Merlin invites me to the Lincoln Sq Rooftop Lounge. "Dress to impress," he says. I go on GQ's website and put something together. Only one person notices my outfit includes white sneakers.
#1 The Architect
HB9.5 Filippina. Prettiest girl I've ever talked with. She's on her earphones, I tap her elbow, ask her about if my clothes are good for a nice lounge. She plays with my shirt and cuffs.
I melt as we fluff. Before she leaves, I fall apart: "Can I have your number?" She hardly manages a good-bye as she flees.
Never ask for a girl's number. The proper strategy is to say, "I really appreciated your help and you seem pretty cool. Let's go [insert thing she likes to do/see/eat that you are supposed to find out about as you fluff her]."
#2 Creepy Mr. Big
The Lincoln Sq Rooftop Lounge is easily the nicest place I've ever been.
I look around for Merlin, decide it's a lost cause. A fat guy is looking out the window and I open him. Apparently he comes every Friday to see the lingerie fashion show. The guy has a creepy air about him - from a lifetime of obesity and social exclusion I'm sure. Remind me to thank my deity for showing me Pick Up.
#3 The Scorpion King
He is a well-dressed up-and-coming fashion designer. When I open him, he is convincing a woman to volunteer to model some lingerie. We talk for 10 minutes.
#4 Harry Potter and the Art of Pick Up
I see a guy who looks like Daniel Radcliffe chatting up two girls. I wonder if he is Merlin. He introduces me to the girls, but he has so many things to tell me that the introduction doesn't last long. Eventually, he starts talking about VH1's Pick Up Artist and tells me his views on it.

By this point, I realize most guys can be opened simply by offering your hand to shake. You're in and they generally hook.
#5 Miss Pudge and the Ice Queen
I excuse myself when I see the Scorpion King talking with two Latinas. I pat him on the back and he accomplish introduces me! The HB8 is pretty cold, and she tells me right off the bat that she has a boyfriend, but the pudgy girl is extremely warm so I game her as hard as I can. Eventually, they go to the bathroom and ask me to watch their drinks.
#6 The Advertisers
I decide I can watch their drinks as I sarge an adjacent two set - an HB6 and 7. I ask them if they've come for the fashion show and they have - they just didn't know it was a lingerie show. The 7 has been staring off for most of the conversation, so I ask her if she's sad. As she opens up a bit, the Latinas return and I merge the sets. I then tell the Latinas that I'm going to go look for some friends.
#7 The Consultant
I look around again for Merlin, but I can't find him. As I'm writing something down at the bar, a man asks me if I'm waiting to order. I tell him no, offer him my hand, and he opens. He is short, unimpressive, and not alpha at all, yet he was invited here by one of the models. He had met her via an online dating site. The fashion show starts and we get a better view and my jaw drops when his friend comes out. In my opinion, she is the hottest model there.
#8 The Other Consultant
Another guy is standing next to us and for some reason I introduce him to the first consultant. Later, we meet Daniel Radcliffe's clone again, who also turns out to be a consultant. What the hell?
#9 A Japanese Biologist-turned-Fashion Photographer and Female After-School Programs
On my way back to the Dominicanas, I see a Japanese photographer and use my corny, "Me so hungry!" line on him.

#10 Krishna and the Mexicana
I return and kino up the pudgy one. She reciprocates. She's just a friend, but I like sexual tension.
I throw negs at the HB8 and she warms up. She refuses to scoot over to let me sit next to the pudgy girl. No go. Eventually, she gets up for a drink. I steal her place and tease her when she returns. Surprisingly, not only does she not get pissed (I was trying to push the envelope), but she smiles.
They introduce me to a Mexican friend of theirs, who comes to sit next to me and accepts a lot of kino.
After fifteen minutes, she remembers her friend and starts to speak with him. I lean my arm on her shoulder and tell her to introduce me. "My name is Krishna," he says. I pause.
Through my sarge networking blog, someone named Krishna had contacted me. We had planned to meet the following Monday for coffee. Is it possible that I am randomly running into this guy now?
"My name's Sparrow." His eyes widen.

"Sparrow!" We jump up and start talking excitedly. I'm sure everyone else is wondering what the fuck is going on.
Krishna and I go to the other side of the lounge and chat. A PUA friend of his is also here - we'll call him LaidBack. They're about to bounce to another club, but unfortunately, I probably will not be let in because of my shoes. It really is time to get this whole fashion-peacocking shit figured out. I have yet to go out and buy PUA gear.
We go back to the group and I meet LaidBack. We bounce and the pudgy Dominicana offers her number. She insists I call her - I grin and tell her I'll think about it. [I call her on Sunday for a few minutes, and I'll call her on Monday.]
On the way to the subway, I tell the Mexicana that we should chill sometime. She says she has a boyfriend. I tell her that's okay, he can cook us breakfast. I should have treated it like she said it was her birthday and given her a hug or something (TheHitter's recommendation). Basically, treat it like nothing that bothers you and just keep going.
LaidBack and I chat. On the platform, as I talk with the pudgy one, the HB8 stands between us and to the side a bit. She is rocking back and forth and keeps bumping into me. I want her really bad, but I am too chicken to escalate after I was escalating the pudgy one.

I decide to day two her and try to work my way to the HB8. Thanks to Chief from the mPUA Forums for giving me some advice on this.
#11 Tapping Caps and Ruffling Hair OR Why Do They Always Have a Boyfriend?
They eventually decide to take a taxi because the subway is not really working.

Later on the 7 Train, there are two girls I want to sarge. The train is too full for me to get around comfortably, so I chicken out.
I transfer to the F and notice the cuter of the two girls from the 7 is here too. I sit next to her as we board and I tap the brim of her cap. "Cute hat."
"Thanks," she says as she pulls out her earphones. "I got it at H&M."
"What is H&M?" Really, I'm not being sarcastic. I really am that stupid when it comes to clothes.
"You're kidding." We fluff, I kino and try to pepper in something sexual. She starts putting in 80% of the conversation and it's definitely the tension that's doing it.
As my stop approaches, I get anxious, so I ask for her number. She says she has a boyfriend and we fluff some more. As I leave, I ruffle her hair through her hat, and she gives me a gorgeous smile.
As I come aboveground, I feel as if I could have gotten much further with her. I should have stayed on the subway, treated her comment about her boyfriend like nothing, and kept kino escalating. In fact, I should have made it very sexual. If she really wanted to stay with her boyfriend, then she would have ended it quickly. If she was looking for adventure - well...
