Welcome to the user manual for your new Shadesong! This is chapter #983: How to tell if Shadesong *likes you* likes you.

Due to one of many manufacturing defects, Shadesong expresses interest in much the same way as the average preteen boy. Think kicks in the shins. If Shadesong *likes you* likes you, expect to be poked in the giblets. Also, expect Shadesong to dart quick looks at you, then look away. This occurs in tandem with Shadesong either being very quiet or babbling incessantly and always saying the exact wrong thing. If your Shadesong appears suave in any way, she only likes you as a friend. (It's okay. This can change, given time and careful application of chocolate and comic-book-related witticisms. See chapter #985.)

If your Shadesong expresses interest in ways shown above, kiss her, as she will likely be too shy to kiss you herself.

Shadesong has also been known to refer to herself in the third person. This is unrelated to the previously-detailed defect; Shadesong is just a weird kid.

Seriously, y0. It's a good thing the people I crush on seem to find my fumbliness endearing.

I call that 'kindergarten love'. I had a 'slap you in the face' contest with a girl in a big mall once cuz we liked each other. It was kinda like tag. We obviously didn't hit hard.

No...That's not true...that's impossible...

Actually, if you were referring to yourself in the second person, that'd be weird.

I'll remember to bring chocolate if and when we ever get to run into each other. *grin*

Hmm... You could easily substitute my name for yours in that post and have it be pretty accurate. Trouble is that my crushes almost never ever go anywhere.

You know how cute that sounds... sounds like it'd be fun to watch you crushing, even if it is on someone else!

Ground rule: Never trust anyone who's totally suave and unflustered about their crushes. (Says the blushing and hiding guy.)

I don't know how to tell if Shadesong is being suave or not. Also, she always seems to be darting quick looks everywhichwhere. Either this means I don't know how to spot her quick looks and where they're directed, or it means I only ever see her when she's surrounded and suffering from crush-whiplash.

Well, the latter's definitely true! Boston = constant crush-whiplash, pretty much.

So you being nice to me means...
YOU HATE ME!
Why?
WAAAAAAAAHHH! sob...

So,
How was your weekend?

Where exactly is one's "giblets"?

If I knew I would be meeting you sometime, I'd make sure to have chocolates.....
