"Well, Quorra," Chase said, wondering what kind of name that was, "I was just going to go over to the hub and maybe-" Get a little drunk. "-sit down and just see who else is around and about this weekend not looking like their usual selves."
He offered her a smile and stuck his hands into his short pockets, starting to walk but in a such a way that it sort of implied she should fall in beside him.
"What are you really? Cuz you're a pretty cute kid."
Quorra trotted along beside him, occassionally hopping or skipping a few steps to keep up with her short kid legs.
"I'm a regular grown up woman." She'd learned it was better not to lead with the whole "computer program" thing. "I don't have purple hair, though I might if I could change it here. I like it."
"Well, that would be great," Chase said, smiling a little, though he was still thinking of her as a kid as opposed to the grown up woman she was supposed to be.
That was an interesting question, seeing as Chase didn't rightly know.
"Uh, can't really say?" he ventured.
"I mean, I don't really know what that dude looked like when he was younger. I just know that I usually look like me. But I guess if this is what I look like when I'm old, then I probably look like he did when he was young, sure."

"I'm not really a little kid."

"You know purple is my favorite color hair," Chase told her with an uneven sideways smile.
"I'm usually a lot younger than this."

She was starting to wonder if anyone looked like they were supposed to today.
"Maybe we'll meet in the middle when our ages go back to normal."

"Do you always look like Flynn, only younger?"
Quorra thought she'd have noticed someone who did, but she hadn't met everybody yet.
