Really it ought not take very long, but seeing as she wasn't running the show, she couldn't say for sure.

Pushing the salad stuff around her plate, Emily decided she wouldn't be finishing it. Instead, she nursed her coffee in her hand.

Ahhhhh! Now THIS was an interesting turn in conversation. Pushing her plate aside, Emily leant forward on the table, arms resting against the surface, propping herself up. "And do I strike you as the type to form unhealthy habits?" Because if she did, she'd like to know why. Or if not, why not. Normally she didn't care what people thought, but considering Rusty seemed to be the only one who really understood her, really got her, she was keen to hear his evaluation.

Emily raised her cup too, only slightly, in mock toasting. She didn't care about the galleons, but she wasn't going to say no to the raise. That being said, she wouldn't allow herself to be taken advantage of either. "To making the most of it," she replied.

"I'll mark it in my calendar as soon as you tell me which day I'm to desperately welcome with all my anticipatory sighs." Rustin said with a humourous twinkle in his eyes that juxtaposed his perfectly straight face.

Date indeed.

He watched her shift, her body language marking her interest in the subject at hand. Rusty considered her question. Thus far he supposed he could point out a few superficial bad habits, like the coffee for instance. Or the impressive way she inhaled her food. Or the lack of close relationships she appeared to have. But he took the question to be deeper than that.

"You strike me as the type who might choose to form unhealthy habits just to show the world that you're in control of your own fate." Sort of a screw you to all and sundry. Just an observation.

"To making the most of it." He agreed, and took a healthy swig of his drink.
