Emma is probably the flashiest person in the room after all ;)<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>Well that's just the thing, the only reason he noticed Naoki was because they had exchanged glances and had a brief little thing, there was a prior interaction that caused him to pick him out of the crowd of dozens of people he happened to be walking past. How many times have you just happened to notice someone familiar in a crowd, and then stopped to oggle at whoever they just so happened to be talking to? I'd imagine not that often, you just give them a short little greeting or wave and continue on your way. And also by the school's standards how flashy is Emma really? He's wearing a shirt, trousers, and boots. Like half the cast are currently wearing more outrageous outfits than that, and have similarly well done make up. Also again AJ also has tanned skin and light hair, so these features wouldn't really stand out to him as something extraordinary. Yeah if he actually stopped to take a good look at Emma he'd notice that he was very pretty and done up, but on a casual glance as you scan the room it's not something that's gonna really cause him to double take and go "oh my goodness!". Like I said he's been here for three years already, he's pretty much seen it all, he's desensitized to it. His mind literally does not distinguish traps from any other person in the crowd anymore, and that crowd is currently made mostly of other traps. In that moment the regular guy who supposedly hates traps who was suddenly giving you the eyes would stand out WAY more than the random freshman he was talking too, he's like a sore thumb sticking out amongst a crowd of pretty boys.
