Alanna took his hand gently with a soft smile, "Alanna, but all my friends tend to call me Lanna." From her accent anyone within earshot could tell she was from the french south. "It's nice to meet you, chere."

Peem nodded, his own scottish accent coming through a bit. "Glad ta meetcha, Lanna." He looked over the menu. "So what brings a southerner up to the big apple?"

She laughed, "About that same thing that a scot would come for.." she nodded a bit. He seemed nice enough, she smiled a bit more. "I just wanted to.. get out.. see a bit of the world." Oh the lies the little thing could tell. It was true, but it wasn't the whole truth.

Alanna gave him a grin, "Well, chere. It was my choice.. mostly." She nodded and rubbed her hands together a bit. They were still chilly from the cold outside. She didn't know what was worse, sweltering or freezing. She smiled at him, "I'm glad you like it, 'well enough'."

Peem nodded and pulled out a pair of leather gloves. "Here." He tossed them to her. "Put them on...warm up your hands faster." He smiled. "...unless you'd rather them warm up slowly."

She blinked at him a moment before she slipped her hands in the gloves and gave him a genuine smile. "Thanks.. it's a whole lot warmer back home..." she nodded a bit and gave him a grin. "Not used to the cold.. it's new.."

Peem shrugged. "Aye aye...I understand dat." He laughed. "Actually I don't...Scotland was a wee bit colder dan this place.." He smiled when the waiter came over, ordering a bowl of soup and a cup of coffee.

Alanna ordered some soup for herself and shivered, "Really? My family, well my mother's family comes from France..." She trailed off a bit and shook her head. "I suppose the need to be warm is in my blood..." She gave Peem a grin. "Though you must be warm all the time.."

Peem raised an eyebrow. "What' does that mean?" He smirked. "And France can be pretty damn cold to I've heard..." He pointed out to her.

She chuckled, "Sorry.. bad joke.. and completely lost.. I meant you've got to be used to being cold, mon ami. And I'm not.. the bayou is warm or hot or sweltering.. we don't have much.. cold I suppose." She shook her head and gave him a smile, realxing almost instantly. "I'm sorry, mon chere. I didnt' mean to offend you.."

Peem laughed. "I aint offended, bairn...I just wasn't sure whatcha meant..." He smirked. "Sometimes I aint the smartest one in the bunch."

She shook her head, "You seem plenty smart to me, and I don't make much sense to myself some days.." She flashed him a brilliant smile, she was starting to like him already. It normally took her a bit to let her guard down. For some reason she didn't even have it up at all. She looked down at her gloved hands and smiled a bit, taking them off, showing him her hands. "Thanks.. all warm and toasty now.." She handed them back to him with a grin.

She grinned brightly. "Really? i've got brothers too. Though they're all back home.." Her eyes shifted, well, at least she HOPED they were all still home. Or not even close to finding her.
