Mac inclined his head, smirking. "But now you have the official invite. It's hardly like I had anythin' more enjoyable to do with my day."

"Anytime," he said, still smirking though it slipped slightly as his paw fiddled with the box in his pocket. "I would have brought you a new towel, but I forgot."

"But it was one of yours," Mac said. He glanced around the room. "So, any luck unearthin' your fancy dress?"

She smiled, nodding in response. "It's airing out upstairs."

She paused before reaching out to take the box, opening it carefully. Her green eyes widened. "Bastet...." Griddlebone looked at him, stunned for a moment. "I...I don't know if I can accept this."

Mac shrugged, not letting on how deeply uncomfortable he was at that moment. The hell had he been thinking? Even he knew this was far too forward. "It's a trinket and I don't have much use for it. Keep it anyway."

He nodded, putting out the cigarette. "Oh good. I wasn't sure, but..." It seemed like something she would have liked.

She set the jewelry box down with the invitation, coming around the table to where he was. "I mean it. Thank you." The white queen hesitated for a brief moment before leaning down and kissing the flame-colored tabby.
