Dear Laura,
There's this Norn I really like named Dylan, and I'm pretty sure he likes me too. We're practically best friends, and the other Norns are constantly suggesting that we get together. Every time this happens, Dylan's always said to me "If you asked me out, I wouldn't say no." I really want to ask him if maybe he wanted to go grab some tea, but I can't seem to work up the courage. How do I tell him how I feel?

Dear Lost for Words,
Why don't you try practicing what you're going to say by asking a Grendel out first? Getting together with Dylan will be a piece of cake afterwards, I can assure you! Sure, you might end up having to go on a date with the Grendel as well, but what's an awkward rendezvous in the Jungle Terrarium and a token gift of fungi, compared to a romantic tea party in the gentle shade of Veridia with the Norn of your dreams? I think it's a small price to pay for true love. The Grendel might stare at you with hungry eyes, but be careful not to mistake that type of hunger with the hunger of passion!
