You immediately enlist $assistantName to help you make some hasty preparations, and then send him a message asking him if he'd like to spend a night out with you, as a couple of unremarkable citizens. He glances at you with a curious expression, and you direct him to a side room. He finds you there, changing into the heavy, anonymizing armor of one of your mercenaries; you have a male suit for him, too. Once you're both suited up, you move to show him how to activate the face-obscuring helmet, but you find that he's already got it on and active. "This," he says, "is either the best or the stupidest date idea I have ever heard. Let's fucking do this." You pass a mercenary on your way out onto the club, and he cannot resist giving you a thumbs up, which your fellow arcology owner fortunately fails to notice. You patrol for a while, using internal comms to joke about life as an arcology owner, something he clearly gets to do too infrequently. You don't mind the chance, either. Your mercenaries frequently spend time together off duty, so nobody sees anything unusual about a male and female in mercenary armor sharing a milkshake at a dairy bar, even when they start to engage in increasingly rough public flirting, armor and all.
