...a pretty crappy way to try to get to know a pretty girl.
It's not that no one's ever complimented Felicity before, but she did spend college decked out on complete goth attire and black hair to match. The black lipstick really, probably turned most people away, not that she gave a damn.
But she isn't that person anymore. She hasn't been for three years now, and when she hears Derek say that, she can't even bring herself to make eye contact quite yet. It's a good thing they're already walking too, because it buys her some time. But eventually, she can tell he's looking at her, and when she turns to see that grin, Felicity gives him a look — like she doesn't quite know what to make of him yet, but she's interested in finding out.
She clears her throat though, in an effort to change the subject.
"I wonder why everyone showed up on the same day. Or why this place plans it that way." An innocuous topic of conversation. Surely.
