"I did voice a fear of this getup turning into a pumpkin, didn't I?"

"That's true, you did. Would it actually...?"

"It will not be shaped like this when midnight hits. And I will take it off and run naked if I have to instead of waiting and seeing what it turns into."

She giggles. "What a pleasant mental image."

"Who am I to disagree with that wise and very correct assertion?"

"Narcissistic much?"

"It's never narcissistic to know the truth."

"I'm sure you must seduce lots of girls with such self-confidence."

"I take offense. Who said it's only girls?"

"Is that right."

"Of course. I am very right and proper about things."

"As you've repeatedly demonstrated tonight. With such rightness and propriety, what else could a genderfluid person need?"

"That their beloved, right and proper boyfriend is freed from the very kind fairies. Wink-wink."

"Such genderfluid person has however only just met him so boyfriendhood might need to wait a while."

"Boyfriend-to-be or the-next-mistake-I-am-glad-to-have-made."

"Really confident," she laughs. "What if your date can't deal with so much confidence? You might intimidate her away."

She does not look intimidated.

"I am certain that I can think of a way to deal with that when that time comes. If that time comes."

She grins and continues eating.

So does Peter. "So, Law school?"

"Surprising, isn't it, that someone who loves helping people and sometimes messes with fae would go to Law school."

"Maybe if you see it as dealing with courts with complicated laws."

"I was thinking more along the lines of having to deal with people that use very precise wordings and often cannot lie."

"Well, yes, that too."

"How about yourself?"

"What about me?"
