[In a highly shocking turn of events, Neville looks nervous.]

So. Uh. Convergence.

And the festival.

[He has the flower situation well under control. And nothing else.]

What are you supposed to... do, when you take a girl to a party like that? I've got dancing down, but that's about it...

Drinks, gifts...

You do plants, don't you? Get her some flowers for her hair.

[Now that he's married, Luke feels that he's qualified to give dating advice. Hey, if he was successful that means he must have been doing something right. And no, "being cute" and "having nice abs" doesn't count. He totally did more than that despite what Kaylee might say.]

Just be yourself. Focus on having fun and make sure she's having fun too.

Oh! And sometimes surprising her with things you know she likes can be really helpful. On one of our first dates I took Kaylee to a hardware store.

Get yourself fitted for a good suit.

[When Kaidan was Neville's age, he was in the middle of BAaT and its limited dating pool, but he can certainly remember being another worried teen boy unsure of How To Girls.]

There's a reason people go for men, or women, in dress uniform, and a big part of it is that you're wearing something tailored. She'll like the sight, she'll appreciate that you went to the effort, and you'll feel better about yourself. Other than that... just go do what you'd normally do together to have fun at a festival. Dates are supposed to be about spending time with someone you like, just you and them.
