Simon has been out if the dating game a very long time. So when he starts feeling romantic towards fionna hes clueless on how to engage. Struggling with accepting the idea of loving someone new and someone the ice king was obsessed with aside his friends try and help him with advice.
Finns advice has simon on edge but he was ooos sweetheart for so long maybe he had a point. Alot of gis advice was stuff he learned from jake.
slow beat boxing and sword spinning. Complementing fionnas smell in a deeper voice. When he tries he turns to bright red to really speak and fionna has to pat him to calm him down. All he managed to say was 'you smell cupcakes' which has fionna looking aroind and answering no. She sniffs herself and laighs stating she smells like garys kitchen cause she was helping him bake. When he tried beat boxng he cpuldnt get a rythem going and cake over shadowed him with her own sick beats that turned into fionna rapping about sad junk and the two laughing.
Simon goes to bubble gum for help seeing as she is fem presenting and would know how to flirt better. But she wasnt much help either. She told him to create something that fionna would adore then crush it to show her how powerful he could be. That in his own way he was a god. Or he cpuld raise a dead relitive of hers. Simon knew those were bad ideas. So he musters up the courage t talk t his daughter about it.
Marceline laughs telling him bubblegum is intense and doesnt actually understand romance. Its all facts to her. Thay her and marceline were meant to be like some mathamatic equation. But fionna isnt into numbers. So Marceline tells him to write a song for fionna. Shed help with the beat. It took awhile but he finally got it down. Only down side he was to emberessed to show her or play it for her.
Counterly, fionna had been flirting with him the whole time. Callong him every sweet name in the book and sticking with babygirl. Finding excuses to pick him up and carry him. Have him cook for her. Prompt him to talk abput his feild. She didnt understand a lot of what he said but the passion he spoke with she could listen to for hours. Gifting him neat things she found on the ground. Biting him lightly on the shoulder at times.
Cake knew she was crazy about him but simon didnt seem to understand she was flirting.
