Brooklyn, Saturday night

[giveherahand]

Mara, dressed in a skin-tight pair of black leggings and a shirt almost as ugly as Eggsy's terrifying wolf coat under her own leather jacket, glanced over at her date for the night. "Why do you smell like Outer Rim livestock?" she asked as they walked past an obscene number of tattoo shops and whiskey bars

"Detention," Eggsy replied, sniffing at himself. But it didn't help that he'd gone numb to the smell after an hour or so of shoveling shit. "Apparently you shouldn't drink in class or flirt with your prof."

[giveherahand]

"And you didn't know that until this morning?" Mara teased.

[myfaireggsy]

"They had beer right there!" That was just asking for trouble. Hitting on Obi-Wan... well, that was just baseline Eggsy.

[giveherahand]

"And the flirting?" Mara asked, arching up an eyebrow.

[myfaireggsy]

"Ain't my fault Kenobi's fit."

[giveherahand]

Mara shrugged. "...I can't really argue with that. The beard seems like it'd be scratchy, though."

Eggsy leaned in, hooking his arm in her's. "This you tellin' me not to stop shaving?"

And lose his baby face.

[giveherahand]

"Yes," Mara said, kissing his cheek. "Please."

[myfaireggsy]

"Could always grow a handlebar mustache," he said, nodding over at one of the people they were passing on the street.

He looked like a stylish walrus.

[giveherahand]

"Wooooow," Mara said slowly, watching the man as he passed. "No."

[myfaireggsy]

"You tryin' to say I wouldn't pull it off?" HE WOULD NOT.

[giveherahand]

Mara burst out giggling. "I'm saying I'd pull it off. With my fingers. With you attached to it."

Ow, Mara.

[myfaireggsy]

"Ouch." That was cruel. "Don't want to date a walrus?"

[giveherahand]

"Not even a little bit," Mara said, smiling up at him. "Oh, look at this next guy's stupid hat."

[myfaireggsy]

"Now I know what to get you for your birthday."

[giveherahand]

"A walrus in a stupid hat?" Mara beamed at him. "I love it already."
