SHEE6:
>"An astute observation, and it would be a wise choice for me to provide you with a different and more rugged set of clothing when you choose to return to the forest, good Valari. Before that, I wanted to see if I might beg the honor of your company in an outing to Club Cyberia? Mine mood is festive and my heart craves spirit and dance! And strong drink, of course!"SHEE6 kicks her feet and laughs a little awkwardly as she remembers her misadventures the last time she indulged in strong drink. Surely this time will be better?"
Valari:
>"You want to go make merry in a tavern, if I'm understanding correctly?"Valari frowns and grows thoughtful.
Valari:
>"SHEE6. I have not socialized among other people since my husband passed away untold months ago. My existence has been a solitary one, in this realm, with only the creature whom you have named Taco Bear as my companion."Her expression becomes more firm and resolute.
Valari:
>"Very well. I will go to 'Club Cyberia' with you, SHEE6, and indulge in merrymaking. Maybe I'll even find joy in human companionship once more. I thank you for this invite. But..... I don't have any coin with which to buy drinks."SHEE6 grins.
SHEE6:
>"Aah, but we are in luck, for mine benevolent liege-lords at the Social Security Administration have given unto me mine monthly stipend, of which much remains even after repaying mine mother for the cost of an ill-considered purchase of cryptocurrency. My wealth presently is reckoned in the hundreds of dollars, upon which we may revel like empresses in a state of extravagance and hedonism!"Valari looks doubtful, but then slowly smiles.
Valari:
>"I don't know that that means, but I trust in your high spirits. Lead on, SHEE6, and we will go to this 'Club Cyberia!'
