[waiting to be picked up outside her apartment, saving Hashirama the trouble of walking up five flights of stairs to her door since there's no elevator here. is wearing a simple little black dress, hugging her arms close and holding onto her clutch purse, feeling out of place looking so nice while people walk around so casually. isn't used to going on dates like this, but has been getting used to it, and of course has a mission tonight but that can wait... is looking forward to these little dates.]

[isn't as elegantly dress but at least he has a jacket unlike what he would regularly wear to work. as enjoyable as the smell of gun powder was to some people, not a good impression for a date so a quick shower and changed into this little ditty and he was all ready for the night. pulls up outside of the address given and parks his conservative car, a wide smile across his face.] You look... beautiful. [takes and hand kisses it like a gentleman would, stepping to the side and offering her arm to take.] Shall we leave then?

	I thought you promised when you were sober you'd be better at compliments. [teases, taking his arm when it's offered, staying close at his side.] Where are we headed? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	It's a surprise. You will just have to wait until we get there. [opens up the car door and waits for her to get in before closing it. gentlemen do that too. gets into the drivers side and starts heading to his secret location.] You aren't allergic to anything specific are you? [better clear bases on that one.] (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	[isn't the nicest car she's been in, but likes it. isn't a car fan anyway, so if it looks nice enough, then it's good enough, right?] Allergies...? Dairy, beef, poultry, seafood, peanuts, gluten, and several types of sucrose. [gives him a little shove. p-playful.] Kidding. No allergies at all. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

[was actually worried there.] I thought for a moment I was going to have to feel you bread sticks only but the gluten would have put that out. Then there will be nothing to worry about, and there will be no shellfish. I'm allergic and it's not pretty. [is nervous about this. hopes that she is going to like where he has picked.] It's not too far out but if I bored you, feel free to put the radio on.

	Do you get blisters and all swollen in the face? [asks casually, looking around the interior of the car curiously, then back to him.] You should have more confidence. [gives a little rub to his back. not too much that you become a smug, uncaring person, mind you.] Aren't men supposed to be cocky when they're with a pretty woman? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	That and I can't breathe. Ambulance or death. Found it out the hard way as a kid. [taps fingers against the steering wheel while contemplating that.] I've been out of the dating game for a while and I'm not as young as I used to be. The cocky part dulls down when you get older.

	Don't make excuses. What if another guy hits on me? ... I guess it is too soon for me to ask you to defend my honor. I think men think women are too complicated, when deep down all we want is a hero and a bouquet of flowers. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	It is never too early to defends a woman's honor if it is unwanted attention. Men these days are too eager and take everything as a sign of being sexual. A woman doesn't deserve to be treated like that. But something tells me that you could defend yourself. I don't know why, it's just a feeling I get. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	If I didn't know how to defend myself, think I could survive in a city like this? I just... grew up somewhere where I had to know how to be strong. [enough of that talk!] So that means if you cop a feel too soon, I might pop you in the jaw. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	As an officer, I will have to ask all the important questions before attempting to make a move such as, is it okay to give you a kiss next time we meet to say hello. Nothing will be missed out. I will clear everything by you until the romance is completely gone. [chuckles cause yeah that is the extreme but you can't be too sure these days as well.] (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Rotting flesh. To attract carrion beetles and flies. Most flowers use bees and butterflies to pollinate, but not these. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I understand that. It's good to have something to strive for, something to look forward to after it is all done. I don't know what that will be for me yet. Who knows, I might get bored. [laughs, not that it's funny.] (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
