Is Love a Tender Thing?, Wednesday, 6/12
"So, where's the most common place to either pick someone up or take a date?" Dojima asked impishly as they all arrived in the Danger shop. "The clubs, of course!"
"You may not think it," Romeo said. "They may not be the kinds of places you like at all. But sometime, someone will likely take you to one, and passing the night dancing is far better than spending it in a corner in a sulk."
"And if you don't like your date? Dancing does not require talking," Dojima pointed out. "Maybe you'll find a new date. Maybe you'll find a new drink! Or a new band you enjoy. In any case, going to the club is something that will probably happen to you at some point, so today, we're going to practice."
"Of course, it will not always be love with everyone you meet on a night like this," Romeo said. "Nor even on most nights. Which is why this club has some patrons who may not be as pleasant as one would hope."
He smiled, perhaps a touch sadistically. "Try to have fun anyhow."

Re: THE CLUB! [6/12]
She was pretty and he was easy, so why not say hi?
"You having a good time?"
Re: THE CLUB! [6/12]
"I find myself having some fun, yes," she allowed. "The music is quite different from that to which I am accustomed, but it is not unpleasant. It certainly seems to suit this variety of dancing."
If by 'dancing' one meant 'gyrating against one's fellows in a clearly obscene manner,' but she was getting slowly used to the somewhat looser standards of the present age.
She was still remarkably fond of trousers.

"Yeah, totally," he said. "You always talk that way? All smart and shit?"

She sipped her drink again before setting it aside. "My name is Thomasina," she introduced herself. "And yours?"
