<Cobalt signals a waitress and she brings both another bottle of pinot noir as well as a very high end scotch, with two scotch glasses>
I'm more of a scotch man myself, these days.
<pours a scotch glass>
The way you talked about Dev, just now. It was interesting. I think despite yourself, despite what you expected yourself to feel, you actually made a connection with Dev. And now, because you're used to the idea of romance leading to disaster, you're afraid romance will ultimately destroy that connection.
<sips the scotch>
Its a feeling I can relate to.
I think you and Dev have left things in an odd place and you should follow things up with him. It may not be pleasant...in the short term. But Dev is a good man. And when you make a connection with someone--well, that's something you don't want to let slip away.
She has that same vulnerability Viv and Opal once had. A strong, brave woman, but vulnerable behind it all. This is the person I want to know better.

(She ignores the scotch, Tempest isn't a fan of alcohol.)
Cobalt, I'm not afraid of romance, I'm just uneasy with it. True love and all that, I've never had it. Ever.
With Dev, I don't want it, I want his friendship, I want to be there for him and him to be there for me. He's not a soul mate, more like a kindred spirit.
He's very attractive. But his reputation...what would be the point. One of my shades is a notch on his infamous bedpost, why should I be another one. I just can't help but feel comfortable around him.

I don't know. I guess there is some sort of...chemical attraction. But with me, that never lasts. I get bored, look for a new scene and leave the old one behind. It's kind of hard to make friends if you use them up until you get bored with them.
What about you, anyone special?

Just one these days, though I haven't seen her in a long time. Spellbinder, whom you may recall as the Princess of Psyonia, Crujectra.
We've been together a number of years but these last two years have been difficult as she's been touring the United Planets for charitable rebuilding projects in devastated planets.
I can only trust we'll be reunited again soon.
<sips scotch>
It hasn't been easy, though.
