<img style="avatar" src="http://i.imgur.com/ShCSJDw.jpg" style="max-width:25%;float:left;margin:0 18px;]All things considered Nova was playing a role. Acting out the part of Fancy-Stripper on a Not-So-Fancy end of a lunar colony called for keeping up certain appearances. Hence, the fancy café, with it's crystalline flutes and crisp, white tablecloths.
Transitioning from a corporate solider who would camp out in a sniper hole for two days, to a woman that only showered with the accompaniment of soaps that smelled of long-extinct Terran flowers had not been an easy one. She'd fought the notion, quite adamantly, when Camdis had suggested it. A stripper of all things. At the time she could hardly imagine. Even though he was correct in pointing out that it was a really good cover, he neglected to take into account that she knew nothing about being a stripper. In which he told her: she would figure it out.
"I suppose it is. With all the arms and whatnot." Nova surprised herself by being able to make the joke without violet flames flaring across her cheeks. Just mentioning it bubbled up memories of hands on her face, and on her hips. "Anyway-" she cut herself off in a mumble, because Reyr was not privy to where her mind was wandering.
"Okay, fine. Fine. I will go first. All the while shoving appetizers in your direction until you're about to burst." Nova finally turned to the waiter, they looked slightly off-put by her over-sized sunglasses and Cheshire cat grin. And probably the way she'd waltzed in with the Martian behind her as if she owned the place. How much of her high class nature was still an act, could often be called into question. "A Campari and soda with lime, please. Oh, and one of those mozzarella bruschetta." The server just sort of shuffled off with a nod that was sort of awkward, having not gotten a word in edgewise. Clearly, not used to feeling a bit useless.
"I think it's cuuute," she lilts, sweetly, about the font with light laughter. She had opened her own menu, but never really looked at it. The things Nova could actually eat were strange, and somewhat unvaried. She ate mostly fatty proteins and vegetables, since her body didn't use carbohydrates or sugars. Anything that contained an abundance of either ended up tasting horrible.
"Anyway," she settled back in her chair, a bit giddy. "His name is Ixaaliot, and he was a lawyer, but he retired. I don't really know what he does now, though…" she tapped an index finger against her bottom lip, thoughtfully. "But! We went on a date last night!" This news may or may not have needed the emphasis of jazz hands, but it got them anyway.

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.
