--"Raine Sage. I can't reach the console right now. If it's an emergency, don't wait to get a hold of me, keep moving. I'm sure I'll hear about it soon. If not, leave a message and I'll contact you when I can."

Raine, do you have plans for the 14th?

[ruinsprofessor]

Not specifically, no.

[What she had been planning was to throw herself into work and ignore the Foreigner-generated festivities.]

Why do you ask?

[edgeoftheknife]

I was wondering if you might want to go out to dinner with me? Since we're both incredibly attractive and currently unaccompanied.

['Unaccompanied' is the best word he can think of. The least painful one, at least. And he's really hoping Raine knows him well enough by now to know that he's not actually hitting on her.]

[ruinsprofessor]

[Unaccompanied is a kind way to put it. And she knows Erskine isn't going to hit on her when she's still wearing her wedding-ring. They're both still very attached, even if... unaccompanied.]

I don't see why not. I'd like that. Did you have a place in mind?

[edgeoftheknife]

I'm still looking around. Something fancy and expensive, preferably. I'm open to suggestions :)

[ruinsprofessor]

I may have a few thoughts. I'll send you a name or two, if you like.

[edgeoftheknife]

Perfect. After you do that I'll make the arrangements and let you know.

[ruinsprofessor]

All right. I'll look forward to it.
