Oh, Q. You are a clever dog, you. Using your powers to heal Lili up and then turn her much younger … well, that’s a pro move. I’m pretty sure every guy in existence was like “Damn, I wish I had those powers!” because it would make things so much easier … at least it seems to.
But Lili rightly points out that for some, not all women mind you, a few cosmetic changes and some bribery won’t get them to get in bed with you. Q wants a lesson in the beginning stages of romance and Lili, who seems to be warming up to him, is nice enough to give him that lesson. The musical choice is inspired and adds a lot to the scene. The way your portray the two dancing about, cheek to cheek, with Q as stiff as a junior high math geek (I may have just insulted myself) in his movements was quite entertaining and made me grin.
Ultimately, the lesson imparted here is that, yes, some physical contact can lead to making love but doesn’t necessarily mean that the two parties are in love. Q seems to be having difficulty grasping this but I think Lili is beginning to crack through that denseness Q has. Here’s hoping he takes some lessons from her as she’s quite adept at giving them.

Oh, thank you!
Junior high math geek - I hadn't thought of that, and now I can't stop.
I wrote this story a few years ago and - if I may egotistically point it out - my fave line is - "Smile, this isn't a root canal." ;)
