[Locked from Mai]

Hey, uh...

[Leon clears his throat, pulling at the collar of his jacket. Why, he looks a little nervous! But he's never nervous. Surely you're just imagining things.]

I was thinking about taking a day off or something. You guys got any ideas for good hang out spots? Something nice. And, uh... Classy? Yeah. Just wondering... [He shrugs casually. There's no reason he's asking-- really! Nope. Just your friendly neighborhood workaholic trying to spend a day off.

He closes that line, then goes on to make a private feed to Mai.]

What's up? ...You busy today? I thought we could... hang out or something. [He's trying to act so smooth and casual, but he's really socially awkward and bad at this.] I mean, y'know. If you wanted. I don't care. Finished my work for the day and don't have anything else to do.

[W-Wait, that didn't sound right.]

I mean--! Not that you're a last resort or anything. [Just shut up, Leon.]

How 'bout Atlantica? The beaches are pretty awesome at sunset.

I don't say I have, though if your by yourself why would you need to go somewhere classy?

[iscursednomore]

How about my café? It can be classy at times.

[notsquall]

...Don't you turn into a half-fish thing in Atlantica?

[NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS. Wait, no. He's supposed to be staying cool and nonchalant.]

Maybe I just have refined tastes.

[A guy with long, messy hair that walks around in leather and a million belts has refined tastes. Yep.]

[notsquall]

Oh, right. You've got a café here in Radiant Garden. That might work...

[Would Mai like it, he wonders? Hmmm.]

Would I be able to get some privacy there?

[iscursednomore]

Well, we do have an area just for that type of thing. It's becoming pretty popular thing being alone with someone lately.

[That well, people have been asking for since...today.]

[controlstheice]

[Yeah, Aidou has never seen anyone like that be classy. Then again he really hasn't seen many people like Leon.]

To do something yourself. Or with someone?

[notsquall]

[His mouth pulls back into a frown.]

Myself. [/liar liar]

[notsquall]

[And Leon is quick to jump to to defensive... even if Fai never accused him of such.] I never said I wanted to be alone with someone. [Because he totally doesn't!]

[controlstheice]

Well then have you tried Traverse Town?

video;

[iscursednomore]

[Do you see the smile Leon, it's the smile of Fai cooking something up in his weird little head.]

I didn't say you were with someone, did I? I just said people have been asking as they were taking someone.

[And the boy she likes is asking her out on a date? His stammering is making her smirk.]

Leon. Just shut up. I would really... like hanging out.

[albinoidiot]

You're talkin' about classy and you're wearing that?

[Video]

[blitz_acing]

Leon, I had no idea.

Who's the lucky person?

[ninthserenade]

A mer? Yeah, but that doesn't take away from the beauty of the place! You can get to islands 'n stuff that most couple couldn't get to without boats!

[eagleofautozam]

A nice classy place?

[Eagle smiles. ]

Is this for a date? Have you known the person for very long?

[notsquall]

...Right. [Somehow, he gets the feeling Mai wouldn't like that.] No thanks. Maybe some other time.

[notsquall]

I lived there for a long time. ...But I guess the eternal night they have going might be nice.

[notsquall]

[Oh good heavens. He doesn't like that smile. Stop smiling!]

...No. But people keep accusing me and it's getting annoying. [Great cover-up! Right?]

[notsquall]

[Oh, hello Mai. What's that? He can barely hear you over the sound of his heart trying to burst out of his chest. Wait, she wants to hang out with him after that? ...Well, he's off to a better start than he expected.]

Heh... [He quietly clears his throat.] Good. I thought we could go to-- ... [What's a place someone suggested? Uh. Quick!] Fai's café here in Radiant Garden. What do you think? [...Man, that guy is weird. Why didn't he say Traverse Town or something?]

【 VIDEO 】

[notsquall]

...I can be classy. [Pffft.] Don't judge a book by its cover.

[Video]

[notsquall]

[Oh great-- he doesn't need this from Tidus! He's going to glower very strongly.]

No one. Shut up.

[notsquall]

It's not a date! [He doesn't care if it's filtered. It's not a date because it's not allowed to be a date. She has a boyfriend and he's a good guy, for crying out loud!]

[eagleofautozam]

[Whoa simmer down there! Eagle doesn't even know who Leon is thinking about. ^,^]

Alright, it does make a difference in what kind of destination might be better.
Maybe a place like Fai's Cafe then? It is a nice place and not too formal.
