[Luci laughs.] Persephone. You joking with me right now, or have I started a trend?

[There's something about it she likes though-- something satisfying? Or maybe it's just the mythology that has her smiling a little. Maybe she could bring a little spring to Luci's life, even if it's just a few cigarettes and some flirtation. There's an electricity between them that has Luci feeling invigorated, and right when everything around her has felt so flat.]

Persephone... I'll be thinking about you long after this party is over, I can promise you that. [She leans a little closer, asking permission silently.] You can call me Luci.
