Who: Liir and Lady Heather
What: Dinner
Where: The lobby to...
When: Wednesday evening
Rating: PG

Liir hadn't had anything to dress in, of course, but he did have his training. Of course, the military precision wasn't the helpful part, but the lessons that'd come during his time in the military, the ones he'd learned mostly by watching...

How to step, how to smile, how to wear his hair to thrill the ladies on the pavement. That he put to reasonable use as he had to make the best of, well, an unfortunate situation, at the very least. And she deserved the effort, at least, if she was going to cover his meal for no other reason than finding his answers interesting.

As such, he was there early and slouching attractively, unsure of what might await him.

	"The lady treats, the lady choses," he said with a bow of his head. "And I'm not picky." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Surely you know what you like." She smirked a little, though, and flagged down a taxi with ease. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Said like someone who is truly used to having nothing," she observed, still smirking. She opens the door of the taxi so that he can get in first. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He slipped in without complaint and made his way over to the left so she could get in as well. "That sounds about right," he said once she was in. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Heather nodded. "I assumed. Per Se, please." The cabbie looked surprised, but she waved a hand and then looked thoughtful. "We'll have to get you a jacket, but that's no matter. Where is it that you come from?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I don't suppose you'll be surprised if I should say Oz," he said, "or rather, not from here at all." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She arched a brow. "Surprised? Quite, actually. I read many of the books in my childhood." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	not_broomboy 2008-10-22 11:54 pm UTC (link)
	He blinked. "Books?" He was now a bit lost. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dominates 2008-10-22 11:58 pm UTC (link)
	"I'll keep the details at bay for your sanity. I can only imagine what they got wrong." She didn't want to think about what a book about her would be like. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He considered who he'd grown up with. "They probably didn't mention me," he said with a brief smirk. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"All the better. That way they can't ruin your character." No, really. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"My character is thoroughly ruined anyway," he said with a faint smile. He might as well, after all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I very highly doubt as much." The cab ride isn't long; soon she's stepping out and paying the cabbie. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	not_broomboy 2008-10-24 09:50 pm UTC (link)
	He held the door for her and offered his hand. "You haven't known me long." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"That should tell you more about yourself than about me," she muses absently, taking his hand and nodding to the entrance of the restaurant. The first thing she does is head to the 'rentals' area to get Liir a proper jacket. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	not_broomboy 2008-10-24 09:53 pm UTC (link)
	"I'm sorry," he said as they came to the rental area. "If I'd known... well, there's nothing I could have done, but I am sorry." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Heather arches a brow.

"You have no reason to be sorry. If I had suspected you had a proper dinner jacket, I would have suggested you wear it -- but as you mentioned you didn't have much here, I had assumed renting would be the easiest." A little chatting with the man who's handing out the jackets gets her half price, anyway.

She ends up handing Liir a black dinner jacket with dark emerald pinstripes.

To match his eyes, of course.

	It suits him, obviously. "Thank you, then," he said with a bow of his head before gesturing for her to lead on. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dominates 2008-10-24 09:59 pm UTC (link)
	"Of course." They're led to a rather nice table and Heather pulls out her own chair to sit down. "Do you drink wine?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	not_broomboy 2008-10-24 10:16 pm UTC (link)
	"Watered down," he said with a faint wince. "Alcohol has quite an effect on me," he admitted. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dominates 2008-10-24 10:19 pm UTC (link)
	"Perhaps by the glass, then, rather than the bottle." She doesn't want him to get terribly ill or anything of the sort, after all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	not_broomboy 2008-10-24 10:30 pm UTC (link)
	"By the sip," he said carefully before nodding to her. "My apologies if you were looking for someone to drink with you." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dominates 2008-10-24 10:31 pm UTC (link)
	And Heather laughs. "More often than not I limit myself to one drink. Professional interest and all." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I wouldn't presume to know," he said with a bow of his head as he considered the menu. There was the standard bill of fare in that he was going to eat what came... but he was surprised at the decadence of the dishes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
