Caitlin's eyebrows lift a little and she nods solemnly. "Will do. It's kind of a long story, so..." her voice trails off. It isn't actually that long of a story except that it doesn't make sense as a stand alone; she'll have to explain about Killer Frost and Reverb and Earth 2 and all of that, as well.
"Well I don't know if Big Belly Burger is my favorite..." she objects gently and thoughtfully, considering. It's definitely up there, she'll give it that. "How about if we settle for 'it depends on my mood' but it's one of the two," she suggests. Truthfully, she supposes she's never really put that much thought into it. These days, eating is just a thing she does to sustain life. It's hard to enjoy the simple things when you feel like you're drowning in the complicated ones. But with that in mind, Caitlin tells herself she needs to make sure that she's not doing that tonight. She'll make for pretty awful company if she loses herself in the depths of her own mind, after all, and he's being nice enough to escort her to these couple-y things even though most of them don't seem very couple-y just looking at them on a flier.
She grins a little to herself as they walk arm in arm and Ray goes on explaining his take on their fictional backstory. He's gesturing with his hands and being animated again and okay...that's adorable. "Awww. Thanks, Ray," she coos playfully when he makes mention that there is, of course, a toothbrush for her at his place. "You have a toothbrush at my place, too. And, you don't know it yet because I'm worried it'll scare you away, but I've also cleared a drawer in my dresser for you. But I'll mention it eventually. I'm working up to it," she elaborates with a smirk.
Making up a fake dating history with this man should not be as amusing as it is. Honestly, a part of her kind of doesn't care what they do tonight, because this playful exchange is enough fun to distract her without anything else.
"Oh, okay you want me to keep Big Belly Burger but you get to be classy with Sushi," she teases. "That's fair," she adds with a playful sarcasm as they start to approach the venue. Caitlin notices a couple giving one another a kiss at the door just before the doorman lets them in and her amusement drops. That's a coincidence, right? Because they're a real couple and they just happened to show one another affection before the doorman could actually get the door open, right?
Looking back up at Ray and convincing herself of that because...making up stories is fun but actual physical affection could make this awkward and messy, potentially, and she decides to push forward the conversation, ignoring what she's just seen because it probably doesn't matter, right? "What's our favorite date night? Go out or stay in, for a start?"
