*Nadir quirked an eyebrow as he blew out a stream of fragrant smoke.* "I've only got one," *he murmured.* "Next time, I'll bring you one of your own..." *he said quietly, turning it about and offering it for her to take between her lips, if she wanted.*

*Shadi leaned forward and puffed gently at the cigar, not bothering to take it from his hands. She didn't cough or choke. She'd clearly done this before. She leaned back with a sigh of contentment.* "Thanks," *she said.* "You have good taste."

"In approving my good taste you show your own," *retorted Nadir with a tilting of his dark head to acknowledge a kind of mutual respect.*

"Doesn't that work out nicely, then?" *she responded somewhat indolently, lulled by the fire, the smell of smoke, and the strange warmth of being comfortable with someone.*

"Charmedly so," *agreed Nadir quietly, idly twirling his cigar between his fingertips.*

*She watched his hands as they moved about the cigar, brought it to his full lips, and retrieved it back. Shadi wasn't entirely stupid--she knew she was attracted to him. And she knew very well what went on, had since she could remember. She'd just never... wanted to do anything about it.
Not that she trusted him, or anything. But what had trust to do with anything?
She sighed, content for now to bask here in his approval.*
((Shadi must have been hit on the head or something not to recognize him.))

((And Nadir can't figure out why this girl looks so much like Gita, her mother, when he knows there was some streetrat claiming to be his daughter by her?))
*Nadir looked up as she sighed.* "Tell me your thoughts," *he said.* "It does no one any good to dwell on unhappy things in solitude."

*Shadi laughed.* "Oh, I'm not unhappy. Just... content. This is nice. Nice is unexpected, you know. I'm not used to it." I'm not used to you... or what you represent. "I guess I'm just wondering what I'm going to do to screw it up."

"Contentment is a rare and beautiful thing. Treasure it--it cannot last long," *said Nadir rather darkly.*

Way to dampen the mood, *Shadi thought.*
"Well then... maybe we should make the most of it." *She gazed over at him.*

*Nadir raised an eyebrow at this.* "Clearly you already have a plan--care to give me any knowledge of it?"

*Shadi shrugged, but leaned forward. Dangerously so.* "I just thought I might benefit from your... experience," *she said, her voice husky.*
