Where: Pancho's
Rating: Medium?

Ben was happy to meet the impressive warrior again, perhaps even looking forward to it. Valkyrie had been impressive in battle, and he couldn't help but admire her confidence. True, he had been somewhat isolated in town, save for his work with the other Force users who had come and gone from here, but he really was trying to branch out.

He'd been around Pancho's more lately. Carol knew him, at least, and the two had shared a few stories of their own. But it had been different. Carol was closed up about some things and clearly kept an emotional distance from others. He could feel it from her. Valkyrie was....different. More exposed. Strong, confident, but also open.

She fascinated him.

He sat at the bar, nursing a whiskey he'd ordered as he waited, staring at the glass and smiling when she entered, turning to nod to her. "Hello."

"You just?" Valkyrie's voice soft, partly because she had very much invaded Ben's space and party because she didn't want to interupt him exactly so much as nudge him along to the next thought. Her lips pulled into a very knowing smile.

"More private?" Her hand settled on his thigh. "Do you have somewhere more private in mind?" Taking Ben home with her seemed a little rude as it still was not her home. Nyx might have said otherwise, but she'd yet to fully accept it.

"Because I do believe I am going to kiss you again." She leaned in, teasing him more than anything. Though if he were to lean in just a little, the kiss would happen.

Poor Ben just nodded a bit numbly when Val asked if he had an idea, swallowing. "Yes....my place?" He hadn't done anything like this in a very, very long while. And suddenly it was all he could think about.

She leaned close and he wanted to close the distance. Instead, he pulled back and stumbled to his feet, grinning a little as he caught himself. "I mean if you want to...?"

She seemed to want to. She seemed to want to do a lot more than kiss. And Ben, at least drunk Ben, was into that.

Valkyrie smiled, liking the answer. Her fingers traced over his thigh, and they would have stayed there had he not left the stool as he did. Her brows rose, and she couldn't stop smiling as he was very adorably flustered. She had reached out to make sure that he didn't fall too far if he fell at all. He was drunk.

"Of course I want to." She claimed the third bottle they had started. "We will be taking this." She gave Carol a bit of a salute with the claimed bottle. "Thank you."

She pushed from the bar with bottle in hand. "Just in case you want a little more." If he didn't, she'd take it with her or leave it to share later. Depended on how the night went, didn't it?

"Lead the way, Ben," she laughed softly, taking the lead for the moment out of the bar.
