[quote][b]Solenis (Jan 01, 2005 03:57 p.m.):[/b] "I'm going to look this time. You can look too. No one will even know. Can't do any harm, us looking and them not knowing. Not much harm, right?" It was the same conversation they always had, and the same question she always asked, and he knew his part in this play by heart. When she smiled at him it was his cue to shake his head, and when her smile turned even more beguiling, it was his role to refuse her, as he always did. "No, Mal." "You have [i]no[/i] sense of adventure," she said disdainfully, scowling into the bottom of her mug before finishing off the last swallow. "You can stay behind for all I care. One of the ships can have you. I'll make this run myself. Lahkis isn't that far away. A month. I can't remember the last time I had a month out of your watch. And I can keep the entire fee for myself, too, 'stead of having to share with the likes of you." Reno knew better than to take any of her threats seriously, and wordlessly offered her the rest of his drink to pacify her. She frowned at him, but by the time she'd drank her way through the mug she was mostly done with her sulking, and her attention had shifted to other things. "Quiet lads in here tonight," she sighed, with a hint of longing, and he shook his head. The night before a run began was the worst time for them. They were both restless, Mal especially, and he always had his work cut out for him, keeping her out of trouble. Now she was busy looking around the bar, eyeing the ones she knew weren't regulars here, and it was Reno's turn to sigh. She smirked at him, but got up anyway. "Need a drink." He watched her cut a swathe through the crowd as she made her way to the bar, sidestepping and elbowing until she was out of his sight, and he sighed again.[/quote]
