Francesco's and X-Men (For Riley)

[honeyandwine]

Tristan pays extra attention to detail as he dresses for his date with Riley. He doesn't want to come across overly formal, but he doesn't want to dress too casual, either. He decides upon an old favorite of his, an outfit that is both fashionable and comfortable at once.

He has a bouquet of passionflowers and a box of caramel-filled chocolates by his side as he approaches Riley's door, taking care not to breathe in any general direction of plant, the image of Val's displeasure all but burned into his mind.

Taking a deep breath, he works up the courage to ring the door bell after standing nervously before the door for a good few moments.

"Something about snails and back alleyways," he says, trying not to laugh at the expression on her face. "See? French has it's ugly side too."

She laughs. "You're right. French ain't all that," she teases.

"Don't tell that to Parisians," he advises her with a wink. "They might start a revolution over it."

"My lips are sealed," she says with a grin.

He winks at her before offering her his arm as they make their way to the restaurant.

"So, have you ever traveled to anywhere besides America and Korea?"
