A world-weary, young maiden wound up in the studio of lonely, young musician. Together they survived a long, arduous game night, and they went their separate ways. But, the maiden told the good fairy, Amelia, "Invite him to karaoke, but be subtle about it." And, the good fairy spoke thus: "Hey, my friend thinks you're cute. You should come to karaoke with us." The good fairy's magic worked. After much nervous foot-dragging, and hand-wringing, he finally asked for the fair maiden's number... and didn't call... for two weeks... which made things "awkward..." The musician and the maiden despaired! One night, at a tavern full of mirth, music, and mead, the musician's scholarly friend, Mike, pulled him aside, and offered him some sage advice: "Dude, she's in to you. Ask her out already!" After much more foot-dragging, and additional hand-wringing, he asked her on a date! She said yes! Henceforth, he became her "Knight in Rusty Mini-Van"
