RP: Dinner and a lack of dancing.
Who: Richard Summerby and Luna Lovegood
What: They're going to dinner in India
Where: Delhi India
When: Saturday night
Rating: SFW

A night out seemed to be just what Luna needed. She'd been doing nothing but being at work and being at home to take care of her father for the past couple of days. A really long couple of days. And she hadn't been getting a whole lot of sleep either. Today though she made sure that she was able to make sure that her father was well looked after and agreed to go out with Richard to eat. The fact that they were getting out of the country to do so was a plus. She'd never been out of the country just to have dinner and possibly go dancing. It was going to be a rare treat. If she didn't make a fool out of herself anyway.

She was dressed quite conservatively for her. Of course for Luna Lovegood that was still a bit over the top. Most of her dress matched, but her shoes didn't and her jewelry was still out there. The pattern was a bit off as well. It was just enough her that she felt good, but still wasn't going to make anyone stare at her in wonder. Hopefully. Either way she would ignore stares, since she was good at that. After leaving her father in the care of one of his friends so they could play pinochle or what have you.

When there was a knock at the door, she went to answer it with a smile. Hopefully there wouldn't be too much embarrassment if they danced. She liked dancing. But yeah she was bad.

"Hello, Richard!" she greeted as she opened the door. "Ready to go."

Oh good. Food. It smelled wonderful.

"I never thought that we would be. I imagine if you were interested in me, you would tell me." Wasn't that what people did? "This is just friends having dinner. Don't worry." She didn't think he was worrying, but she wanted to assure him that she wasn't thinking that this was something that it wasn't. Luna didn't feel any romance in the air. And she didn't want to go on her first date with a guy who wasn't actually interested in her. Maybe it was naive, but she wanted it to mean something. After all she had waited this long.

She started to eat, trying not to get it all over herself or make herself look too foolish. "Thank you for saying so, Richard." She did appreciate it when people didn't find her so odd that they didn't want to associate with her. "All of that is starting to change though. At least I hope so. For the better. And you won't hear me complaining about anyone not doing things the way they're supposed to be done. It's all a bunch of nonsense if you ask me." And that was saying something.

Luna tilted her head as if she had to think about that question. "No, they don't call me names. That's all that matters. I've never cared what other people think. If people don't like me, that's their problem." She just didn't want it to mean that she was going to wind up alone.
