So I did in fact have my first set opening last night. 2 girls (HB8 and HB7). I opened with "is it gay for guys to wear makeup?" Naturally they say yes so I say "What about rockstars and famous people? They wear makeup." At this point they were interested but not laughing. I got blown out pretty soon into it because this drunk chick (HB8) came over and started getting all over me. What could I have done to:
1. Transition the convo into something other than makeup so that I could demonstrate higher value.
2. What could i have said to make a joke about the drunk girl
3. What could I do about initiating kino.
4. And finally, HB7 was sort of trying to move it along close to the beginning. What could I have said to get her to need to stick around.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
It seems the road to adding an "m" to "PUA" could be an arduous one.

When the drunk girl went all over you, you could have told her, "Easy girl, I'm not THAT easy."

Then look at the two girls, roll your eyes, and say, "Every where I go, I swear." Hopefully that'll discourage the drunky.

Then you could have turned the conversation over to the girls. "So you girls don't find men with make-up attractive?"

They say "No."

"You both agree?" You read their body language. Open up with a best friend test, to gain their interest and demonstrate your value. Launch into regular conversation. Try to get a high-5 or touch their arms during talking.

Don't show attraction until you start seeing IOI's. If the two girls are standing alone, you should try and merge them with another group, and isolate the target as soon as possible (so another guy doesn't shark for her). Build comfort, and then eventually kino.

About the drunk chick you could just say "Wow, she's crazy right?" and then just act like you dont see her and move onto how stupid it is to get shit faced every weekend. Unless thats what you do, just whatever you do, practice what you preach. =]

I've made a promise I intend to keep.

When a girl comes onto you real fast say "Woah! You're coming on so hot I think I'll call you Dragon Lady."
This is DHV too!
And you can use that later to make her relive that moment of your DHVness; example, when you call her back the next day.

As soon as that other girl came and started getting all over you, fire a line out such as... "Come on.. Hands off the merchandise" Cocky funny ofcourse. I know its old school and classic but always works a treat. You could then follow it up by adjusting your body position to cut her out the picture.
