The smells hit her, and Kofuku looked hungrily at the dishes. Grabbing her chop sticks, she reached over slightly sneaky-like and took a crab puff, putting it in her mouth. Flavor exploded over her taste buds and she closed her eyes, letting out a small 'hmmmm' as she chewed it, enjoying every single bite of it. As she finished the crab puff, she took a bite of the eel with the rice and again, nearly melted in her chair at the delicious flavors that danced along her taste buds.
"Oh this is so incredible, Panther...." She said as she finished her mouthful.

She was stroking his plumage with that comment. It pleased him that she was enjoying the lunch. He pulled up a piece of octopus to cool it off. "I'm glad you like it." He said as he waited, and then put it into his mouth intent on its flavors.

The meal was wonderful and later, as she finished the last few bites of it, she thought back on how it tasted and shook her head. "Oh my gosh, this was the best seafood I'd ever tasted." Dabbing at her mouth with a napkin, she took a sip of her water and looked over to Panther and smiled. "So much better than what I used to have."

"You really munched down on it. You know, you can buy this stuff yourself with the small allotment that you get." he napkined off his face, trying to once again look decent. His manners while eating weren't exactly date worthy, but that was because once he started eating he didn't tend to stop till he was done. "Food, cloths and Important items are what it's for."

"I was hungry..." She blushed a bit, then played with some hair as he told her about what their pay was for. "I know... it's just that I never really had money until now, so I tend to hoard it and get things in a cheaper way." And by cheaper way, she meant the five finger discount. "It's kinda stupid..."

"I understand, cheaper is always better, but money has a purpose you know. If you don't use it, it becomes worthless." he shrugged. He knew he could save the money he had, but if for some reason his pay got cut, he might not have access to it anymore. Not a prospect he fancied, but it was the risk one ran when they joined the organization. If he moved up, he would have more access to money and the possibility of a second income, the under cover income as well as supplement. He smiled, thinking on that and exactly how he wanted to work undercover, there were lots of opportunities.

"I know... I'm just so used to going through life without it, that I guess it feels kinda useless anyways. I mean... I don't even really know where I want to specialize in...." Giving a soft, long sigh, she shook her head. "I just... needed a place to belong, I guess. You know, somewhere safer than the streets." During this conversation, she avoided looking at Panther, not wanting to look him in the eyes as she talked about this stuff.

"I must say, you chose a funny place to find security. Not exactly a lot of friendly folks around there." he shrugged to himself, sensing the uneven ground he was treading. "But We make due with what we get, right? Sometimes I think I'm not cut out for the job myself, but then I remember, I'm still the bottom of the totem pole, and I have time to move up from here."

Kofuku smiled and laughed a little at his comment, then looked up at him. Taking a deep breath, she decided now was probably the best time to tell him a bit about herself. "My parents abandoned me as an infant at a really crummy orphanage. I grew up basically on the streets and ran away from the place at around age 17; they were going to kick me out anyways so they didn't care. So, this place is a huge step up from living on the streets like I had to."
Bitting her lip, she added an after thought on. "I would appreciate it if you didn't tell anyone about this though. It's hard enough as it is, and I don't want Faleen to find out quite yet, if at all."

"I can keep a secret. I won't say anything about it. but from the way you were talking I figured it was something of the like. I wouldn't know what it's like to not have parents. I had two and they were fairly steady." he didn't' know quiet how to handle to situation. Or if there was a right way to handle this one. It was pretty heavy for a first date. but it was her first, so he wouldn't mention it.

Suddenly, Kofuku flashed him a bright, cheerful smile, melting away any tension that had been caused. "Thanks, Panther! I'm really glad I know I can count on you." She didn't seem to mind much about him knowing, but she'd been rather worried about him rejecting her once he'd found out she was a street rat. Maybe, if he understood, Faleen would too... after she went and apologized to the girl.
"So tell me, where to next?" The moment of such serious put way behind her, she was ready for whatever Panther had planned next."

"I don't know... I'm so full, I think I could burst." he patted his stomach in emphasis. "I was hoping to sit her and digest for a few minutes before getting up. Where do you want to go?"

Chuckling, Kofuku gave him a shrug and settled back into her chair. "I'd be happy going anywhere." And she really was happy, even just being there with him. It felt so nice and so exciting, and a little of something else she'd never felt before.

"I was thinking maybe icecream and the park." he smiled a bit. "And there you could work your magic perhaps even, if you felt like it. You have got to teach me how to do that."

"Ice cream and the park sounds wonderful!" She giggled and playfully winked. "Oh, what magic could you possibly be talking about? I'm just a normal girl, thank you."
