asked me about dating and I'm telling you about dating! Do you think I'm making this up?

[ "I wouldn't want anybody to kill me but you" isn't the most romantic thing ever?! ]

No, I don't think you'd make things up and attempt to fool me into thinking it's true.

[ Such faith... ]

I'm just wondering aloud how much social conventions like this might change because of the Twelve's influence.

[ Awww, it's all warm fuzzy feelings up in here. >]

A date is a date! Even with the pervert gods, if you want it to be a date, this is what it has to be!

I understand.

[ Well, mostly, that's good enough. ]

In that case, I'll endeavor to put your advice to good use, Ryouta.

Great! So why do you wanna know, anyway?

Personal reference, of course.

[ What does it take to get a straight answer out of Akashi Seijuurou? Probably at least one demonic summoning ritual. ]

[ If nothing else, Kise's curiosity is going to lead him to try everything he can to get that answer — up to and possibly including the summoning ritual. ]

Since when? It's not like you've ever cared about dating before... Unless there's someone here you're interested in? Who, tell me!

If, theoretically, there were somebody I were interested in, then who do you think that would be?

[ Ah yes, the beginning of "jump through 10 hoops to get a normal people answer". ]

[ At least Kise is well-trained enough to make it through all those hoops...? ]

Hmmm. Someone you get along with. Maybe Annie?

She would likely find it a waste of time, I think.

Then who else? It's not Momocchi, and you don't really spend that much time with any other girls...

I'll let you ponder the possibilities on your own time, Ryouta, but it's probably nothing that would strain your imagination.

Besides, I'm not saying that I intend to go on a date myself.

[ This is only about two shades less transparent than "I'm asking for a friend!!" ]

[ Yeah, Kise's definitely not buying that, Akashi is definitely acting Very Suspicious. ]

At least tell me if it's someone I know! Akashicchi, come ooooon!

[ He needs the deets so he can stalk properly, jeez! ]

You do know him, though I suppose it goes without saying they aren't from back home. Why are you so curious, Ryouta?

[ See now, that was a whole two hints. ]

[ So generous. ]

Because it's a big deal if you're going on a date! Is it Damon? Are you taking him out somewhere to kill him???

To be entirely honest, I can't be bothered to waste that kind of effort on him.
While irritating, at least he's the kind of irritating I can easily avoid.

[ Not that Akashi would be opposed if Damon just wanted to like, walk off a cliff or something. ]

Not a grand revenge plan, then? WAIT DOES THAT MEAN YOU REALLY ARE GOING ON AN ACTUAL DATE?????

Like I said before... I'll leave that up to your imagination, Ryouta. Try not to make up anything too far-fetched, though, because I'm sure it won't be as exciting as you anticipate.

WAIT AKASHICCHI WHO IS IT WHEN ARE YOU GOING WHERE ARE YOU GOING ?????

[ WHERE ARE THE DEETS?? ]

What would you even do with that information, Ryouta? Follow us around?

[ Haha, nobody would ever do that, right? Hahaha. Yeah... ]

Of course not! I just wanna know, it's not everyday Akashicchi goes on a date!

[ Ha ha ha, follow his friends around on their dates, Kise would never do that... ]

Pick who, when, or where. I'll tell you one, and leave the rest for you to figure out for yourself.
