Valentine's Day is getting really close, huh...

I barely remember what it was like in '59. I guess those memories weren't very important. What's normal for Valentine's these days?

[Other than stuffing his face with ice cream because the people he wants to spend it with don't exist. That's already part of his plan.]

[Well, she sounds weird. And talks very loudly. He winces a bit, and tries not mention it...]

You talk really funny.

[...Or does that. Good job, Jack.]

[She winces herself. Wow she knows but most people don't mention it. She hesitates and then quickly switches to text on her screen. She lets him continue with video. Better to do that before a cat starts peeking up behind her]

I'm a little deaf sorry!

Oh.

I didn't... I mean...

If that's-...

I'm really sorry.

No it's okay! I'm just not really used to it anymore!

It's- I- nevermind, I won't bring it up. You sound fine.

[Enjoy Jack being an upset puppy.]

Please don't be mad at me.

Don't worry, it's fine. Do you have any other questions about Valentine's day?

Uhh... I guess I don't.

Except it kind of reminded me it's been a while since I've gone steady with anyone.

[At least, he hasn't dated anyone real in NEVER.]

I remember it was weird for a guy like me to be asked out instead of asking. Is that still true?

Hmn, well depends. Some guys are more picky about it than others. But we live in the future. Ask them out. Let them ask you out. Whichever

I don't have anyone in mind yet... I guess I just wanna know if I have to be the one to make the first move.

[Jack, considering your history, you should not be scared of this step.]

Well maybe! Maybe they might make a move on you. If you don't have someone in mind it's hard to tell one way or another.
