"So... can we do this again sometime?" The young man asked Petra as he was stepping out of her apartment.

"Oh sweetie..." She pinched one of his cheeks, holding a towel with her other hand. "You barely did it this time. Take care." She blows a kiss and shuts the door, sashaying her way back to the phone as she can see the slack-jawed shock in her mind. Daddy had slipped her the number of a friend's kid who was living in the city as well, and she owed her a get-together. Good to make more friends 'in the biz' as it were.

She dialed up Traya Smith.

	"A girl should always have time for boys." A pause. "Or girls. Whatever strikes your fancy really. Good that you've got stuff you're dedicated to though." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Traya made a face. "Definitely not. I already had my fill on mad scientists a long time ago." Having one for a "grandfather" did not help any. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Petra giggles as she takes the check. "You'd be a lot prettier in the goggles and lab-coat than Sivana or Luthor at least." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Mhm. Totally." She leaves cash for the check as she gets up, grabbing her coat. "Walk all over his elemental self." She winks, assuring Traya it's all in good fun. "Haven't had a girlfriend to pointlessly banter with for a while. Glad I called you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	tiny_tornado 2010-02-15 12:13 am UTC (link)
	"Me too," Traya replied. "I don't get to hang out with people nearly as much as I'd like to." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Petra tugs her out the door. "Come on then, the perfect pair of boots is waiting for me to fall in lust with them somewhere." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
