Para stared. "There's a quota? Oh dear... I'm sorry if I messed up." She sighed. "Really, I don't mean to be difficult! Yet I know there are a lot of people out there who have trouble understanding me..." The ends of her rabbit ears suddenly drooped to match her expression.
"It's nothing to get depressed over," Maud assured her quickly. "Enough talk about labels anyway - let me get you something to drink while you're waiting for your friend."
"Oh yes!" Para said, ears perking back up. She hopped up onto a bar stool, almost overbalancing herself. "Nothing too fancy - maybe just a wine?"

The bunny girl blinked. She began to toy uncertainly with a strand of her hair. "Oh, well, because I think wine would maximize enjoyment? Is that okay?"
He winced at her more serious tone. "I was going for the English pun there, actually. On wine."
"Ooh," Para realized. She shook her head. "Stick to math. No reason to be a cocktail tease."
