[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.]

	I can understand. A job like that... Does a detective rank higher than a police officer? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	codefive 2010-06-16 01:35 pm UTC (link)
	It does. Normal officers are trained in the required training to handle most normal situations you will come across. You can stay like that until the day you retire, or you can go onto high ranks but in doing so, you have to complete extra training, degrees, put more work into it. To explain it simpler, they are general, we are specialized. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	That someone was a very smart person. [rubs shoulder and softly smiles.] I like hearing these thoughts that you have even if they were shared by someone else. You don't just agree to everything, you will put your thoughts and feelings into what you say. I really respect that. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	[he is very smart, yes... and shouldn't get props for parroting what someone else said, but she does agree with it, so it's okay right?] ...

	You are going to have to hold out for that a little while longer. [guides back to the chairs and table, pulling out her chair and pushes her in within comfortable distance.] I'll be one moment.

	[looks around, wondering how long he planned this... having a dinner all ready and everything, driving it out here, then driving back to pick her up. that's a lot of money and effort... he's really serious, isn't he? zones out while looking over at the gardens, letting her thoughts wander.] (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

[not everything is planned perfectly, the food took a bit of trouble and is not at all presentable in tupperwear containers but it was hard to keep a plate there warm the time it took for them to arrive. thankfully these are fresh and still warm with the help of the wife of one of his old team members that died in the line of duty. he still kept in contact with her and was more than happy to do this for him.]

Sorry, there is no plates, only plastic forks. You will have to pick it out of the container. [and hopefully they will be something Konan would eat. salad, chicken and mushroom quiche and something special for dessert but that would come later.] This is not the romantic part but it does come with a bottle of wine too. [pulls out two plastic cups and puts them on the table, uncorking the top and pouring a drink of both of them.]

[looks over the display, finding it charming. has only had a few romantic dinners, or dinners with a partner, and it wasn't exactly romantic... more the perfect setting, but it felt so sterile. this isn't as expensive or lavish, but... likes it. picks up her plastic glass of wine, holding it up to examine it for a moment, then laughs softly, bringing a hand up to cover her mouth.]

	[phew. is still relieved.] A couple of days. I can't take the credit for the food, I had a lovely woman cook it for me but the rest of it... I wanted something personal than a sit down served by people. Somewhere quiet were we can get to know each other better. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
