"It's a good thing we're surrounded by all this snow because you are on fire." If they had made progress already, then that boded well for Christmas, Ray hoped. He was a patient guy when he wanted to be but there was a part of him that just wanted to go for it, all guns blazing again, even if he did risk getting punched and/or rejected. He wasn't really sure how much longer he could keep it in.

Maybe it wasn't such a good idea that they went back to the Catscratch club...

That didn't stop Ray from insinuating the exact opposite though. "Make sure to carry breath freshener with you. I'm not a fan of ginger."
