Face was, wonder of wonders, awake, bright-eyed and bushy tailed, behind the desk.

Mostly because he'd gotten up early to listen to the radio in case anything interesting had happened during that three minute date business last night. What could he say, he liked gossip, especially when it didn't involve him.

"I... vaguely remember something of the kind last year," Cassandra said, and Maker, why was she suddenly blushing?

"Yeah, there was," Face said. "Though I went on my own last year." Which given how he'd made out with Mara there was for the best, really.

"So did I, I believe," Cassandra said. Wait... was he hinting at something? "Ah. I'm sure."

Yes, yes he was hinting at something. "I don't suppose you'd care to go together this time around?"

One would have thought she would have assumed that he'd ask, and yet it still came as a surprise.

"Yes!" she exclaimed.

Beat.

"... Pretend that came out at a dignified volume."

"Of course," Face said, then grinned, like a sap. "It'll be fun. Romantic."

Yeah, he didn't know Isabela was doing the decorating.

Cassandra beamed back.

Shy at first, then full blast.
