Sam shows up a bit earlier than Tereza asked, wearing the dress she was given. She's not perfectly put together, but an effort has been clearly made, with her hair up in a bun that only a few stray locks have escaped. She also has a faint smell of blood about her, but the band-aid on her ankle might explain that.

Tereza is standing next to the car, flipping idly through her phone as she waits. She's dressed to Sam, her hair loose and actually somewhat styled, lacking some of its usual wildness. She looks up as Sam approaches and smiles, "You're early."

"Got the impression this wasn't all that casual," she smirks faintly.

"Looks nice on you."

"Thank you. You look nice too," she says, opening the car for Sam. "Hopefully I'm not barging in on other plans."

"Even if you were, they're cancelled." She says as she settles in the passenger seat.

"You're higher on the list."

"I'll keep that in mind," she says, shutting the door and moving to get into the car herself. The veins on her arms are glowing softly as she gets into the driver's seat and coaxes the car to life, pulling out of the garage.

"So where'd you have in mind? Or should I keep the surprise?"

"A place called Intimo Fresco. Never been there before but it sounded good."

"I'll certainly take good news, even with an 'ish' qualifier," she says, driving them towards Maldon's High Street.

"Sure we're not stopping at the 'World Famous Skin Sorcerer'? You did have me wear something with a low back," she teases.

"I wouldn't spring a tattoo on you like that," she says, "Though if you're interested..." She lets that dangle out a moment with a grin.

"You... might be able to talk me into something."

"But it seemed like you were going for something a bit more refined tonight?"

"I am, but I'm open to where the night leads... relatively speaking. So what's your good news?" She asks as she starts looking for a parking place.

"It's not your fault. It's something Tosh's granddad did to me when I was exposed, and my body's fighting it off."

Tereza blinks and misses an empty parking space before she recovers with a soft "Damn it." Then she quickly adds, "Not about your news! That's great. Well, great-ish."

"I mean, Tosh said I might not be quite normal once we get it completely out of my system but... I think that ship sailed awhile ago, aye?"

"I suppose so," she says, finally finding another parking place and pulling the car gingerly into it.

"Doesn't mean I don't still want to run with my pack, just you'll be sure it's my idea, aye?"

"I suppose I will," she says, getting out of the car and walking around to let Sam out.

"I don't want to ruin the night by not making myself clear and it's too complicated to explain here."

She nods, "That sounds good." She reaches out and takes Sam's hand, "Shall we?"

"Nice place," she says as she takes Tereza's hand and heads in.

"Stone's throw from your old stomping grounds, and all."

"The neighborhood does have a certain appeal." She confirms their reservation and they're shown to their table, "I thought trying new things might be nice."

"There might be a bit of balancing activity," she admits before adding, "As much for me as for you."

"Time and a place, right? I'm trying to teach her that too," she says, tapping the side of her head. "Not that I couldn't stand to learn that a bit myself."

"I would imagine it can be rather confusing in there. It's pretty confusing to me."

She seems to have an automatic response, but she thinks better of it and is saved by their waitperson showing up.

"Worried about how you'll take it? Cause it won't do anything to me," she says, half teasing.
