I think I'll need it after that, thanks.

[use_everything]

[It doesn't take long to find and bring a glass back.]

I may regret asking, but I will anyway... What was that about?

[keep_nothing]

[ She thanks him and sips with a smile still on her lips. ]

Just that you two are so similar. I swear, you military-minded men ...

[use_everything]

[He opens his mouth to protest. And closes it.

It's not that he doesn't have protests. It's more that he knows better.]

.. So... have you any objections?

[keep_nothing]

With Roy? If you recall, I'm the one who set you up on that surprise first mini-date at his bar.

[use_everything]

It was unlike you to be quite that late, yes.

[keep_nothing]

I was right on time with my own schedule, thank you very much. It as a good first meet though, right?

[use_everything]

... It was an enjoyable conversation.

[keep_nothing]

Full of military innuendo, I'm sure.

[use_everything]

Apparently, more than I had intended, but...

[keep_nothing]

[ She chuckles again while she takes another drink of water. ]

[use_everything]

Out of curiosity, is this number 15 or were you just looking to my tastes?

[keep_nothing]

15?

[use_everything]

Well. The way it was phrased was not particularly simple to achieve with two participants...

[keep_nothing]

Well, 15 could also lead to 27 too, so ...

[ She grins at him. ]

[use_everything]

I... hadn't considered that. How...?

[keep_nothing]

[ She raises her eyebrows. ] Oil.

[use_everything]

... Ah.

[He looks less scandalized and more very intensely interested.]

[keep_nothing]

Well, oil and a bit of rope, really, but only if you're not that flexible. Sounds like fun, doesn't it?

[use_everything]

Who is that flexible to begin with?

It sounds like a backache. Might be worth trying though.

[keep_nothing]

Younger people, mostly, or at least more enthusiastic. I've had that one on my list for a while, after all.

[use_everything]

I'll find out if there's interest, then.

[keep_nothing]

Good God, Aral, don't ask him that off the bat. First he has to be comfortable with being involved with more than one person.

[use_everything]

I hadn't intended immediately. Frankly, I need to speak with Allison before anything at all.

[keep_nothing]

[ Her expression brightens in surprise and something like pride for Aral figuring out that more conversations need to take place. ]

How do you think she'll take it?
