[She's new, obviously, and looking a little distressed as she tries to figure out the communicator well enough to make some use of it. Sitting down by the shipyard, her blonde hair is tied back in a messy ponytail, trying to keep it from getting in her face as she tries to figure out what's going on here.]

Excuse me... [A good start, right? Polite.] I'm a recent arrival to this place and would appreciate any information I could be given on it. It's not quite right for anywhere I know of home.

[It's short, but effective, she hopes. Canada then more or less repeats herself in French, then German and Russian and Japanese, the first languages that come to mind for good international communications.

But just to be safe, she tries text, too:]

Information and/or assistance in returning home would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I don't think that's entirely appropriate to request within the first few minutes of meeting someone, I hate to tell you.

[tapdancinskelly]

Really? That's strange...

[video]

[mounties]

You really think so?

[video]

[tapdancinskelly]

Yeah... It seemed like a perfectly reasonable thing to ask someone you think is beautiful beyond words to me...

[mounties]

Generally a date works best as a precursor to that, hate to tell you.

[tapdancinskelly]

Is that how it works? I thought you were supposed to ask if you could see her panties, and then once you got to know her well enough, ask if she'd go on a date with you.

((ooc: Seriously, he was convinced this was the order in which it is supposed to be done. It kind of explains a lot about why he ask if he got the two turned around in his head somehow...))

[mounties]

Oh, no, sorry. Whoever told you that was probably just messing around with you. Usually compliments and kindness lead to a date, and then, maybe, if you're lucky, you're allowed to ask to see a lady's underwear.

Y-you mean... my whole life... I've been getting it wrong?! OH THE BITTER STING OF IRONY!!

[video]

[mounties]

Haha... it's alright. Happens to the best of us.

[tapdancinskelly]

...

So uh...

Is that a yes by the way?

[It seems it still hasn't really sunk into his thick skull]

[video]

[mounties]

No.

Sorry.

[video]

[tapdancinskelly]

Yohohoho! Well, I can't say I'm exactly surprised.

[video]

[mounties]

Ha, I wonder why...

Well, umm... I wish you luck, in getting it in the right order in the future.

[tapdancinskelly]

I wonder... if I were to ask you in the proper order would you consider it?
