Guess Who's Coming to Dinner [Kaz/Zero]

Although she still didn't look particularly convinced by the Trill, Zero slowly nodded her head, her expression somewhat dejected. She wasn't looking at Leela, preferring to keep her gaze down and to the side.

"I guess that's as close as I'm going to get to an enthusiastic yes?" Leela poured another drink to celebrate the journey that they were about to embark on together. She raised the glass in Zero's direction. "To your future!"

Although Zero didn't look happy about it, she inclined her head to Leela. In fact, she looked distinctly reluctant and unhappy about the situation. She was going to have to scale back everything that Corinth had taught her during the years she had been in his care and relearn every thing anew.

It was a long and difficult road, probably fraught with tears, insults and temper tantrums, that they had ahead of them.

Leela gave Zero a nod and a slight smile. "I'm glad that you came over tonight. I'll be in touch soon to start our little adventure. In the meantime, you better  get some rest." She moved toward the door to walk Zero out. "Have a good night and sleep well."
