Out of curiosity, how many different sentient species are now inhabiting the City? If you're not a human by birth, what is your species? Similarly, if you don't consider Earth your home, what is your home world like?

You're a busy guy. I don't want to intrude.

[currentcy]

I ain't busy.

[mocks]

Then... we could have dinner or something, maybe?

[currentcy]

Dinner sounds nice.

[mocks]

Okay. Dinner it is. When and where?

[currentcy]

What are you in the mood for?

[mocks]

Uh, well... Italian, maybe?

[currentcy]

Italian it is, babe. I'll pick you up.

[mocks]

... Okay. You'll dress up nice, even?

[currentcy]

I could get my hands on a tux.

[mocks]

You're not gonna steal it, are you?

[currentcy]

Nnnno.

[mocks]

Promise?

[currentcy]

Cross my heart.

[mocks]

Okay. I believe you.

[currentcy]

I do got a fair amount of cash, y'know. Don't need to steal.

[mocks]

I'll remember you said that, sugar.

[currentcy]

You better.

[mocks]

You better remember it too.

[currentcy]

You got no faith in me.

[mocks]

Well, you did forget my birthday...

[currentcy]

I didn't even know about it.

[mocks]

And here I was thinking you cared about me.

[currentcy]

Of course I do.

[mocks]

Mm.

You're gonna make it all up to me, aren't you, Max?
