♡ Call 004 [audio, May 9, afternoon]
[Today, Death City is greeted with a little crackle of audio and a quiet whisper of 'ready?' before the following-]

 | Hey there everyone, your resident goddess of love here with special guest miss Rise Kujikawa for the first ever Death City broadcast of my show! |
| Hey everyone! I'm really excited to be here for such a special occasion. Thank you for having me on the show, Cupid-chan! |  |
| Thank you for agreeing to help out, Rise! Now, in just a few moments, Rise and I will start off with advice to questions that were left in my inbox in this last week or so. After that you're all free to send in texts to my inbox or just comment right here and we'll get to any questions you might have or have been too bashful to send in! |
| And don't be shy about it. Remember, there's probably at least one other person out there who's wondered the same thing you are, or had similar troubles to those you're having. So by asking our advice you're not only helping yourself, you're helping those other people too. | |
| Now, since this is a little different than my usual shows, I just have a couple of rules to put in place. One- nothing that will make me have to paraphrase for the sake of the younger residents without a filter, and two- no commentary about how 'romance is stupid'. If you're going to act like a pre-teen, I will not hesitate to take you to school on the matter. |
| Right. And serious questions only, please. If you think the subject matter means it's okay for you to waste our time with fake nonsense questions, you'd better think again. We'd much rather spend our time helping those who genuinely need our help. | |
| Now, with that said, let's get to our questions, shall we Rise? |
Absolutely. You first - this is your show, after all. | |

Anyway, our final question: Dear Cupid...
Well, first of all, I'm not sure how useful this advice is going to be while we're in Death City but just in case your warrior princess ends up coming here too or in case you end up going back to her, here's what I can suggest. First of all, timing is everything - arrange a time to meet her when neither of you is going to be distracted by other things. You want it to be somewhere you guys can talk in peace and it's probably better you choose somewhere neutral just in case she doesn't feel the same way - that way it's less awkward than being at your place or hers. Restaurants are good because you can talk during the meal and then you can get a feel for when the right moment is to confess.
And when that moment comes? Just be honest. Don't try to impress her with flowery speech unless you know you can pull it off. Just tell her how you feel and make sure you make it clear you like everything about her. Try not to focus too much on the physical - calling her beautiful is fine but don't go overboard in complimenting her physical features. Focus on her personality, on what draws you to her. Maybe it still won't work, but at least you'll know and so will she.

If you get tongue-tied though, try not to panic- just remember to try and stay relaxed and not to force yourself to do things too fast. No matter what, if you take things at your own pace, and you'll always get where you need to go.

I suppose that could work, but I don't know many places on Pekopon.
[M-maybe he could take her to the moon? Would that work?]
How can anyone stay relaxed in a situation like this!? Every time I talk to her outside of combat, my heart beats too fast for me to calm down!
no subject
I'm sure if you ask someone you trust, they'll be able to help you pick out a place. Moral support can be very important in things like this.
[...Giroro, getting to the moon costs a lot of money dude.]
It's hard to do sometimes, and it may involve a lot of long, awkward pauses, but once you're able to push past the initial nervousness it gets a lot easier, trust me.
no subject
Would it be better to ask a guy or a girl for suggestions?
[But the moon is only one giant slingshot shot away...]
In that case I will try to do as you say if I get the chance. Thank you for the advice.
no subject
That's entirely up to you- it all depends who you think would be the better person to go to for advice.
[That's not how physics works, Giroro.]
Good luck! And any time, really! I'm sure things will work out!
no subject
Understood.
And I hope you're right. [About everything working out, because, god, a date with Natsumi.]
no subject
Just try not to worry too much about it, okay? Sometimes you just have to sit back and hope for the best.
no subject
I'll try.
no subject
Right! I'm sure you'll be fine- I believe in you, hon!

A date with Natsumi. A date with Natsumi. A date with Natsumi. A date with Natsumi.
You can't see it, but there are proverbial grenades going off in his head.]
I could take her on a date?

Maybe a species that's native to her planet would be better, correct?
