Rose did feel a little hurt by Zack's somewhat snide comment, but she soon forgot about it as the conversation carried on. She was amused by Zack tripping over his words telling her she needn't worry about her weight, ending in what she perceived to be a compliment. She suspected that Zack had been thinking about whether what he was about to say had been appropriate or not. "Let's see the menu then," she said, an threw him a smile. The man in the apron, who was apparently called Henry, fetched her a menu after Zack spoke to him in a retro-cool way (like it would be perceived as cool in the 50s). I suspect he doesn't speak like that to the replicator... she thought. She looked over the menu, seeing names she only heard from her history lessons. "Let's have the nachos then," she said. "Thanks for the advice." Tag: Zack(OOC: I so imagine Henry to say 'Yous got a cute girlfriend" )

(OOC: Wells, ones goods turn deserves anothers ) "Let's have the nachos then," "Thanks for the advice.""Henry! One drowning flakes, and one drowning sliced side, with a Pepsi!" Zack ordered for the two of them. Why they used code words in food joints was still a bit of a mystery. It didn't really make all that much sense, but it didn't exactly matter. This was just a recreation. "Yeahs, yeahs!" Henry answered back. The food was underway. Five minutes later. Viola! Henry brought over two plastic red crates with paper laied inside them, each with the order, as well as the Pepsi. "Yous wants twos straws for this Pepsi to shares with your girl?" Henry adjusted his apron as he looked at Rose. "Tell me, whats a pretty girl likes yous doing with a bums likes him?" Henry jerked his thumb at Zack when he said 'bums'. Henry then looked at Zack. "Whats kinda lines yous feed her?" Zack just about turned red. "No lines Henry. And can't yous minds your own business?!" I'd really like to vanish now...Tag: Rose

Rose didn't understand a word of what Zack was saying to this Henry fellow. "What's that you're saying?" she whispered at him while Henry was away getting the orders. "I don't understand a word of it." She really didn't, but she thought she should.
Rose turned red from the embarrassment when Henry asked her what she was doing with a 'bums' (whatever that may be) like Zack. She didn't know whether being called pretty by him should be seen as a compliment. And 'lines'? He wasn't talking about cocaine, was he?
She didn't really know what she was doing with Zack. She liked him, that was all. And he was cute and gentlemanly at times. They had fun. "Er... well..'. I-" she started, tripping up over her words. "I just like him." She kept it at that, then looked at Zack. He had gone totally red, telling Henry to mind his own business.
"Are you alright?" she asked him, eating some of her food. "Come on, just eat. It's nice."

"Touchy mans." Henry rolled his eyes, at what Zack said. "Well toots, whens ya gets tired of liking hims, gives me a call." Henry winked at Rose then went back to the back. This little venture had went from wonderful to just...'beam me out!' protocol.
"I think some reprogramming might be in order..." Zack muttered under his breath. At least Henry hadn't said what he had with a large flesh and blood crowd watching.
"I'm sorry about that Miss Rose." Zack apologized. He had kinda lost his appetite, but as not to be rude, picked up a cheese covered fry. "When I ordered I used waitress and cook lingo. For some reason they code food."

"I don't think I will," she said to Henry as he went back to the back. She felt bad about being so mean but his flirtation really was not appreciated. First, he was a hologram, and second, she was here with Zack. "Go easy on him," said Rose when she heard Zack muttering about a reprogramming. "He's just a hologram."
Zack quickly apologised, and began half-heartedly eating his food. Poor him, his appetite got taken away by the whole episode. "Coding food?" she said with a chuckle. "You know, in a holodeck environment, that just gets another meaning!"

"I guess it's my fault. I used half of my cousin Erics' personality, when programing him." Zack admitted. "At the time it seemed like a good idea." At the time had been the words. Or should it be up until now? No matter.
Coding food? "You know, in a holodeck environment, that just gets another meaning!
Zack though on it for just a brief moment then lightly chuckled. Honestly he'd never thought of it before.

"You mean your brother is...," she started, then realised she was rude and stopped for a while. "Sorry, I'll stop talking." If Henry was really based on Zack's cousin, Rose wasn't really sure about meeting his family.
She finished her food. "So, what do we do now?" she asked.

"It's alright." Zack assured. "I don't have any brother though. Just an older sister, and a twin sister." As nice as it might be to have a brother or something, Zack wouldn't trade in his sisters for anything; even if they didn't always get along. "Every person has at least one obnoxious relitive."
"As for what we do now, I pay the bill." Zack pulled out some change and counted out twenty five cents and placed it on the counter. Sorry, no tip today Henry. Speaking of...
"Wheres mys tip?"
Zack sighed. "Don't take any wooden nickles." He then hopped off the stool and held out his hand for Rose to take so he could help her down. "I think it'd be a good idea to get back to our duties."

Rose fell silent, embarrassed. Apparently, she had said brother when she meant cousin. "Oh gosh," she said, embarrassed. "Er... did I say brother? I obviously meant cousin." He mentioned obnoxious relatives. "I've never met one," she said. It was true: Rose was an only child and she had sort of lived a sheltered life with her parents in Wales.
A little surprised about the bill (as money had lost its function as the primary method of exchange), Rose looked intently at the cents in Zack's hand, then reminded herself that that was the custom in the faraway days of the 20th Century. A 'tip' was also a concept she had to be reminded off, making her look with some puzzlement at the unfolding proceedings.
Zack suggested that they get back to their duties and held out his hand to help her get off the stool. "Thanks for the hand," she said with a smile, "and for the programme. I really enjoyed myself. Next time, how about some adventuring?" She thought Zack would make a gallant hero in the Tolkienesque fantasy world that she was currently working on in her spare time. Even though I won't be the damsel in distress.

"I suppose we could program an obnoxious relative for you." Zack joked. "Guy, or gal." It was an interesting thought. They did also use holodecks for training and certain exercises; even at the academy. "It could be called: Person you don't want to deal with."
Zack helped Rose down. Adventuring sounded fun. "What kind did you have in mind?" He inquired curiously leading to the exit while the Superman theme and words played across his mind. Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No! It's Super man! More powerful than a locomotive, faster than a speeding bullet, Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound!

Rose giggled at Zack's joke. "I don't think that'd be a good idea." She really didn't. Even though she had wanted more close relatives at times, she didn't want any obnoxious ones, even if you could turn them off. As she walked with Zack towards the exit and they spoke about adventuring, Rose shared her thoughts with Zack. "A sort of holographic Dungeons and Dragons," she said. "I've been building a fantasy world in my spare time for some adventures..." She hesitated to admit she had run out of inspiration, but did so. "I've run out of inspiration, though."

"Sounds interesting." Zack admitted thoughtfully. He was thinking. "If you're really stumped on what to do maybe I can lend a hand, if that wouldn't bother you. Some people like their creations to be fully their own, meaning they won't accept help or suggestions. Which is fine." Zack stopped to let Rose walk through the door first.

"I'll think about it," Rose said, and walked out before Zack with a smile, back to her duties.

Zack simply shrugged. Not much else to say, he let Rose go her own way while he went his. Maybe he'd go back to his experiments for a bit before returning to duty or check and see if his roommate was in...and not shoving all the junk over to his side of the room.
