Summary; Greed takes the Sultana out to get her mind off her memories.
Log;

Greed stretched a bit, popping his joints loudly, before he knocked on the apartment door in front of him. He hoped he had given her enough time to get ready. Regular women could take awhile, but he had NO idea how much a member or royalty might need to gussy herself up.

"You there, Ananova? It's me, Greed. You about done?" he asked through the door. His attire was the same as usual. Leather pants and shoes, with a black belt, black undershirt, and fur-collared vest. Did he EVER wear anything else?

She smiled a little, sitting back. Her clouded mind had already begun to clear quite a bit.

"Oh, I don't know...I think I'd just like to meander about the town for a while."

"I certainly don't mind that at all."

Their dessert arrived shortly, at which point it was divided between them.

"Try a bite. I'm sure you'll see what I mean."

She forked a bite and looked at it with a queer eye. She had come to find that anything with the word 'fried' was less than promising.

"Let's hope you're right, Greed..."

Without another hesitation, Ananova let it into her mouth. A few short seconds of chewing, her eyebrows shot upwards.

"...this is..disgustingly delicious.."

"That's one way to put it," he said, taking a mouthful of dessert, "It's good stuff."

He hungrily scarfed down the richly flavored creation, licking his plate when it was finished.

"Very well, You were right. It's very good." She smiled, and ate her desert.

She tilted her head some, not yet finished when he cleared his plate. Greed certainly was a quirky one, and that was putting it lightly. But she liked that about him.

"I guess we'll go for a little walk after this to see what's goin' on in town. I hear there's a small fireworks show in the square. Nothin' fancy, but it might be nice to see."

"Really? That sounds wonderful! I remember traveling to China one summer..." She ate and swallowed her last bite of cake.

"I was still a youngish thing--we saw a celebration, I think for the New Year. The sky was so full of fireworks, it could have been daytime."

"Should be nice, then," he said, placing a wad of bills on the table, "That should cover everything. You ready?"

Ananova swallowed the last of her wine, and stood, flicking her scarf back around her neck.

"Aboslutely."

He looped his arm in hers and headed for the door.

"Off we go!"
