Blind date time

[ A blind date, on Valentine's Day, fantastic...It would have been quite unnerving if it hadn't been Valentines Day, but really. She was still a bit worried, maybe she should duck out...But Zynnic had already been sitting in the restaurant-like room for a while now, because she'd been early, and the dressing room...Well, it had decided not to let her leave. Besides, it was her birthday, too today, so maybe she should just let the DR treat her to dinner, anyways, tonight. A silly grin crossed the catgirls features, before she slumped her face on the table. It was boring to just wait. Hopefully he'd get there soon...]

[Nocturne slipped into the seat across from her, smiling sheepishly.]

Sorry I'm late; had trouble finding the place. You must be my date tonight.

[For once he's dressed nicely instead of in the bad Hawaiian shirts he tends to wear. He's a little iffy about this blind date thing, but if the room wants him to do something for Valentine's Day he may as well go along with it; it's likely to force him into it one way or another if he doesn't.]

[Zynnic quickly sits up, and offers Nocturne a cheerful smile. Honestly, she shouldn't have put her face on the table cloth, it was kind of awkward already. She scratched lightly behind her left ear, and nodded.]

Ah! It's okay!

[She knows about the doubles, and everything, but is still somewhat shocked to see a Demyx sitting in front of her. Do give her a moment to collect her thoughts.]

Oh! I'm Zynnic, it's nice to meet you!

[She remembers her manners, after staring at him for a moment, and offers a nervous smile.]

[He smiles back at her, also trying not to stare - though in his case it would be her ears he's trying not to stare at.]

Nice to meet you, too, Zynnic. Call me Nocturne.

[If she asks why, he's just going to give his cop-out 'helps tell me apart' explanation, rather than going into the real reasons.]

[Zynnic totally forgot that her cat ears are very uncharacteristic, and somewhat unnerving to some people, and just smiles brightly, when she notices him staring at them.]

Ah, nice to meet you, Nocturne!

[She's grinning, and twitches her ears a bit.]

They're real. Want to touch them?

[He flushes a little and shakes his head.]

Sorry. Don't see many people with them, that's all.

[Still offering him a big smile, before blinking.]

Well, now. I guess there are menus on the table...Did you have anything you wanted to eat?

[She smiles, and looks back at Nocturne, luckily she isn't all that curious about why he goes by Nocturne, she's not very pushy about personal things, anyways, being the polite kitty, she is.]

I don't know, I've never eaten here before.

[He picks up the menu and looks over it.]

What were you getting?

[Giving a grin, she nods, before thinking a moment, trying to remember what the meal was called, she remembers it, apparently, before speaking up.]

The Salmon Florentine. It sounds delicious!

[She's grinning broadly, there's just way too much cheerfulness and energy in her.]

Hmm, you know, that sounds pretty good. I think I'll have that, too. [He can't help smiling a little; she's contagious.]

[Zynnic nods, and the menus disappear from their hands, nearly startling Zynnic a little too much, and she almost falls backwards in her chair.] A-Ack!

[Smiling nervously, she catches her balance, and gives Nocturne a big smile.]

At least it isn't too bad, being here with you, instead of someone else.

[Zynnic grins, as the food appears in front of them, apparently the DR is a quick cooker!]

Hm? Oh, you know me in your world?

[That seems to be the obvious explanation for that comment. He smiles just a little as the food poofs into existence on the table.]

Nice trick.

[Zynnic nods, still smiling.]

Mhm. I work under the Demyx in my world. [Nod, nod.] He's Number IX, if I remember correctly...

[She doesn't really seem the type to get mixed up with an Organization liket hat, but then again, she is kind of weird. She grins a bit, picking up her fork, and digging in.]

Hm? That wasn't me...I think it's the Dressing Room. But 'M not positive...[Taps her chin with her free hand.]

... Really? You don't, uh, really seem like a Nobody.

[he shrugs] Oh, I was just sort of commenting. I mean, if you'd done it you wouldn't have jumped when the menus disappeared, right?

[She had started to dig into the salmon Florentine, mostly the salmon, when he said she didn't seem like a Nobody, and nearly choked. She coughs a minute, dropping her fork, and catches her breath.]

Aah...Well, that's a kind of a long story...!

[She smiles nervously, quickly grabbing for her napkin. She's not too good at lying, so if he does end up pushing the subject, she'll likely fail and tell him the truth. She nods.]

Ah, yeah...Sorry. I didn't mean to jump to blaming you...

[He raises an eyebrow at that - he may be lazy, and occasionally frivolous, but he isn't stupid. But he doesn't say anything just yet.]

It's okay, it was kind of easy to misinterpret.

[He starts eating his, a little more slowly.]

[It really is quite a long story, at least for her, but she's not going to admit it without a question to answer. She isn't very good at not rambling though.]

Y-Yeah...

[She somewhat slows down her fast pace, because she doesn't want to choke, again. The fish is her favorite part, and soon it's pretty much all gone, so she goes for the fettuccine noodles.]

[Color him not surprised that her fish disappears first. He may or may not ask to hear the story later; depends on how things are going at the time.]

[She's not willing to eat the spinach, even though it tastes alright. She just doesn't like the veggies.

She's just so distracted by the food, that she doesn't really notice the Sniper Heartless that just popped into the room, and is obviously looking around for a target.

Well, it found one, and is aiming one of those red arrows right at him. It fires...Just as Zynnic stands up, for...Err...She's not sure why she stood up, so randomly, but she felt the need to, and is thwacked right in the back of the head by the arrow.]

O-Oww!
[Rubbing her head doesn't help that much, and the Heartless is aiming another arrow at Nocturne, who just so happens to be who Zynnic is staring at right now.]

...A-Aaah....

[Blushing. Yes, brightly, and she's totally not sure what to do now.]

[And Nocturne looks up just in time to see that arrow headed right for the center of his forehead. He ducks, and throws a blast of water at the Sniper. Sadly, it dodges and makes a break for it.

He straightens up, glancing over at Zynnic.]

Sorry; those things have been around all month. Uh, you okay?

J-Just...Just fine!

[Zynnic is bright red, as she slinks back down into her seat, and covers her bright red cheeks, quickly with her hands.]

Nuthin's wrong!

Okay, if you're sure... sometimes those arrows do weird things. You aren't hurt, are you?

[Zynnic is shaking her head no, in a quite enthusiastic manner.]

N-No! I-I'm fine, really!

[She squeaked, with a nervous smile again, quickly looking down at her food, not feeling hungry any longer, and she could feel her heart pounding harder and harder...What was this feeling...?]

Well, alright...

[He is very clearly not buying it, but goes back to eating.]

[She's trying not to look at him, because that just makes her heart pound faster. Zynnic isn't sure what this feeling is, as she's never really been in love with someone before....]

It....Hit me with an arrow...It kinda hurt, tha-that's all!

[Zynnic's voice is totally squeaking now.]

... Your voice is going kind of strange. Is that normal for getting hit in the head?
