Mika grinned. “Oh, so I’ll fall asleep here, huh?” More at ease than Aili, it was a joke, though she decidedly wouldn’t be opposed to that actually happening. “What’s the movie? Or… is it a surprise?”

Aili continued to ride her wave of her excitement yet feared losing control of her words. “That would be.. acceptable”, she murmered through a sip of her wine. “It’s a classic, at least that’s what my grandpa always used to call it… You’ll see” After her hand lowered to put down her glass, rather than retracting it she leaned in to the table and extended her arm, resting her digits in Tandra’s vicinity.

“Sounds interesting. I can’t wait to see what you pick,” she said, and she placed her own hand near Aili’s, though not quite on, so they weren’t quite holding hands. “On that note, dinner was amazing, thank you. I could never prepare anything quite like that… even if you did just replicate them.” She said, smiling.

If it weren’t for Aili’s hand having become effectively rooted in place, she would have instinctively drawn it back and finished off her drinkto wet her parching throat. “Aw, thank you”, she reciprocated with grateful eyes, “but I’m sure you’re more than capable. Perhaps we could trial that… next time?”
