Giving Thanks
"As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them." JFK

In America today is a day for being thankful for the things in people's lives. Today was a day to celebrate family, friends, prosperity and health with food, family and friends. It is a time to reflect on what is important us and to recognize the gratitude we hold for having those things in our lives.

	"You on the run from the law or something?" Rose asked with a grin. She was joking. Mostly. Rose grinned. "Hell yeah I drink tequila." One thing she was thankful for that she inherited from her father- the ability to hold her booze. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Oh, no. I just suffer from wanderlust, as they call it. I never let grass grow under my feet too long." Himon explains.

"Seen a lot of places and a lot of faces, and I like being able to go where I want. Do you travel much?" he asks, guessing that with a look as exotic as hers, she might.

"I'll order some tequila and you can tell me about where you've been." Himon offers, signaling the bartender. He orders a bottle of tequila and two shot glasses. He pours one and passes it to Rose, then fills the other for himself.

"Deal?"

	"I know the feeling," Rose said, "I never like to stay in one place for too long myself." That was one thing Rose liked about her job, that she was always on the move. And even when she wasn't on a job, her apartment never saw that much use, anyway. Rose took the shot offered to her, downing it. "Deal." She grinned. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Himon down his own shot and pours himself another. "Rose, tell me something I wouldn't learn about you just by looking at you." he requests. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I've never been afraid to get my hands a little dirty," Rose said, downing her shot. Yeah, it was something that he probably could've figured out on his own eventually, but she wasn't exactly going to be spilling her deep dark secrets to him, now was she? "What about you?"

	He takes another shot and considers his words. "Dying doesn't scare me; it happens to everyone. I'm afraid of being caged up and pretending that I'm not who I really am. That's worse than dying." he says simply, thinking of how Darkseid had allowed him to fight in the arena when he was younger. "Tell me something both true and untrue about you."

	"I understand that," Rose said, downing another shot. She looked at her next shot, mulling over what she wanted to say. "I don't like getting close to people," she said. "There's a couple of people I'm close too, but I've never been one to make very many long lasting friendships, and you don't even want me to get started on my family. Your turn."

"Family is a touchy subject for me, too. I've got one side that's really good, and another side that's should be wiped out with all due haste...but I don't think I'm the man to do it, personally." Himon says.

He takes a shot of tequila, then a shot of vodka as he considers his answer to his own question.

"I do not believe in true love, as my parents have, but I do believe that there is someone meant for each person in the world. No relationship is ever perfect, but it can be perfect for those who are in it. Not every thing ends in love, but it does mean something to the people who share it." he tells her.

"That likely makes no sense. Maybe the alcohol is affecting me after all." he chuckles.

"If you could have anything tonight, what would it be?" he asks.

"My family is either all dead or insane. I'm one of the sane ones, and that's saying something." Rose downed another shot of tequila.

"No, it makes perfect sense. I've never believed in true love. Never really been one for the whole soul mate theory either. At least, I'm pretty damn sure I don't have one. Maybe some people have someone they're 'destined' to spend the rest of their lives with but if I never find someone to settle down with? Fine by me."

She gave him a grin.

"You got any other plans for this evening?"

	"Oddly enough, my evening just cleared up. I could spend all night drinking with a beautiful woman, or going to other bars. I like this one. Good company." he grins. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Rose grinned. "You'll find I can be very good company," she said, leaning in a little closer to him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Somehow, I don't think I'll be disappointed with your list of activities." Himon says. "Do you want to finish these bottles and then head somewhere?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	rosewithathorn 2010-11-27 12:54 am UTC (link)
	"No, I don't think you will," Rose said. She grinned. "My apartment's not that far from here," she said. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dog_of_rage 2010-11-27 01:22 am UTC (link)
	"Good to know. I wouldn't want to waste too much time traveling before we can discuss the activities you have planned." Himon says. (Reply to this)(Parent)
