Briefly, there was an expression on Julianna's face. Entirely feline, and easy to miss if you weren't paying attention. With her ears already pointed upwards, there was a curl to her mouth that looked like what it meant when the metaphorical cat got the metaphorical cream. She had felt the tension of his arm and took note of how easily he lifted her from the laminated settee. The longer sleeves of his button down kept her from ogling his biceps, which she absolutely would have done otherwise.
He was still holding her hand, gazing down at her in some sort of way. Seconds passed like elongated minutes, and the way her pupils had gone wide and dark, like a housecat spotting it's favorite toy. Julianna looked away from his first, prompting him to spin her around and direct her towards the exit.
"I've never been there," she admitted. Julianna didn't mind making an appearance at the occasional bar or house party, but night clubs had never really been her scene.
Outside, the chilly autumnal weather that most found so appealing bit into Julianna's skin. She had always been susceptible to the cold. More so than the average. Growing up on a sunny subtropical archipelago had spoiled her. Julianna wondered if they would be walking to the club, if it was downtown it was entirely likely. the historic space lent well to casual strolling and he didn't appear to be leading her towards his car. Her tail fluffed up big, and curled against the small of her back. She crossed her arms over her chest in an attempt to keep warm as goose bumps appeared on her skin, but she didn't complain.
"Uhm." Julianna looked down at the toes of her boots, watching them cross over the old cobblestones, hesitating in answering his question. She suddenly felt tongue-tied, and the inexplicable need to impress him. Not a great combination. "Well, you know. I read? Maeve and I like to shop." She hummed thoughtfully. "I'm just really focused on school right now. Maeve dragged me out here. I like movies, museums. Just the...typical things. I guess I'm not that exciting." She ended with a self-conscious sounding laugh.

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
