Afternoon Ice Cream Outing
If there was anything Alisa knew about Argo, it was that he was a loyal, trustworthy friend... and he had an incredible with chocolate ice cream. She needed someone to talk to, and he was there. With a charming smile, Alisa had managed to get Argo to come with her to an ice cream parlor in the French Quarter... one that did not have a bunch of kids running about to drive them nuts. She ordered him his favorite chocolate ice cream, and she got herself a cup of vanilla ice cream with sprinkles.

Alisa was still dressed in her work clothes, a pair of black army boots, blue, baggy cargo pants, and a black tank top with a bra underneath. She seemed to have a variation of the same outfit, so she would never get bored. It was a whole new thing to have a wardrobe of her own, and she planned on taking advantage of that! She just hoped Nick did not mind that she took an early break, but she needed someone to talk to... other than him.

"T'anks for comin' wit' me, Argo. Ah jus'... well... ah sorta needed a good friend to talk to." Alisa smiled, putting her spoon into her ice cream and then taking a bit of it. She never really had ice cream until she and Ennie lived on their own. It was a big treat for her, though she was not much of a sweet tooth. "Dis place 'as some o' de best ice cream in de quarter! T'ink you'll like it!"

	"Dat's usually de best t'ing to do. Jus' go wit' de flow!" Alisa smiled, getting up from her seat and then pushing it back to the table, as it was when she arrived. "We can go for a walk. We can go shoppin' for stuff, but ah already got all dat ah need. We can go make out..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Argo rose to join her. "A walk doth sound most enjoyable," he said, deftly not answering the rest of the question. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"You totally ignored de rest' o' mah suggestions, didn' you?" Alisa feigned a pout as she folded her arms over her chest again and started to walk with Argo outside of the shop. The many jazz bands could be heard, as well as the busy crowds of tourists in the City. New Orleans was really a tourist City, year round. It never seemed to calm down and if it ever did, Alisa would be convinced that hell had frozen over!

	Argo grinned mirthfully. "I suppose I didst at that," he chuckled. He looked around, taking it all in. "Tis wonderful, this city," he said. "Never before hath I seen a city where so many seem dedicated to celebration!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Yeah... people from around de world come here. Even after Katrina, de party never died." She nudged Argo's ribs after he admitted he ignored her other suggestions. "Even when someone dies in de city, de Zulu band comes out, an' dere a small parade o' dancin' people an' a party for de dead. Even while dere coffin bein' taken to de cemetery. De city celebrates, life, death, an' everyt'ing in between!"

	Argo pretended to be injured by the nudge, briefly bending over. "Scant wonder I hath felt so at home here." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Well, ah guess our culture is much like yours. We party, we celebrate everyt'ing we can..." Alisa grinned as he feigned injury after she nudge him. this only made her giggle more. "Silly! Anywho... we got everyt'ing here... except legal prostitution. Dat ended in de 1920's. N'aw Orleans lost its' red light district at dat time... an' de only place in de United States dat still 'as dat is some small town in Nevada... outside o' Las Vegas." She blushed at her own knowledge of the City. Alisa then thought to herself that she spent far too much time in a library or with her nose in a book to know this stuff.

	Argo nodded. "I hath been to Vegas before, in mine travels of this country. 'tis a town like few others. And I spent a great deal of time in Los Angeles with the Defenders, before fate didst bring me here." He smiled. "I art glad it did, else I wouldst not have known the pleasure of thine company."

	"Stop tryin' ta make me blush!" She feigned a protest, looking up at Argo. "Ah only know dis city first hand an' no ot'er. Ah know everyt'ing from de good stuff to de seedy underbelly. Ah guess ah'm like a mini historian... or a gal who spent too much o' her life in a library. Take yah pick." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Knowledge be naught to be ashamed of, Alisa. I hath great respect for those who doth dare to descend into the depths of history and other great works." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Argo, why do you compliment me so much. Ah mean, as a friend, it feels a lil' over-board. Like... you compliment me as much as someone would like a girlfriend or sumt'ing." She raised a slender eyebrow, looking up at the taller man as they walked. "Ah mean it nice an' all... but ah seriously am non dat great!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	son_of_hercules 2010-04-23 10:37 pm UTC (link)
	Argo blushed a little. "Tis but my nature," he told her. "I be-th complimentary to a fault, at times." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	temperence 2010-04-23 11:52 pm UTC (link)
	"You compliment me anymore an' ah'm gonna grow a head as big as a pumpkin, maybe bigger! Ah won' be able to get t'rough doors!" She held her stomach, laughing rather hard at such a thought. "We'd need a wheel barrow for mah head! It would be sooo funny!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	son_of_hercules 2010-04-24 12:34 am UTC (link)
	Argo laughed, loud and booming at that. "If that doth occur, I shalt be happy to push thee about." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Oh? You'd push me about in a wheel barrow? You be such a man, Argo!" Alisa was still holding her sides as she kept laughing and walking with Argo. The two probably looked either drunk, or very merry. it was open to interpretation. "No chariot? Ah mean, dere so many fun t'ings we could do wit' one o' dem! Like race down de streets, be part o' de parade, 'ave a romantic trist..." She battered her eye lashes, looking up at Argo and then busting out laughing, again.

	Argo smiled mirthfully again and flexed a bicep. "Sadly, mine chariot doth be back in Olympus and be not easily claimethed," he said. "When next I visit mine home, so shalt I remember to bringth it back with me, and I shalt giveth thee a ride in it. This, doth I promise." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	temperence 2010-04-24 01:49 am UTC (link)
	"Can ah ask what kinda ride dat would be?" Alisa smirked, nudging Argo some. "Mon dieu, you are like stone! My flirtatious attitude an' seductive words seem to 'ave no effect on you!" She then pouted, placing her hands on her hips. "Ah don' get you. You go wit' floozies, but when it comes to me, you'd rather be friends! You doth confuse me, Argo!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Aye," Argo agreed, bowing his head slightly. "I doth confuse mineself as well. Were thee any other woman, Alisa, I wouldst take thee up upon thy flirtations."

"But we didst meet as friends, and friends I wouldst like to stay. I hath seldom called upon any 'floozie' a second time... and hath never maintained a relationship of that nature for long. Friends, I hath kept for longer... and I wouldst like to keep thee long in my heart."
