The Power of Premeditation (Xazor and Open)
(It was a sunny day on Chandrila, warm, with cotton candy clouds adrift in blue skies. A cool breeze blew in from the sea, as I sat at an outdoor cafe. I didn't normally conform to the habitat or the moment. Today, I indulged. A white fedora was drawn over my eyes, with a pastel jacket hung loose and comfortably over my shoulders. I finished the newspaper, setting it in a 'teepee' on the table, where my empty plate was. I paused, taking in the local charm of the place, before lighting a stim.
I'd sent Xazor a communique a week ago, requesting her company today. Hopefully, I wouldn't be disappointed. Smiling, I adjusted my sunglasses, smoke wisping from the end of my stim like a blowing lock of white hair. A silhouette approached from behind.)
Gaston, I'll have a pint of the pub draught. When my guest arrives, get her anything she wishes. I'm paying.
