[All right. So Cassandra is a little bit nervous. She hasn't done much of this... calling people specifically as an invitation for sex. What she's been told is known as a booty call. But Max is adorable and fun and they'd had an amusing time trying out their edible lingerie and laughing about it. Also he's terribly hot.
So it's after hours at Hysterium, and she's cleaning up and setting up for the next night on her own, this time... still dressed in the dark blue silk dress she'd been wearing to work. So there's no time like the present, right? Out comes her tome and]
I was wondering, Max. If you might like to join me for a nightcap. [She bites her lip before giving him a playful little smirk.] And then take thorough advantage of having the place to ourselves.
[Cassandra putters about the place while she waits for him; playing around with flower decorations for the speakeasy for a few brief moments and getting out a bottle of quality wine and a couple glasses. Chilling it is easy, at least. A brush of fingertips and frost creeps up the glass.
Once the wine is chilled she moves to wait for him by the entrance. She could leave the door open for him but she doesn’t want to chance getting... distracted and forgetting to lock it behind him. And risk putting on more of a show than she’s ready for should someone discover the unlocked door and come inside. This time, at least. She’s found herself having far more... dangerously close to public intimacies than she expected, since her arrival.
She smiles brightly at the sight of him, drawing him inside and closing (and locking) the door behind him.]
I am more than a little biased of course but I absolutely agree that you should.
[And not just because she’s working a lot of the nights. She gives him a playful smirk.]
Consider this your open invitation.
[He compliments her and she grins, only blushing a little as she gives a little curtsey.]
Why, thank you.
[And oh, isn’t he a charmer. The kiss he brushes against his knuckles is unexpected and charming as utter hell. After, she curls her fingers around his and draws him deeper into Hysterium with her. There’s instrumental music playing softly in the background, the sort of music she tends to put on after everyone is gone. And had forgotten to turn off but that’s all right. It adds a little atmosphere.]
That's all right. As long as we all admit our biases. For instance, that happens to be one of my favorite colors you're wearing.
[With a playful smirk like that, consider the invitation accepted.
He follows along closely behind her, happy to be drawn in deeper. The music playing is soft and somewhat ethereal. Adds a nice touch, he thinks. Sets the mood for a romantic rendezvous. Hell, he could see himself slow dancing to it nicely.
When he spots the wine set out, he smiles and motions to it.]

You know, I don't get over here enough. I need to branch out from the Ruby Slipper more. You look great in that dress, by the way.
[He lifts her hand to green her knuckles with a kiss. Almost seems a shame to take the dress off of her. Almost.]

Is that our nightcap?

And looks good on her.]It is, indeed. [She tilts her head towards it.] Shall we?

What should we toast to?

Good drinks and better company.

Oh yes, I'll drink to that. And I'll add, getting to know people.
[Wink.]
