Neon nearly jumped out of his skin as soon as he heard Syren right behind him. He jerked around like a meerkat sensing danger but just let out a sigh of relief. He crossed his arms and looked between the both of the people currently trying to educate him about the complex and Kafkaesque maze that is a ‘relationship’.
Neon “Anxiety… why does that word follow me everywhere I go!? Why can’t this stuff just be easy? I feel like I’m trying to chew a jawbreaker in one go. Not one of those tiny ones that come in the little plastic wrap, I’m talking about those giant ones, like Ed Edd n’ Eddy sized!”
He stuffed another wad of sour gummy worms into his mouth. Basically using them to pacify himself at this point.
Neon “This doesn’t make sense, I can climb a 20 foot ladder and jump off of it into a bunch of fire for all I care, why is this specifically so frightening?“

She didn't say anything right away, eventually glancing up at Mason with a curious expression on her face.
Syren: Let me guess, this about that Lorelei chick...right?
Of course, Mason nods in the affirmative. Syren grins a little and lowers her stare down at Neon yet again.
Syren: Yeah, I suppose I could see that. So what's the problem, I mean you call her up and tell her what's on your mind sometime. Women enjoy an assertive man, you know? ( she pauses ) Wait...do you actually like girls?

Mason Sterling: He says he does...I'm not really sure though.
The Silverback shrugs lightly, letting his stare drift off down the hallway randomly as she seems to be handling it at the moment. Clearly nervousness certainly wasn't a problem for Mason, he had always been extremely confident about things.

Neon “Wh- How do you know about this too?! Is EVERYONE keeping a journal about this or something?”
Neon pouted until he looked like a bratty little kid that wasn’t getting his way as they questioned his preferences.
Neon “Oh you guys think you’re reeeeal funny huh? Look, the problem is I don’t know how to put any of my feelings into words because I can’t even tell what I’m feeling half the time. I feel like I’m living through someone else. Me and Lori always seem to be able to click and at least relate to one another. But like… Where do I go from here? I feel like there’s steps Im missing.”

Syren: You could try the direct approach. Just grab her up, look into her eyes, and tell her...'take off your clothes'...you know, take the lead and be a man about it. Plenty of women will respond to something like that.
An approach that worked on her once in the past.

The Silverback grins at Syren's suggestion, clearly all for the alpha approach.
Mason Sterling: Corner her in the locker room sometime and talk to her. When she gets to understand you a little better, she might be a little more active or responsive to things...would give you an idea.
A tried and true method that actually gained Mason a wife when it was over.

Neon “What!? I… I don’t even know how I would do that. Like… I don’t even know what she looks like under her clothes. I mean I do have a good idea… whenever we were in the car her body did that little jiggle thing whenever we hit a speed bump and then…”
Neon immediately shut his mouth, waving his hands all around in the air as if swatting flies that carried bad thoughts.
Neon “You know what, you guys obviously know a lot more than me about all of this. I’m just going to smash your guy’s advice together like some kind of sandwich. Then I’m just going to run in like a bull on this topic, the same thing I did when I first came here and the same kind of logic that I’ve been living my entire life off of!”
Neon screams out before throwing back the rest of those gummy worms. He then reaches behind one of the crates, taking a can of Mountain Dew that he always keeps on his person, clicking it open, then beginning to chug it back in only about five gulps before walking off down the hall with an absolute purpose.

Syren: This is gonna end badly, isn't it?
She asks as she glances over in Mason's direction with a sly grin.

Mason Sterling: I'm sure we'll hear about it either way.
He says with a shrug of his massive shoulders, sending Syren a short nod before he turns to continue on his way also.
