With the Renegade, it was a mess to be a firewall solider. He was sure the Renegade was sitting right beside them, but he couldn't put his finger on it.

"Have you chosen what you would like to have today?"

"I'm not hungry. But, it seems you filled up your plate." Pavel countered. He drank some energy he had, and continued to watch the two programs.

"Eh..." her gaze fell on a grilled chicken meal. That looked pretty good, and didn't seem too out of her league. "The grilled chicken looks pretty good to me. Guess I'll try that."

When Paige refused to answer, he folded his hands and rested his chin on them. "Were you planning on having this many firewall soldiers here tonight?" he inquired, tone becoming one of suspicion.

"Right away. And the handsome, young, firewall would like? "
"A steak."
"Sure thing!." She winked at Chris. Then the waitress left with the order, and took the menus.

"What would you like to talk about before they come back?" Chris tried to strike up a convocation. He smiled, and wondered why the waitress winked at him.

Pavel yawned, and kept on watching Paige and Beck. He knew she wouldn't make a good impression.

@Bumblebee

"Hmmmmm." A deep, unnatural growl emanated from Skye's throat. She narrowed her eyes at the waitress as she left. She didn't notice Chris' question. She was too busy thinking of a way to roast that waitress.

----------------

@Beck

Paige's eyes were downcast, hoping she wouldn't need to answer that. "No, just a coincidence. I never plan to bring Pavel along. The other soldier is under his command, not mine..." she half-gestured to Chris. "I honestly wonder who he's got with him."

Beck side-glanced over at the two, curious as well. The two of them seemed so happy together...

If only it were that easy.

"I see. So you're not planning on violently seizing me and carting me off to compete in the Games?" he asked, raising an eyebrow. He was honestly hoping that was the case. The last thing he wanted was for tonight to end in voxels.

"Something wrong...?" Chris asked. He didn't want Skye to be angry! What was wrong? The waitress...? No, that wouldn't make sense. The waitress was very kind, he didn't see anything wrong with her.

Pavel thought about something for a few moments. If he put both Chris and Beck in the games...
He smiled. That would work. Having Chris and the mechanic derezzed would help his plans.

Skye turned back to Chris, anger seeming to dissipate. She was thinking of a good way to make sure that she-program knew that Chris was hers.

Paige's eyebrows rose at the question. Then, (though she meant it as a joke), she leaned in and softly replied. "Perhaps... but not to the Games. Maybe just somewhere more private."

Beck's next breath caught in his throat. Was she flirting with him?

His pupils dilated, and sweat began forming on the back of his neck. He hoped it wasn't obvious to Paige. "Uh, well... I-I... do you have something in mind?"

"Is... something wrong?" Chris asked. Skye seemed... busy? In thought? He shook it off. He knew something was up.

Pavel perked his ears up. What was Paige saying? He couldn't hear her. He thought about how to get Chris and Beck to the games.

"Nah," Skye sighed. "I just don't like the way she looked at you." She took a sip of her energy using both hands on the glass.

Oh, Users. He actually took it seriously. Hang on, this could work. If only she could get out of here... he certainly would be willing to do that. And if she played her cards right, she might coax some valuable information out of him. "Actually... I have this one place I like to visit, when I need to clear my head after a long week... but we've got to lose Pavel first."
