Is that a big party in America? Is it for school or family...? A holiday?

[requiemed]

Oh, yeah, it's a school dance. Kind of like prom, but less important.

[She tilts her head.]

Do they have prom where you're from?

[usogi]

[senri shakes his head]

Not in my high school....

School dances... that sounds really cute!

[requiemed]

[She nods.]

They're usually pretty fun. Kind of terrifying, but... fun.

[usogi]

[???]

Terrifying? Why?

[requiemed]

Social pressure, basically. Asking someone to go with you is... a whole thing. It's way more serious than it should be.

[usogi]

... oh.

[senri blinks at that - and he tilts his head, as if trying to understand]

Yeah... I guess I think I understand? High schools are already kind of vicious.

[requiemed]

Some people call it a promposal. That's how intense it can get.

[High school is Dumb.]

[usogi]

Oh.

Yikes.

[BIG YIKES???]

... I hope yours goes well after all this, Zo!

[requiemed]

Thanks.

[She shrugs after a moment, glancing down.]

I probably have someone who'll ask me, so - there's that, at least.

[usogi]

[GAAAAAASP]

Really? Who? I didn't know there was someone back home!

[please let him focus on this instead of the obvious awkward option]

[requiemed]

[oocly closes my eyes over this tag]

Yeah. His name’s Evan. He’s... a really kind person. He’s been helping my family a lot since - you know.

[usogi]

Oh - the one you mentioned before.

[and senri's expression softens at that]

That's... really sweet, Zo. I hope you two get to have a great time.

[requiemed]

[A soft huff of a laugh.]

Yeah. He seems like he could use a nice time for once.
