Vermont chuckled, "Haha, trying out your science-student romance in front of us liberal arts folks? Good thing you didn't use this to confess your love, or else you'd be stuck with me for life!"

I prefer the tycoon-style romance." Keegan paused for a moment, still not reacting.

Vermont jumped in, "Instead of small talk, why not just give a grand gift? Stella and I have similar tastes.
