(This interaction takes place around a year’s time after the group entered Ozma, so about 1 Eorzean day later.)
She had a lot of time to think. And the more she thought about it, the more Ariabelle realized that she and Rick’s last date had been the day of their engagement.
How could we have let so much time pass? But then, it hit her. It wasn’t that they had been careless or forgetful, but that life had thrown many curveballs their way.
Moving quickly, the Miqo’te sought out Risah and asked her to babysit for the night. She had agreed, saying that Eli was no trouble to watch at all. She had a certain twinkle in her eye, though; however, Ari chose to ignore that.
First thing’s first: I need to find Rick. Because in order to have a date, he needs to be there. Where has he been running off to lately?
Ari soon realized that Rick had been training quite a bit, namely with Kahle, Sugar, and occasionally Kit. She assumed that would be a good place to start.
Okay. So I find him and then just ask him if he would like a night alone tonight. Since we haven’t had a date in -
WHUMP.
Before she could finish her thought, Ari found herself looking at Rick, who she had just knocked over in her haste to find him. She brushed herself off as she began to stand up once more.
“Oh, I’m sorry, Rick! Though, I am happy to run into you...quite literally. I had hoped to see if you would like to go on a date tonight. Risah told me she would watch Eli so we could have our first date in, well, probably over a year at this point. What do you say?”
