Bendytime: Right after the Whole Thing.
Well, that had been eventful. And now, Cindy was standing here, trying to ignore the hunger. Lots, and lots of hunger. Either for food or for that smoking hot Amazon that she'd decided to stop staring at so much. So she was singing a song under her breath to try to distract herself.

"Who wants to be some handsome, stuffy playboy?/Who wants to face the bad guys all alone?/ The last thing that I need/ is to be a romantic lead./ I want to grow up to be Peter Lorre/ and steal the girl for my own."

	"Never? I have trouble believing that. You're very cute... I would have thought you would have had a... boyfriend, is it here? Or are you keeping yourself apart for your family arranging a marriage? I'm sorry, I don't know the American custom." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Cindy blushed. "Arranged marriages are fairly rare here," she starts out informatively. "I haven't had a boyfriend because i have never found a boy I was interested in dating. As for...girlfriends, I wanted to wait both until I was sure that was an appropriate course to pursue, and until... well, you're very flattering, but until I'd managed to showcase my better qualities for people."

	"Ahhh, so this is one of the nations where it is inappropriate to date a girl? Pity. That got to be too much for the girl I saw for a time in Israel." She sighs. "Too bad, you have many nice qualities." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Not compeltely inappropriate, just ... it's generally best to think about whether it's something one really wants to do, because people like my mother will... definitely ask if it's something one's sure one wants to do, and ....... thank you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Saishu is obviously trying to follow that, tilting her head and considering. "So... unless I mistook your look before, would it be inappropriate, or an issue with your mother... or not, if I asked you to... coffee, maybe?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cindy's still a little in shock. "...I have plenty of time to explain things to my mother, and it wouldn't be inappropriate at all." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Oh good, then perhaps you would go to coffee with me, if you and your mother wouldn't mind too much?" she replies with a small grin. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She brightens again. "Good, very good. It has been... a while since I dated. Too long. And as much as the solitude was good for training, it was getting lonely." she admits. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well, I'll always have a soft spot for Gateway, since I've been going to school there for years, but it's a great city in its own right. Nice food, amazing museums, the works.
