Pivoting to see her, Suicide found himself actually glad that Diocletian had ordered him to change into a clean uniform. Jenni looked . . . well, nice, but that didn't nearly seem to cover it. 'Classy' might be closer to the mark. (It wasn't a word that normally applied to a woman who was as handy as Jenni was with a set of psychiatric restraints, but there was something damned classy about a woman who was that good at her job.) He did a quick mental review of everything Dio had drilled into his head about modern behavior and pulled out a seat for Jenni.

"It's a limited-time offer," he said with a grin as he did so. "But you did a hell of a good job fixing me up, so I thought you might like a chance to get acquainted with your handiwork before I wind up wrecking it again."

Wait, was that sleazy? 'Sleaze' was a concept heretofore unfamiliar to Suicide until Dio defined it as 'you, between drinks one and eight.' He took a sip of his hell-brew to cover his momentary confusion.

"Want something to drink? The Bleepka Collins isn't half bad."
