Does anybody have advice on how to take a convincing picture at the ball? I need to take one with my partner.

[Sorry, Tatsumaki, but at least he wants to help convince your family that it's a real date?]

As opposed to a fake picture...?

[ Context, Shouto... Even a shitty blurry phone picture is convincingly real ]

first step is to actually go
thatll help your chances

It has to look like we're really on a date.

[He needs acting lessons but for a picture. Help Him.]

[byhalves]

I know that. I'm going to be there and so is she.

[savingazalie]

alright now try smiling

[compendiem]

I guess... if you're both smiling in the picture, holding hands, that sort of thing?

[ Can you smile? first hurdle ]

[byhalves]

Is that really necessary?

[byhalves]

[He Cannot.]

Wouldn't fake smiles just make it seem more staged?

[yokeye]

A FAKE SMILE AND POSSESSIVE ARM AROUND HER!
IT'S NOT HARD!

[compendiem]

There's always the option of real smiles...

[byhalves]

That just sounds like it will give them the wrong message.

[suddenlybees]

Just take one mid-kiss?
There's no arguing that~

[byhalves]

I'm not sure that will happen.

[Eeeeeeee! She's so excited for her best friend!]

It's with Tatsumaki-chan, right? She doesn't smile much for photos, so you don't have to worry too much about looking real. Holding hands would probably look authentic. Or you could both strike the exact same pose. Couples usually do goofy things like that, it's cute!

I hope you guys have fun!

[byhalves]

I don't think she'd like that.

[He might not have thought out this post very well.]

[compendiem]

It's always an option, though. Do your best... Maybe if the photographer told a joke?

[byhalves]

[Finally, someone who says he DOESN'T have to smile.]

Her family won't mind?

But thank you. I'll keep all of that in mind.

[byhalves]

Maybe. Though I don't speak a lot of French.

This seems more complicated than it's worth.

[leekspins]

No, her family is really nice and easy-going. They'll probably be surprised that she went to a dance with someone, but happy for her. You'll be okay!

Are you looking forward to it?

[suddenlybees]

[ People are giving him choice suggestions here, stop shooting them down!! ]

LOL~
How desperate are you to make it convincing?
How far are you willing to go?

[byhalves]

Okay. Thank you.

I'm not sure. I've never been to a dance before so I don't know if I should be looking forward to it.

[byhalves]

Not far enough to make her angry with me.

[They're bad suggestions!!]

[yokeye]

GIVE WHO THE WRONG MESSAGE?
CONTEXT!

[leekspins]

You're welcome!

I think it'll be a first for a lot of us! Not knowing what to expect is part of the fun, I think. If you like food, music, or fighting evil monsters, you'll probably have a good time.

I've known Tatsumaki for a couple of years now, so don't be afraid to ask me anything!

[byhalves]

I have to convince Tatsumaki's family she went on a real date to the dance.
