Infinity laughed, her tongue darting out to lavish that lip. "Actually, I'll just take the planets around them."

"Looking to colonize?" Ling asked her.

The red-eyed woman stretched in the bed and sighed, "Someday, we won't have a choice. We'll have to go to the stars or we'll be ejected into them. It's just a matter of time before the baselines decide they've had enough of us and we're only getting in their way. So we'll need a home. 'Earth is not the One Race's home, but it's womb. And to live, all children must leave the womb.' So yeah... I'm looking to colonize." She smiled at him, lazily giving him that 'pillow talk' smile. "What about you - have you ever thought about going out there?"

"I've been, it's quite lonely out there, least as far as I've gone." He offered her a lazy smile, allowing himself a moment of rest, "I suppose that's what is in store, to stay, but with others going, perhaps I won't be alone in my trek." He stretched, "just a matter of how far we go I suppose."

"All the way to another planet," Infinity said, her voice dreamy. She had been wondering more and more lately what the place would be like, when Mal led them to the new world. Would it be at all familiar and earth-like? Or utterly alien? "Anyway, why would you go alone?" she asked with a grin that was suddenly sharp and sly. "Then who would you have sex with on the way?"

Infinity sat up suddenly, peering down at him. "What did you say?"

"Um... perhaps we could make our own?"

"Oh Mal... That's fucking brilliant!" Infinity turned and slid out of the bed, diving for her eufiber. All her tiredness was gone as she started to pull her clothes back on. After she was dressed, she crawled back into the bed and over to the watching dragon. Grinning, she gave him a fervent kiss, then said, "Sorry to fuck and run, but I need to get home. Can I get that ride to New York?"

Ling's eufiber spread out over his body, his trademark suit, "glad I could give you such an idea, seems you do have the power of sudden recovery." He smirked slyly and cupped her chin in one hand peering into her perfect eyes, "and of course I will escort you home, this was sudden, but I would like to see you again, perhaps over dinner?"

He slid off the bed and trailed his index finger across her jawline before snapping open a portal, "it will take a few jumps, I guess we should get started."

Infinity grinned and bounced up on her toes to throw her arms around his neck. She gave him a light kiss and said, "Definitely like to see you again. Don't know if I want to waste time eating when we could be fucking, but we could also combine the two right?" She released him and added, "Normally, I stick around and cuddle a lot more, but I have to get home. You gave me an idea and I have got to talk it over with Mal!" The casual way she said his name implied a certain closeness to the man.

"We could do that, perhaps you could come see my movie in a private viewing, in any case, we should get you there, wouldn't want you to be delayed in your business." He smiled and offered his arm, "as always you should hold on so you don't fall."

Infinity smiled and nodded slipping her arm through his as they stepped into the portal and materialized at the next stop before repeating multiple times before they reached Grand Central Station, "we are here, and I will need some rest, I don't always use that to get around, so it still is tiring." His quantum reserves were low, not empty or critical, but he had expended a lot in their travels.

“Let me get you set up in a room in Puck’s building, where you can rest. Then I gotta go.” Infinity grinned at him. “Thank you again for the wonderful idea. I just need to run and talk to others about feasibility. It sure as hell wasn’t going to come from her; she didn’t have that kind of power. For once, she was too excited to reflect bitterly on that fact.

It took Infinity about thirty minutes to get Ling settled into a room; with another farewell kiss, she let him be. As she headed for her room, she got out her phone and started to try to find a ride to the Nursery. She had a Man to talk to about a planet.
