[ A tut comes from him at that, but not one of sympathy. No, no, he'd never insult her with sympathy. His is a tut of annoyance that anyone would allow Ghost to think her only option is to go stag. Unthinkable. ]

As delightful as the mystery of it would be, it's an insult if there is no mystery admirer at the other end.

You said it yourself that you would like a date, no? There is only one way to find out who's taken and who isn't, and I will do all the groundwork for you. Call it an act of gratitude for all this.

Now, tell me what you like in a partner and know that I won't hear any more excuses. And that I'm quite stubborn when it comes to getting my own way.

Oh my goooooooooooooooood —

[Thus comes the mournful whalesong of a Ghost fully aware of her own defeat. Thank goodness for Kaveh's patio; it gives her an easy place to retreat to and a comfortable chair to collapse in, and the relative privacy of not having to admit her tastes in people in front of venue and everyone.]

You're really going to make me do this, huh. All right, fine, I...

[A beat; she sighs, and her tone goes softer, her words quieter. Not defeated, but at the very least resigned.]

I like people who are...lively. Not just charming or charismatic, but enthusiastic. The kind of person who can be handed every reason to be bitter and jaded and withdrawn, but still come up...loving life. Finding wonder in it.

[wow it almost sounds like she has a specific person in mind as she comes up with this. Can't spell necromancer without romance!]

Because they make me feel at ease at a venue like this. I stop thinking about all the problems and hangups and complications, and get carried along on their enjoyment of it. That's what I like.

[ Lestat listens in that attentive manner he finds so easy to do with Ghost, the one that might surprise his other friends were they to discover him capable of it. He makes a soft sound of understanding, trying to cast his mind to those in the city he's already met who might fit this bill. There's a couple, but no-one in particular.

Well, there's himself, of course, and the thought does make him smile a little. ]

I understand completely. I think those aren't lofty requests. I'll be sure to find someone to whisk you away into a storybook evening.

[ He sounds very certain of himself, but he did already mention how stubborn he is. ]

How hard can it be, after all? And I'll be sure to make sure they buy you the corsage. Something to match your dress perfectly. Leave it with me, ma rousse.
