[ A duo of options today for those seeking out Selina Kyle. After all, she basically does live a dual life. Doesn't she? Pick either scenario and you'll have either the femme fatale cat burglar, or the woman that most of Mandalus seems to know. Just comment with which option you'd like!

Option 2 because yes

[Raven had promised to drop by, and breakfast was one of the most telling diner meals. Plus, she's been missing pancakes she didn't have to do all the work for. She hadn't been expecting Selina, but she stops by her table with a shy smile anyway.]

Morning.

[softenedbyme]

I won't be a burden.

[adaptably]

[ Selina rolls her eyes and gives her a pointed look. ]

I took in a girl named Jen and showed her the tricks of the trade. Showing you how to fight wouldn't be a "burden." Every girl needs to know how to fight to defend herself.

[softenedbyme]

[...Ah.]

Wouldn't that involve a small amount of trust? [Isn't that a mistake?]

[adaptably]

There's a difference between personal and professional trust, Raven. Do you trust the bank with your money or with your feelings?

[adaptably]

Lighten up, Raven. Don't be so serious all the time.

[softenedbyme]

I might eventually.

[That's as good as a yes.]

[adaptably]

Start today. Otherwise we're not going to have a very good time together.

[softenedbyme]

I'll try.
