After finishing a duty shift on the Bridge, taking a quick sonic shower, and putting on a fresh uniform he made his way to the Genesis’ Lounge. It had been some time since he’d partaken in the social scene on the ship, having been caught up in reports and gym time he hadn’t taken much time off to breathe. He started by making an order at the bar and then finding himself a seat near the viewport. Moments later a server brought him a wineglass with several cubes of ice and a bottle of chilled White Wine from New France. After opening the bottle and pouring a glass the server left the bottle on the table. Magnus took out his notebook he’d started carrying with him everywhere he went because of Lieutenant Jarvis. He took out a pen and started writing in the book, actually writing with his hands, not just typing on a PaDD.

Reia was dressed for date night. She had a feeling Dagen would be along in five or ten minutes or, perhaps, a half hour. He could tell you everything about the warp core and other related engineering topics but, she swore his next present from her was going to be a pocket watch.

As she walked to an intimate table she decided to stop by and say hello tot he XO but was caught by the travesty in his wine glass.

“Commander! I don’t believe it. A man of such intellect and breeding putting ice in wine… Be still my racing heart!”

For dramatic effect she placed her hand over her heart, the upper half of her hand rested on the smooth skin of her chest due to the low cut bodice of her black dress.

Magnus didn’t look up at first, only smiling as he finished writing the last sentence. He put the pen down, grabbed the glass and slowly spun it around, letting the ice clink in the wine before looking up, as always he put on his most charming smile for Reia “That, my dear, just comes to show what little you truly know about enjoying life to its fullest.” He leaned back in his seat, crossed his legs and turned to fully face her

“This is a Marsenne from New France, strong flavor for a White, the cube is a freshly chilled perfect sphere that will hold its consistency throughout the entire bottle only diluting the wine by a small margin which I find enjoyable for this particular vintage. 2388 is a good year for this wine.” He held eye contact as he took a sip of his wine then sighed with pleasure in a dramatic fashion “Perfection” He chuckled “Not to change the subject from my obvious sacrilege but you know you don’t have to dress up just to speak with me” His expression turned into a faux serious one “Honestly, I know I am an absolute treat but you can’t possibly hope to match my dashing good looks and natural charm” He added a wink when his facade broke almost immediately and his grin returned

Reia raised and eyebrow and immediately went into a pout.

“It’s true, you are incredibly charming, very sophisticated, and quick witted but, there is one thing you absolutely don’t have.”

That made Magnus snort with amusement.

Reia stepped forward, raised a hand, and brought it close to his face. Starting from forehead to chin without actually touching him.

“Come and see me when you get some spots then I’ll show you how I really dress up.”

Winking, she straightened up and stepped back.

“Maybe I should try some of that wine, who knows.”

  • Reia

“Hah!” Magnus laughed then waved a hand. One of the bartenders brought an extra glass “Come have a seat Reia.” He poured a glass but did not ask for Ice in her glass “In all seriousness, you look fantastic tonight” He took another sip “Date night?” He asked.

XO
