Should we be doing all the usual things we do when we're anonymous? Admitting to our crushes? Slandering our peers? Everyone's been downright orderly today.

I'll throw my hat in the ring: tell me who you admire from afar and I'll tell you how you should ask them to Prom. Satisfaction guaranteed.

Rosemary Stoker.

[untarnish]

Rosemary's no romantic, but she does seem like she'd secretly appreciate a demonstrative devotee. Have you considered shouting your invitation from a rooftop? The higher the better. Just watch out for birds.

Walk deep into the woods. Find the smoothest, roundest stone. Press it to your cheek until it's warm and whisper all your affections into it. Then throw it into the lake.

If it washes back up, you'll have your answer.

[bambae]

what the fuck is wrong with you people.

[sylla]

Too late.

[untarnish]

For at least a few of you, I'd imagine. But our less socially adept classmates still need my help.

Coralee Wong

[untarnish]

Coralee will only accept an invitation from the beau who makes her a dress of spun gold and spider's silk with his own two hands.

Tell me all about Mackenzie Prince. See, I'm a devoted freshman just dying to win her affections. I'll even hold off slandering my peers 'til I've got it figured out.

[untarnish]

I'm so sorry to tell you, but Mackenzie Prince is the one girl in the entire universe who you can never have. She's fated for another.

LUCAS!!! I could get lost in that hair!!

[keepsmovin]

Right???
Wait are you Bash
probs not, lbr
wait does it mean Bash has competition???

[keepsmovin]

Maybe that's the key to controlling the madness! Split it up. Divide and conquer. Instead of letting it all explode in the confined space of one shared entry.

[untarnish]

You must have the Sight, too. You've got everything all figured out.

[meerigold]

Avery. She seems to have noticed every boy but me. :(

[untarnish]

All it'll take is a single flower, but it must be the correct one and you've only got one chance.

[meerigold]

Reid!! I don't care if he can only last for twenty minutes!!!

[solveforx]

Off the market, friendo.

Casey Patterson

[untarnish]

This is a conundrum: Casey's aura is bright red and he's very dominant. I'm afraid the only hope is to wait until he asks you.

Cricket Quayle

[untarnish]

Cricket! You have a good eye. This may be a little complicated, so be sure to copy it down into your own book. Make a mixture of dried sage and salt and grind it til it's fine and dusty. Keep it in a crystal phial, or the magic will all seep out of it. Carry with you everywhere you go, and the next time you see your flame, dump it out into your right hand. Toss it over your left shoulder. That'll put you into a deep sleep that only Cricket can break with her kiss. Once she wakes you, there's your opening to ask.

Mina Tran

[untarnish]

The person who's going with Mina has already been decided upon. They just don't know it yet. If it's you, you'll know soon enough.

PIPPA!!!

[untarnish]

To ask Pippa to prom, you'll need three little bottles, each one with a cork and a ribbon. Fill one with sunshine, one with moonbeams, and the last with starlight. Then split your message into three and tie each third to a bottle with a bit of ribbon. You can leave them any place; she'll find them in the right order.

[magitechnically]

JADE!!!

[untarnish]

Take off your shoes and socks. Stand in the Rainbow River, just ankle-deep. You'll find it's terribly cold. But if you can bear it long enough, Jade will happen past and offer you her coat. Keep it for at least three days. Before you return it, write a letter asking her to prom and stash it in the pocket. If your penmanship isn't offensive, she'll say yes.

[magitechnically]

ARI!!!

[untarnish]

Of course all the girls at this school are witches, but Ariadne is a different breed. You'll need to do something old-fashioned, even if it seems silly and superstitious. If you can find a black cat, having it deliver your invitation for you will suffice. Otherwise, you'll need four candles in different colors, a hand bell made of brass, and a very old book. The book will tell you what to do with the candles, and you'll only need the bell if you're very unlucky.

ESSIE!

Asking for a friend.

Cassius Holcommbbm--- [Followed by an unintelligible scribble as Micah tries to stop Calvin.]

That's an unusual name.

Ennis Harper.

Stamp a message out in the dewy morning grass just before dawn. You might have to wake him up so he sees it.
