[Classic incognito message, with the picture blocked out and everything; he even makes an attempt to disguise his handwriting, which he forgets after the first three words.]
Say you want to ask a girl out. How do you go about doing that?
Girls like flowers, right?
[See, there's actually a lot of consideration that goes into this. For a guy with a faulty brain-to-mouth filter and a do-or-die attitude, the amount of waffling here is...strange, maybe. But everyone's a walking contradiction. He has some ideas, along with maybe ten different speeches that he's mentally mapped out over the past three years and never planned on actually using, but second- and third-guessing himself leads to this pandering for advice...thing. He's pretty sure it's lame, but... It couldn't hurt, right?
Okay, so maybe he's just procrastinating.]

[Anonymous dweebiness aside, Jean goes about his day as usual. Training at the Battle Dome; going to school; taking care of his horse at the stables, and taking him out for a ride into the woods; and checking the General Store for some...supplies, art supplies. Don't ask, don't tell.]

But as for making things weird, sure, it might be awkward a bit after if she says no or if you two go on a date and things don't work out. But if you're respectful of what she wants and don't push things, things smooth out.

I'm not gonna push it. [Because if he gets rejected by Mikasa, he'll be too embarrassed to ever bring it up with her again.] The last thing I want to do is make an ass of myself. More of an ass of myself, I mean.

And I really do wish you the best of luck and hope it goes well.
And if you go the flower route, if you don't know what her favorite flower is, go with a nice spring blend. Either something bright or a more subdued mix with white and yellow.
