Probably for the best. You look like you'd keel over if you tried.
[ Not that she's a dancer herself except in private quarters, but. She's just amused imagining it. Either way, she enjoys her mochi, ears wiggling visibly in delight at the flavour and tail swaying eagerly. ]
You're not half bad for company, Selkie. Maybe next time you can pick where we go. Or we could crash another performance!
[ Oh yes, there's the possibility of a next time. She turns to face him, eyes twinkling in amusement. ]
You must have some hobbies to fill your time, right?
[ She's amused in her sarcasm, pretend fanning herself with her hand. Though, his question makes her ears perk up. ]
You know, though, there actually is. The Academy here holds regular debates, and the hospital I work at also has a science forum for folks. Didn't think these colourful folks were into it, what with the Moonlacing and all-
[ She beams up at him, exuberant all over. ]
Do you want to go to some?! I'm no scholar, but I can certainly put up an argument!
[ It just gets interestingly chaotic when the smarter folks discuss things and she's there for it. ]
[ Why is she even humouring the Garlean, anyway? She's either bored or desperate for a distraction, but she has to admit, the evening's been pretty pleasant despite it. The food helps, at least. ]
Sounds like a date, Selkie.
[ She chuckles, before circling around in front of him. ]
Maybe next time, you can tell me about what you actually do. Haven't really run into any scholarly Garleans. Lots of scientific and engineering types, now.
[ Some she wants to punch in the face, but that's neither here or there. ]
Anyroad, it's late and I didn't become this cute without my beauty naps. Even if it is dark- [ Prime Keeper hours. ] Need any help getting back to where you live? You can decorate it pretty easily you know!
[He shrugs, unconcerned. She can call it what she likes, it matters little.]
Perhaps I will tell you, but I think it would be more fun for you to work it out on your own.
[He can't help but smile at the thought.]
Well, I'll thank you for the tour and dining and bid you goodnight. I've not gone so feeble-minded to need an escort home. I'm sure I will manage to make it more suitable in time, one way or another.
Don't get too excited too fast, the build-up's what makes the wait fun.
[ She gives him a light roll of her eyes at those words, but with a shake of her head, she waves a hand. ]
All I can tell right now is that you're some sort of bored big shot. Probably in a good position, back home- don't know how much your "third eye" counts for that, but.
[ She shrugs, stepping back and giving him a playful light bow, hand to her chest. ]
More to talk about when we meet again. Have to make sure you're not going and getting yourself into trouble, aye? Oh, and try not to die here. Even an immortal can't escape death in this place, apparently.
[ A pity to have learnt that about her friends who ought to have been- but, she chuckles and raises a hand. ]
Have some supplies to pick up, so if you end up lost, there's always this.
[ She taps the wrist-device she has on, but he'd probably know how to use one better than her. ]

[He looks distinctly untouched.]
I have hobbies enough, theater being but one of them... Whether or not I can indulge in them here remains to be seen.
[He will, for the moment, make no commentary on the subject of company.]
Is there are forum for civilized debate?

[He is actually sincere about that at least, a thoughtful look on his face.]
I've no plans to seek it out just now, but, yes, I would not object to you accompanying me at some later date.

Oh my. I will endeavor not to be killed, then.
[He finds he means it, too, as he isn't sure how he would even manage to take a new host if that too was affected by this Chroma system.]
Until next time.
[He turns and walks away, giving her a loose-wristed overhead wave as he goes.]
