"What is it you love about her?" He asks quite seriously

"Are you kidding? She's classy and smart and she's so -nice-! I mean, she's kind and she thinks about me even when I'm not there.... if I could pick anyone in the whole wide world to be.... like, my grandmother? It would be her."

A smile at that "Well, sometimes wishes come true"

"I mean, I never had a grandmother but that's what I imagine."

"She would make a good grandmother" He nods

"Yeah."satisfied. He glances at the game.

Damn, the legs on Leonora

Adam sighs a little wistfully, but he focuses on Nab.

Nabuni lands with more gravity than she had before. More weight.

Adam watches, curious as to why.

Oh she's not clumsy, or fat or anything .. she's just... did she cast shadows before?

"Excuse me, Sir......"Adam goes over to the court and waits for a break in the action. He watches Nab.

It does break, "So my wrist isn't stiff enough?"

"It's more like nowing WHEN to snap it" Leo says "You've got an okay return but you can improve it if you get the wrist work down"

He can wait, no worries.

"I think your boyfriend wantss to ttalk to yoU" Leo winks

"my. oh," Nab turns "Hi, Adam."

Adam grins.

"Hey. You feeling ok?"

"Great!" She beams then "Well, a bit tired. Why, did I play that badly?"

"No! Just.... is that new?" He indicates the shadow.

"oh? Huh! Wow.. I mean I've cast tehm before but normally only when it's sexy"

"Aw, you're always sexy." he gives her a little kiss.

She returns it, "Thanks"

Adam nods respectfully. "Dame. I'll stop interupting." and he heads back to Bachdion.

"Oh no, we're done" Leonora says "She's all yours if you want"

"Of course I want." with a grin "I mean, if you do, Nab. I'm not sure Sir Bachdion is done with me, though."

"Oh go on you two, have fun" Bachdion says

"Up to you, Nab. Not sure what you have planned."

"No plans now" She says "I thought about learning to use the sword with my tail but it's a bit cumbersome?"

"I would think anything but maybe a foil would be too heavy." Adam adjudges. "And a foil is only good for poking things."

"Gosh... poking sounds SCAAAAARRRY" She sucks on the tip of her forefinger

Adam snorts. "You really want to learn combat?"

"Nah. I don't think I'm the fighting type" She admits "I mean, maybe some basics would be handy"

"You're getting along good with Dame Leonora; maybe she could teach you?"

"Maybe we could wrassle?" A wink

Adam laughs. "You and me or you and Dame Leonora?"

"Fine. .how about a drink?" She says taking his arm

"Sure. Jack's?"

She nods and walks arm in arm with him

"Hey Jack!"Adam greets the bartender.

(As they enter)

"Hey, Adam. Nab.. what can I get you two?"

"Nab?"

"Mmm some of that award winning drink by Vince?" Nab asks

"ugh, don't remind me. Beat out by my own apprentice" Jack serves it "And you, Adam?"

"Same!"

And one for her. It's not too heavy, but still has buzz

"Mmm....." he savors it.

"So how are you two? "
