[ Monika started the video feed on an impulse. She'd been spending hours trying to work up the courage to post the quest in text form, but to no avail. Best way was to get rid of it without thinking. ]

Hey everyone! So um, I'm here about that quest from Merlin. [Okay, she needed to clear a misconception first:] It's not like I need it or anything, but I kind of get completionist instincts when I see a time-limited quest reward. [There.] And besides it could theoretically be very useful if you had a crush on someone and didn't know how they'd react to your confession... If that spell worked on them, that'd mean they're also attracted to you, right? N-Not that I have anyone like that yet, but you never know... A-Ahaha...

[ Gosh. Why couldn't she have shut it up after she mentioned the completionist thing? ]

Um... Anyway, that's a pick up line first, right? [She cleared her throat.] Well, u-um... Are you an overdue book? Because you have fine written all over you!

[ With that said, she marked a pause and looked away, her face red as a tomato. That was the best she'd been able to come up with... Thankfully, her best was incredibly lame. Surprisingly, it was more embarrassing to say stuff like that to an open audience than to a single invisible player. ]

As for a line that'd work on me... When I look into your eyes, nothing exists for me anymore because I lose myself in them. [An agonizing pause. If lameness could kill, she'd be dead.] I-It's pretty good, right?

[She make a thoughtful sort of hmm and even though she still speaks lightly she looks like she's thinking about what she's saying.]

Well, most of the people I know who use pick up lines are just looking for a hook up or they're Sakaki-sensei and basically all his dating decisions are made by his lower half...if you know what I mean.

I think pick up lines are hilarious and they're great to use on my friends just to see their reactions. [Which is mostly to say she likes teasing them and getting them flustered.] But using them on someone I like...that seems like it might cause a different sort of misunderstanding, you know? Like they might think I'm just joking around or I lost a bet or something.
