The boss types deserve all the praise. The push the papers and crunch those numbers and count some beans or something. They just let me fly stuff.</strong>” he jokes.<br/><br/>Hal wondered what Kendra’s reactions would be to meet an alien or seeing a new planet. As a Green Lantern he didn’t suffer from fears or anxieties—and with his ring he could all but move planets. He was all but sure he could keep her safe barring an all-out alien invasion.<br/><br/>There were more than two dozen planets he visited but it wasn’t exactly like he could take pictures and show them off. She seemed smart, strong and confident. Maybe if things went well, because he really did want them to go well with Kendra, he could take her to someplace else for one of their dates.<br/><br/>“<strong>I’ve never been to Egypt.</strong>” he notes. “<strong>So, what exactly did you study? Was it like history and a side course in mummy’s, curses and the Book of the Dead?</strong>” he cracks a smile. “<strong>Or was it more about ancient architecture, history and anthropology?</strong>” he may have been a joker, but Hal had a very decent education thanks to the Air force and he liked to read.<br/><br/>“<strong>How do superheroes feel when they fly?</strong>..” he ‘wonders’. “<strong>I’m guessing the majority of their time they are only flying when they are chasing down a super villain. I’m not sure they take the time out to appreciate something like the sky—maybe their extraordinary gifts.</strong>” he figures. “<strong>I’m sure they have normal lives to lead with bosses, car payments, mortgages and groceries—and now I’m picturing Batman stopping into a supermarket and buying some protein shakes and prune juice.</strong>” he says with a chuckle.<br/><br/>“<strong>I don’t know about Gods. Thinking of yourself like that may lead to some really questionable moral dilemmas. They have a calling or maybe even a destiny, that they answer, a code they live by—it must suck if they buy tickets to the movies and something happens.</strong>” Hal mentally scolds himself for putting that out there. He was on a date—a fun date with a beautiful woman. Let sleeping dragons lie.<br/><br/>He snorts when she pokes fun of the whole stereotypical Top Gun version of pilots and the groupies that seem to be attracted to them. “<strong>There is a certain appeal about a man in uniform—so I hear. Especially if they are in shape and well endowed…</strong>” he leaves that hanging for a bit. “…<strong>with courage.</strong>” he adds in watching her face as he flirts with her.<br/><br/><strong>“You’re Lara Crofting days are over…damn, I think you’d look good in tights, showing midriff and wielding weapons.</strong>” he says and takes a gulp of his drink and looks around. He knew the menu here but wanted Kendra to take a look as well. “<strong>Yeah, I know about the whole second home thing.</strong>” he admits. He’d spent a lot of time on Oa training and learning from Kilowog and the other Lanterns.<br/><br/>Hal almost stopped drinking when she asked him what he looked for in a lady friend. He kept going glad he had nerves of steel. “<strong>A lady friend you say…well, firstly I’m going to be honest. You check a lot of the boxes on my internal list.</strong>” he leaned in and whispered, so she knew she was doing very well.<br/><br/>He snorts. “<strong>I’m kidding I don’t have a list. I …sort of have a bunch of notions about what I should feel like when we are together.</strong>” he admits.<br/><br/>“<strong>I like sassy, strong, athletic, brave…but can still be soft and fun when they let their guard down. A sort of ‘never give up’ and ‘higher, further…faster’ …ok, it seems my time in the air force has affected me more than I thought.</strong>” He sips his drink staring right at Kendra. “<strong>Independent but wouldn’t mind me holding the door for them or other attempts at being a gentleman that I can muster. An explorer…oh…and she’d have to be good with my dog.</strong>” he sums up what he looks for. Everyone wanted to be with someone beautiful so he just sort of figured that was a given.<br/><br/>“<strong>I guess its your turn. What do you look for in a lady friend?</strong>” he says almost seriously. “<strong>Ok I meant a guy.</strong>”
