In a dancehall; Nice, French Republic:
Zoe (to Felix): Dance with me, Felix. Please?
Felix (to Zoe): Heh. I would love to. Come here, pretty lady.
Zoe (to Felix): Heh. You seem to have an admirer at the bar, sexy man. Should I be jealous? ;-p
Felix (to Zoe): Heh heh. In that dress? Not in the slightest.
Zoe (to Felix): Does that mean you like it? Hari gave it to me. She said it was her lucky dress... Whatever that means.
Felix (to Zoe): I do. And, I'm not the only one. You've got your own admirers, you know.
Zoe (to Felix): Store detectives... :-p
Felix (to Zoe): Store detectives? Ha ha ha! Hardly. I still say your Momma and Poppa only adopt attractive stray children. ;-) And I think I could take a guess or two about why that dress made Hari feel lucky.
Zoe (to Felix): Oh really? Care to share?
Felix (to Zoe): Heh. No. I don't think so. I think I'll keep you wondering. At least until later...
Zoe (to Felix): Heh. I'm intrigued by this talk of later... And, why is that guy staring at us?
Felix (to Zoe): ...I'm not sure, and I'm not sure I like it. Do you know him?
Zoe (to Felix): Nope. Never seen him before.
Felix (to Zoe): ... Judging by the scowl on his face, I don't think I'd care to get to know him. Come along, pretty lady. Let's be elsewhere.
Zoe (to Felix): Yeah. You're probably right.
A few minutes later, on the street:
Felix (to Zoe): He isn't following us, is he?
Zoe (to Felix): No, but I think someone else is... Take my hand.
Felix (to Zoe): Of course ...
Zoe (to Felix): Should we head to the casino or to the Sister?
Felix (to Zoe): ...We'll have backup at the casino, but isn't there an inhibitor field? The Sister might be a bit easier on you...
Zoe (to Felix): Yeah, the Sister would be easier... Is it all clear?
Felix (to Zoe): Hold on... Come closer for a moment. Closer. Heh... Yes, I think the coast is clear.
Zoe (to Felix): Hmmm? Sorry. I was distracted by your bare chest. Heh. Do you even own a whole shirt?
Felix (to Zoe): Heh. Of course I do, but why bother when it's so much easier to get your attention this way? I believe we were leaving...
Zoe (to Felix): Oh right...
A moment later, onboard the Wicked Sister:
Zoe (to Felix): Oof... Here we are...
Felix (to Zoe): Zoe? ... Are you alright, pretty lady?
Zoe (to Felix): Yeah. Sorry, I was just thinking... I was wondering who those jerks were.
Felix (to Zoe): ...Me too. Come on, pretty lady. Let's spend the night someplace else. Might not be a bad thing to be hard to find for awhile.
Zoe (to Felix): We can head to our apartment in West Piedmont. I'll leave Victor a note, first.
A few minutes later:
Felix (to Zoe): All set?
Zoe (to Felix): Yep. Come on, sexy man.
