Alright, well, that's okay. You can practice while you're here.
Gives me a chance to give you a little background on pop culture in 2002.
*Luke clears his throat.* From now on, whenever I'm joking and I want to let you know .... *He winked, exaggeratedly so Cora could see.* I'll do this.
It's called a wink. *grin* Before you ask.

:::She payed close attention now:::
Just one eye... like this... :::She mimicked the exaggerated wink::: That means you're not being serious... then, you'll make sure I'm looking at you when you're not being serious?

*Luke shrugged.* Slim, if I winked at you every time I said something not serious, people would think I had Tourets syndrome.
But yeah, some of time I can wink. Do we have a deal?

:::Anything that would help, she thought. Cora just nodded, sort of expressionless. She was now trying not to think about how full she felt. What good did not being serious do...? Now she just felt uncomfortable:::

*Luke requests the check and the waitress brings it by. From there, Luke gets up from his seat. He throws a five and a couple ones on the table to the waitress for her trouble, and he goes to pay at the counter.*
*He hands the cashier a check card.*
"Debit. Thanks."
"How was everything at your table?"
*Luke looked over to see Cora holding up a piece of spaghetti, analyzing it as if it were an artifact from another civilization.*
*smiles sideways* "An experience. It's always an experience. Tell the waitress that she did a good job."
*Luke signs for the card.*

:::Cora looks up from her noodle analysis, and thinks that perhaps she should keep a sample to look closer at later, but soon she realizes that she's wearing strange clothing, and doesn't have any recepticles for it. But as soon as her thoughts wandered too far, her head darted up to make sure she could still see Luke... Her heart started beating agian when she made sure he was only about 25 feet away. She waited for him:::

:::Cora gives a start at the mention of nuclear device:::
Hah! Silly old technologies...Can you believe they thought nuclear based energy was so revolutionary? :::she chuckled, and stopped suddenly:::
You were not serious thought right? There isn't any around? Because that's dangerous. Uranium and Plutonium were terribly unstable elements. :::She said almost scoldingly:::

Of course they are. They serve a noble purpose. How else would we get our comic book superheroes?
*Luke doesn't wait for her to comment.* You ready to get going?

::She scrunched up her face in confusion about what Luke thinks nuclear power does...:::
You get your what from nuclear power plants?
:::But Luke cuts her off before she can finish the question:::
Oh...uhm. Yes. Where are we going now?
:::She follows him closely, though getting a good look at her surroundings... and so she became curious about a particular activity proceding on the way to the door. A couple of men were walking around a flat, in-layed green table. They carried long sticks, and kept pointing them at what looked to be solid spheres:::
:::If Luke began to tell Cora where they were going next she didn't hear it:::
Luke, what is going on over there?

*Luke stops in the middle of what he was saying.* Hmm? *He turns around.*
*A grin spreads across his face.* This? This is pool.
