Baby, it's cold outside....

Their first date had been a picnic, but it's really not good picnic weather any more. Mar'i can withstand the cold of space, but she much prefers warmer temperatures, and of course Grant doesn't have her advantages. She grins at the memory of him in the EVA suit on the moon, while she'd flown around free of such restrictions. The look of awe on his face when they visited Tranquility Base, though ... both of them careful not to disturb the famous landing site. Thanks to her ability to carry him in flight, he'd been able to see the footprints of the Apollo 11 crew, still preserved in the lunar soil.

She doesn't get to entertain much at her condo. Public identity or not, she's cautious about inviting people over, so none of her classmates from the university have visited. Study sessions have always been held in the library or at someone else's residence. But Titans--Titans are always welcome.

Especially the Titan who's coming over tonight.

She hums happily to herself as she moves about in the kitchen. She isn't a very good cook (especially when she measures herself against Alfred or even her stepmother or Aurora), but she has portobellos marinating in the refrigerator, ready to be grilled and served with a green salad.

Now, where did she put those kaiser rolls?

"Yes, please--" She waves at the refrigerator as she carefully lifts a dripping portobello out and lays it on the grill. Immediately it starts sizzling and she hurries to put the second one next to it. "These won't take long."

"Alright," he replies, moving to the refrigerator again, opening it and ducking his head inside. "Here we go," Grant says, pulling out a large bowl covered with plastic wrap, bumping the fridge closed with his hip. It's a standard green salad, but he's sure she's got a good dressing to go with it. "Just put this on the table, or...?"

"Table, and if you could get bowls in the cabinet over there...." She opens the grill and checks on the sizzling mushrooms.
