Handsome and tall?

[ She leans an elbow on the table, peering up at him with a smirk. ]

I suppose. If you go for that type.

[supersoldier]

[Flattery usually slides right off of his shoulders. But with Ciri, it earns her a look of equal amusement.]

You're more discerning, are you?

[wiedzminka]

Or less discerning.

[ She teases, smirk widening. ]

[supersoldier]

[Wow. Sephiroth actually scoffs out a laugh.]

You do know how to make a man feel very special.

[wiedzminka]

That's what you deserve, after that dopey line at the Lunar Pond.

[ Ciri gives him a little kick under the table, entirely to tease, and not at all hard. ]

What was it? "I wouldn't not want to"?

Classic.

[supersoldier]

[Oh... Embarrassment, part two. He's looking at his tankard now, inspecting the drink within. How interesting.]

You caught me off guard. I don't-

[Glances back up at her.]

It's not like anyone ever taught me how to... reply to a- [Another awkward pause.] -proposition.

[help]

[wiedzminka]

A proposition!

[ She gasps in mock affront. ]

Seriously?

[ That does make her feel quite self-conscious, but she's a little better at hiding it than he is, apparently. Ciri takes another drink too, peering at him through her lashes over the rim in a way that is half-hiding her blush, and half intentionally flirty. ]

You know... when we're both back in the city... we should meet up. Take a night off. You can come over. Grab some food, steal Jaskier's wine.

[ After all, Julie had promised to get Geralt and Jaskier to clear out. Ciri knows all she has to do is tell her when. ]

[supersoldier]

[Even her faux offense makes him a little more self-conscious, too. Should he have called it something else? Probably.

He catches her glance, and while Sephiroth is not prone to blushing, how he tosses his look aside again is telling.]

Food and stolen wine. I'd enjoy that.

[A long night of no obligations and spending that time with Ciri alone. His imagination does wander, but he keeps it tamped down, somehow.]

Let's plan on it.

[wiedzminka]

[ Ciri beams, excited. ]

It's a date.
