Ranpha was reading some personal ads.

Forte walked up. "Still looking for love?" she asked, in a gently teasing voice.

"I don't see a man by your side," Ranpha said.

Forte held up her pistol. "This is the only companion *I* need."

"That gun won't keep you warm through the night," an unusually forward Ranpha said.

"You've never held this gun after it's been fired." Forte caressed the barrel of her pistol in a vaguely disturbing way. "Oh, how I love to hold the still-warm muzzle, just after it's... discharged..."

Ranpha sweat-dropped. "For goodness' sake, you two. Get a room."
