"Once you have one of those, you should tell her. Recite some Shakespeare, or a poem, or just come out and tell her if that's something that works for you. Just don't use any of those terrible pick up lines. It's disrespectful and not many people can pull them off without offending or sounding like an idiot. " And really, when telling a female that she makes your stomach to flip-flops, there would always be plenty of other ways to end up sounding like an idiot.

"It's easier to like someone, than to be liked by someone you don't like." Zan added in a somewhat musing tone.
Dom watched the professor with curiosity, wondering what was ticking through his brain. He didn't have to wait long though before catching the nod; Truebridge was going to give him advice. An exit strategy - that sounded difficult, but useful. Even if she wasn't crazy, it'd still be nice to have a plan in case she didn't take to his presentation well.

Poem or Shakespeare? His memory flashed back to Kapoor's office when Cel-an-dine had called his sonnet 'Shakespearean'. He knew then what he needed to do: Write a new sonnet. About her.

"I think that I will write a poem..." Dom said decidedly, as he definitely couldn't imagine him outright saying it to her.

No pick up lines. Dear Merlin; he didn't even really know any! And if he did, well he didn't ... mean to know them?

The last statement brought him back to almost eighteen months ago in the fifth floor corridor. Camira liked him; no wait, she was infatuated with him. It wasn't that he disliked her, but there just didn't seem to be any pizazz. No adventure.

"Yes I agree with you there. Definitely easier to like someone than be liked by someone you don't." But then again, if the Claw didn't like him, then what? Move on. Females were strange creatures; who knew or could predict their actions?
