[raven's wearing a white ruffled shirt and black pants, standard Zrael fare, just without any heavy jacket or coat since the weather is warm. he's also, uh, not wearing a bra]
The beach sounds worth a trip.
[he'll drive along the highway so they get a view of the ocean before arriving]
I thought about taking you to the mall and asking you to dress me up, too.
[he keeps his eyes on the road but tilts his head back, clearly pleased. if he could purr like a cat, he would.
soon, they've arrived, and he parks the car. with his hands free he's going to lean over and comb his fingers through her hair, to undo the tangles from the ride]
I see I should have warned you what I had planned...
[gently petting her hair once it's less tangled, and lets his hands fall to her shoulders, not saying anything for a moment--just admiring her, unabashedly]
[he stands on his own after a moment, and heads to the boardwalk]
I'll admit, I... hesitated, at first, but it doesn't feel bad. Unusual, I suppose. I don't think I'd want to stay like this permanently, but once in a while... would be alright.
Re: 257 probably
So do you, as always.

[ she does take his hand, though, thumb smoothing lightly over his knuckles. ]
Was there an occasion...?
Re: 257 probably

Re: 257 probably
but also— ]
Oh, that's—I don't know anything about cars, but that's really fancy-looking...
Re: 257 probably
We won't be racing in it anytime soon, but... that suits me just fine.

and fastens her seatbelt. you should always wear your seatbelt. ]
That's perfectly fine with me, too. I mean. I've been in DVa's car a couple times and sometimes it's a bit much.
Re: 257 probably
he gets into the driver's side and starts the engine, leaving the top down so they'll get a nice breeze]
I prefer to take things leisurely, when I can.
[heading down]
Is there anywhere in particular you'd like to go?

Re: 257 probably
Well I'm still not sure about my fashion sense, but I'd definitely do that sometime, too
[ she closes her eyes a little to appreciate the cool air, and the increasing smell of the sea breeze. ]
But it seems like you already have a good start on that.
Re: 257 probably
I'd only object if it's something really gaudy.
Re: 257 probably
[ rip her carefully done braid, which has really frayed a bunch, but at least it's drying out.
she reaches over to comb her hand through his hair, meanwhile, trying to be gentle enough not to startle while he's driving. ]

Re: 257 probably
Well. It's, er... a fun surprise, anyway.
Re: 257 probably
Re: 257 probably
We should... probably get out of the car before I give in to the urge to kiss you and forget about the beach entirely.
Re: 257 probably
If you insist.
[he's such a jerk!!!]
Re: 257 probably
she laughs, though, and shoves him lightly by the shoulder before opening the door on her side. ]
Only if you make up for it later.
Re: 257 probably
[gets out of the car and--wobbles, leaning on his cane heavily for a second, but recovers]
... still not used to that.
Re: 257 probably
[ striding over, takes his other arm in a steadying, protective sort of way. ]
Re: 257 probably
... thank you. I'm... mostly accustomed to this change now, but a few things... catch me off-guard.

Re: 257 probably
[ she tips her head slightly. ]
Do you think I'd make a handsome man? Maybe I should see what it's all about, sometime.
Re: 257 probably
... do you think I make an attractive woman?
