Well then... if I may diverge from previous possible conversations...

You are outvoted, 2-1. Ergo, you are democratically deemed interesting.

Re: Macaron

[experiencepoints]

You've got bad taste.

Re: Macaron

[goodbyenurse]

Do not insult yourself in such a manner. I have already noticed several of your positive qualities.

Re: Macaron

[experiencepoints]

... That's why I'm telling you you have bad taste.

Re: Macaron

[goodbyenurse]

Nightingale... while Apollo, Isa and Coco might have bad taste, I can assure you that my own is exquisitely refined. If you interest me, it is because you are interesting. Further, if I state that you have positive qualities then I have found some.

Re: Macaron

[experiencepoints]

I'm calling bullshit.

Re: Macaron

[goodbyenurse]

Shall I shout objection and present evidence? It is a specialty of mine.

Re: Macaron

[experiencepoints]

Please don't shout.

Re: Macaron

[goodbyenurse]

Then I shall say it:

Objection. You are incredibly symmetrical and overall lacking in notable blemishes or disfiguring scars or tattoos. Combined with your youth, you are empirically attractive. Speaking to your personality, I do not yet know you well but you seem to be largely upfront, if perhaps cynical. It is not a bad thing.

Re: Macaron

[experiencepoints]

...

Okay, people keep saying I'm attractive here, which I still don't buy, but that has to be the most bizarre way I've heard it said.

Re: Macaron

[goodbyenurse]

It is true, is it not? Speaking superficially, most people have a preference for symmetry. Depending on culture, your hair and eye color may also be considered highly desirable traits in a partner.

Re: Macaron

[experiencepoints]

...

I don't even know how to react to this.

Re: Macaron

[goodbyenurse]

Generally this is the point where you attempt to find a contradiction in my claim, or else present new evidence which disproves it.

Re: Macaron

[experiencepoints]

Even if you were right, which you aren't, looking nice doesn't make up for a shitty personality.

Re: Macaron

[goodbyenurse]

A point on which I certainly agree. In that case, we shall move on to your personality.

I have not yet seen anything particularly shitty.

Re: Macaron

[experiencepoints]

You've barely met me.

Re: Macaron

[goodbyenurse]

Meaning that you have mastered the art of the first impression, which is key to appearing attractive. It is incredibly difficult to overcome the stigma associated with a poor first impression.

Re: Macaron

[experiencepoints]

...

Would it be rude if I started laughing in your face?

Re: Macaron

[goodbyenurse]

...Possibly.

I do not mind if you do, however.

Re: Macaron

[experiencepoints]

Okay.

Because that's about the only response that deserves.

Re: Macaron

[goodbyenurse]

I am curious as to why that is.

Re: Macaron

[experiencepoints]

My first impression on my team was calling them crazy, trying to go against all of their wishes, then leaving them all to die.

My first impression on most people here was being a huge bitch and ruining a party and pissing off a ton of people.

Re: Macaron

[goodbyenurse]

I see.

...I suppose you got lucky with me, then. Or perhaps it is I that was lucky with you?

Re: Macaron

[experiencepoints]

One of those, I guess?

Re: Macaron

[goodbyenurse]

Let us assume both, for the time being.

That said, given a positive first impression such as I have had there is nothing at all which seems unattractive about you. You perhaps have confidence issues and a tendency to blame yourself, but speaking from experience that is not something inherently bad.
