Heng pressed his lips into a line, looking around the bar.
He sighed like an old man, and took the seat offered.
"I have all the time in the world," he smiled, raising his hand to ask for another drink.

Penelope smiles a little at his words.
"So do I."
She placed an order for food and turned to Heng. "My name is Dante by the way, weird I know, my mom was a huge fan of the divine comedy."

Heng didn't know what the 'divine comedy' was. He'll look it up later.
"Dante," he repeated, nodding. "My name is Heng," he introduced, dipping his head down and up.
When his drink arrived, Heng slid it over closer, but didn't lift the cup.
"And how did you come upon this uh... establishment, Ms Dante?" Heng tried for small talk. Awkward old man. He turned to look behind him yet again. Everything was so flashy (it wasn't really. Heng just has weird standards). Except at this bar where the lights were dim and moody, which was much easier on Heng's eyes. He still squinted though, because it was kind of hard to make out anything paste the relatively brighter lights of the bar.

"A good friend of mine was the one who told me. I was actually supposed to meet her here today but they had to cancel due to a reap order." Dante turns to Heng and crosses her legs. "You alright?" She looks at the stage, the coloured lights were highly dim but still made the place glow a little.

" Ah, yes. I just find the lights.. er, distracting," he apologized with a chuckle. A sigh chuckle. A shuckle.
"I haven't had a reap order in a while," Heng said casually. "I expect something'll come up soon." he held the cup to his lips, taking a breath (a habit of his it seems), then took a drink.

Dante chuckles. "You sound like an old man. Come on you're too attractive to be acting like that." She gently nudges him with her elbow. "Live a little Heng. You want to dance perhaps?" She smiles gently at him.

Heng blinked, hand moving up to rub the back of his neck.
"Oh uh.. I'm uh, not very good at dancing," he chuckled apologetically. "I'd be embarrassing to dance with me. Only good for fighting, this one," he tried for a joke. He's trying really hard.

'Dante' gives Heng her best smile. "Pssht, everybody had to start somewhere." She grabs his hand to pull him onto the dance floor. "Come on Old man, let's teach you a few new tricks."

"Oh," Heng sounded as he was pulled from his seat. Guess there wasn't room for opposition anymore. He let Miss Dante lead him to the crowded dance floor, where the sweat smell was strongest and the lights somehow made the writhing mass of bodies seem darker, like a thundercloud.
"Does the interior of this establishment have to be so dark?" he asked, looking over heads. The youth today sure have energy. Well, not that he didn't have energy when he was alive but it was being used for very different things.

She could tell this guy was a joy. "Don't worry." She assures him while gently leading him to a less crowded area that had more light than the dark floor. "It's just the way things are here I guess." She puts his hand on her shoulder and takes his other hand firmly with her gloved hand. "Just follow my lead Mr. Heng."
She starts off slow, moving one foot at a time in a way that was simple to follow allowing them to move comfortably.

Heng nodded.
"I leave myself in your care then Miss Dante," he replied.
Well, he shouldn't let Miss Dante's efforts to go waste.
He watches her steps attentively, stumbling about everywhere at first. After a few more rounds, he catches onto the beat. Who knew that if you moved in time to the beat (even counting it yourself), you will more effectively follow along? You learn new things everyday.
He's always wanted to dance. He mentioned it to his soldiers once and they laughed at him, saying that it wasn't suited for a man built like he was between giggles. Heng threw a dirt ball at them. He was younger then.

Dante danced slowly with him making quick glances every now and then around the bar.
Why wasn't he here yet?
She was so troubled that she nearly stumbled on her own heel as Heng's foot got in her way. She quickly swing them to the right like they were swing dancing and laughed as they nearly ran into another couple. She honestly apologized but her smile didn't leave her face (like it ever could) as the couple slurred their acceptance they were too drunk to be dancing themselves to be honest. Dante was having a good time despite herself and she needed to refocus.
"Sorry about that Mr. Heng, did you want to keep dancing or maybe take a seat again?" Her feet still tapping to the rhythm

Heng blinked, looking around him.
"I think this is uh, enough excitement for ah, for an old man like me, sorry" he laughed, letting go of Miss Dante. "You're enjoying yourself though, I see," he smiled.
"Are you uh.. looking for someone?" he said after a moment, tilting his head. He had a more serious look on his face now. Call it intuition.

Dante let's their hands go and smiles. "I thought I saw someone I recognized was all."
Right on queue, like magic, there he was. The man doesn't quite walk into the door, he morphs in like some dark shadow from a bad dream. His hair is gelled back, held by too much grease it looks stuck together like cement glue. Its unnatural. His body is thin, you need to do a double take to see any muscle definition under his black long sleeved shirt. First appearance-- he's a weakling.
That's what gets you killed.
Wolfe relied on your first impression to catch you off guard then he'd snap your head all the way around. He wasn't a joke. He could destroy you, all without breaking a sweat.
Penelope nearly smiled. There you are~
"Mr. Heng, I'm sorry to ask this of you but, um," Dante rubs her arm. Could you, perhaps, walk out with me until we're somewhere safe to open the portal back to HQ?"

Heng blinked.
"Oh, of course Miss Dante. 'Tis no trouble at all," he replied, eyeing in the general direction she was focused on just moments before. He didn't really see anyone who stood out (not that he could see much in the dimness anyways).
He gave her a nod, after he "paid", offered an arm, and headed to the exit. He's had an unsettled feeling since much earlier.
"You're... not in uh, in any position which makes you feel unsafe, are you Miss Dante? Or um, in danger?" he asked in a low voice as he pushed open the door.
