Just tell her she smells better than the first time they met.

--- Quote from: DaiJB on 21 Mar 2018, 19:44 ---Now, I know Brun is a bit OCD and somewhat oblivious to the obvious - but if a girl pushed up to me and said "Smell me"....Woooo... (pulls on collar, lets out steam)

Really? I would think the words "smell me" would repulse most men because idk when I hear that I think "BO" and kill the mood.

Context is king. Or queen.

I would think in that close proximity, and in that narrow stairwell, he would already be able to smell her - if only subconsciously - so that would be his initial context. Only if he had smelled overwhelming BO would his initial reaction have been repulsion. Considering his awkwardness, I'm surprised he was able to answer her at all... must be thanks to his "liquid courage".

Clinton seems to be looking toward a post-singularity Singularity.

Complete with little to no foresight as to how they may appear or behave until after they've come alive and freak us out with their creepy eyes (or what have you).

This is pretty much classic Brun here. She doesn't really 'get' personal boundaries; everything is about efficiency and accurate communication. I don't know if she doesn't realise the affect she has on Clinton or if she's noticed, doesn't understand it and has decided that, as she doesn't know what his body language means, she should just ignore it!
Meanwhile I have some bad news for Brun: There is an upper limit to the protection given by any antiperspirant. Eventually, your body's need to sweat will overcome it. Irritating, I know but that's biology for you!
Now, how is Brun going to handle this problem? Does she have a change of clothes in her locker? Or is she going to ask Clinton to help her bathe in one of the sinks in the restrooms? It doesn't matter because it's going to be a cause of great embarrassment (and embarrassed arousal) for Clinton whilst there is no conceivable way in which Elliott will be able to do anything but misinterpret what's going on!

God *damn*, boy. That is not what you say. You inhale, pause, collect your thoughts and say "Daffodils. Warmth. Hard work. I don't think I have ever liked any smell better." You don't kiss her, because she is on some spectrum or other and getting in that close is a mark of trust, not an invitation, but you, how you say, you relax your body into her nearness, making it evident that you enjoy it. I am the biggest nerd in the world -- well, OK, second place but the winner cheated -- and even I can see that. Dude! What? C'mon. What are words for if not for praising what you love?
People are weird about smell though, and act as if no one should have one. I know what pretty much everyone I like smells like, and would have a very hard time liking them if I didn't like their smell.
