[Hercules is laughing heartily.]

You know, if this were thirty years ago, we would not be waiting in endless lines, but doing them!

[A pause, his expression sobers.]

...Just say no, kids. Tis not a good idea unless you are a god.

Hercules. Sometimes people add 'Incredible' or 'Mighty' to that.

[hexappeal]

As in the, you mean? [She's too impressed to realize that was totally his intention.]

[godlyendowment]

That too. Most people figure that out pretty fast.

[hexappeal]

Hi.

[godlyendowment]

Why hello there. Zatanna is a fine name, by the way.

[hexappeal]

[Straightens out her bow tie, with just a touch of nervousness.] Thanks. May not be the easiest to remember, but once you do, it's hard to forget.

[godlyendowment]

Perhaps I just need to get some practice in saying it.

[hexappeal]

I suggest practice over drinks. Perhaps somewhere dimly lit.

[godlyendowment]

Dimly lit? Are you worried you will be seen with me?

[hexappeal]

I've been in long-term relationships with more worrying people.

[godlyendowment]

I tend not to worry people unless they're evildoers. But I suppose dimly lit can do. Though I would possibly like the chance to see you in full light, as well.

[hexappeal]

I wouldn't be against that.

[godlyendowment]

Well then. Do you know of a place that is dimly lit and perhaps serves alcohol?

[hexappeal]

That vampire bar or whatever was pretty okay. I can't say that my heart's set on there, however, so please feel free to suggest an alternative.

[godlyendowment]

I work there. It's fine enough but not a place I think I can relax. I... actually normally drink at home, so I do not know of an alternative.

[hexappeal]

Inviting me to your place for a drink? I hope your expectations aren't too high.

[godlyendowment]

I expect to meet a lady. To expect more would be presumptuous.

[hexappeal]

Good answer, Herc -- wait, is it okay to call you that? Terminal case of shortening names, here.
