Date: 2013-07-20 12:23 am (UTC)Then let me prove it to you. Consider it an apology for all this unpleasantness.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-20 12:47 am (UTC)[ She smiled, and was glad he couldn't see the mess those apologies had left on her tearstreaked face.
Effie enjoyed being gracious, almost as much as she enjoyed sounding it. ]
Do you have a place in mind? I'm still not sure I believe you.
And I refuse to eat rat.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-20 01:05 am (UTC)A few. And none of them serve rat, I promise.
[...maybe. He's pretty sure. And if he's been served rat before, it tastes a lot like chicken.]

Date: 2013-07-20 01:19 am (UTC)[ Effie feels and sounds quite pleased with this turn of events. Not only did she escape a thoroughly uncomfortable conversation, she would soon have a positive reason to leave the squalor of her dwellings.
For all that she hated being cooped up indoors, the dirty and dangerous streets were an unpleasant alternative. If the restaurant was a diamond in the rough then maybe she would have a civilized escape and could ignore the constant bickering and negativity by drowning herself in dessert. She was desperate enough to sacrifice and inch or two of her waistline for a little edible comfort. ]
When and where? My schedule is rather... open for the time being.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-20 01:47 am (UTC)[No, really.
It only took him three and a half months to get someone to agree to a proper date, and all this after he made said date cry. He's obviously been going about this all wrong.]
The where is a surprise. As for the when, you choose. I'll build my schedule around you.

Date: 2013-07-20 02:06 am (UTC)Despite that, she was truly lonely and Saul was sadly the closest she had come to finding a friend or even an acquaintance since her arrival. Katniss and Peeta were always busy, and Haymitch in a drunken coma.
The warmth of his voice and consideration of his offer made up her mind for her. ]
I have no plans tomorrow evening.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-20 02:19 am (UTC)He sounds just as pleased as she does.]
Perfect. What room are you staying in? I'll come get you at 7.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-20 02:29 am (UTC)[ She leaves no room discussion. What Effie says in terms of time and schedule goes. Seven probably would have been just as well, but she enjoyed setting her own timeline out of habit. She did need to make herself presentable after all, and without a personal hair dresser or makeup artist to assist her perfection could not be rushed.
She couldn't help but be difficult to make up for her ease of agreement.]
(Insert info about where she is staying here) don't be late, I can't stand to be kept waiting.
And wear your nice suit.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-20 02:48 am (UTC)He likes that.
For whatever reason, he suddenly finds himself sitting up a little straighter, all smiles and pleasantness and obedience.]
Eight it'll be. On the dot.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-20 02:57 am (UTC)Goodnight Saul.
[ Always on her terms, and on her schedule. With that she bids him adieu. ]
no subject
Date: 2013-07-20 03:13 am (UTC)[The line goes dead before he can finish.
...yeah, he's just gonna go ahead and ignore 90% of that conversation and chalk this one up in the "win" column.]
