[companioning]

That's a good way of going about things. Perhaps if you ask nicely and maybe tell me your name... I might be persuaded to actually send you some pictures so there's no need to feel remotely jealous.

[alwayskayaking]

My name is Tim Stoker. And may I please have the name of the beautiful angel that has graced my phone? Although I am happy to label this number as Heavenly Angel in my phone if you prefer not to share.

[companioning]

Well, Tim Stoker, it's lovely to make your acquaintance. And as nice as that sounds to be labelled such a way, my name is Inara Serra.

[alwayskayaking]

Inara Serra. I didn't realize a name could be just as beautiful as a picture.

[companioning]

If I didn't know better, I'd think that you were trying to seduce me. Though, I admit, I might be disappointed if that wasn't the case.

[alwayskayaking]

Then I see no reason to disappoint you. I am, however, glad to hear that it's working.

Working enough to possibly meet in person?

[companioning]

I think it might be working just enough for that. Do you have an idea where this meeting might take place?

[alwayskayaking]

There are a few places I can think of. Depends on if you're the type of girl who enjoys a wild club or a more quiet location like say dinner?

[companioning]

Unfortunately I am not one for a wild club. But, I would very much enjoy a quiet dinner.

[alwayskayaking]

I'd be happy to cook for us. I'm not chef, but I've had a few classes. Got a favorite meal?

[companioning]

You cook? How marvelous. I suppose I quite like roast duck or chicken, both are delicious.

[alwayskayaking]

I haven't done much with duck before, but I can make a really good roast chicken. Or so I've been told. Although there is a chance that my friends are too nice to tell me otherwise.

[companioning]

Roast duck will be fantastic, I'm certain. And surely your friends would tell you the truth, I'm sure they wouldn't want you to be embarrassed if your cooking was horrible. I'll trust that they've told you the truth.

[alwayskayaking]

Well, you have my number now. Give me a call sometime and I will make you a feast.

[companioning]

Or... You can call me when you feel like having that feast.

[alwayskayaking]

Well, what are you doing tonight?

[companioning]

[She chuckles.]

Well, I had plans for a long and leisurely bath... But I suppose I can do that any other night.

[alwayskayaking]

Oh darn! You're offering to give up a nice bath like that to have dinner with me? I better make the best dinner I have ever made to make it worth your wild.

[companioning]

Aren't you lucky? [She chuckles.] But, truly. I wouldn't mind giving up a bath to spend time with someone as charming as you.

[alwayskayaking]

I'll send you my address. Come over around six? Should give me enough time to make sure I have everything I need and to cook you a meal fit for missing a bath for.

[companioning]

Now you have me excited. I'll be sure to be there promptly at six.

[alwayskayaking]

I will see you then.

[Tim will send over his address and he will make sure to start cooking right away. He's no five-star chef, but he still took some cooking lessons back home. So when the meal comes out of the oven it will be very succulant.

He will have the table set in some fancy dinnerware and he will even get dressed up for the occation. A nice light blue button down with a pair of black trousers. He's even gotten out a fairly decent bottle of wine as well to go with the meal. All ready for her arrival.]

[companioning]

[When Inara sets her device to the side, she is smiling because well, she's truly looking forward to the evening.

While she doesn't take a bath, she does clean up and sets out to ready herself for the evening. She dresses as she normally does, a pretty purple dress with pretty gold embroidery, a pair of strappy heels, and a matching silk shawl that she's draped around her bare shoulders. She's worn her hair down in loose curls and has put just enough makeup on to enhance but not enough so it's distracting.

Overall, she believes that she looks rather pretty, at least that is her intent.

She's right on time. And she checks to make sure she has the right address before she reaches out and knocks on the door.]

[alwayskayaking]

[Opening the door for her with a warm smile he welcomes her into his home.] Thank you for coming. I know you were giving up a lot to be here. [He will lead them to the dining room where he's had their meal prepared.] You'll have to tell me if it's too your liking so I can make it even better next time.

Care for some wine? I have both white and red. Personally I think either can pair well with chicken.

[companioning]

Thank you for inviting me. [She beams at him as they walk to the dining room. Her eyes widen a little seeing everything he's made and she looks over at him.]

I'm certain it's delicious, it all looks absolutely fantastic. But I think white sounds lovely for the evening.

[She takes a seat and looks up at him, really studying him for a moment. He's handsome, polite and can cook. She's rather impressed by him.]
