     “I’m Jason,” said the man between songs. “Can I buy you a drink?”
     “Probably not,” said Atalanta. “Unless you want to break the law.”
     “Okay then, princess, how about a dance instead? Unless there’s a law against that, too.”
     “Sorry, captain, but I already have a boyfriend.”
     “But I don’t see him here with you now.”
     “He doesn’t like to dance.”
     “No drinking. No dancing. So, what does bring you here on a night like this?”
     “A horndog with a minivan and a fistful of free drink coupons.”
     “Well played,” said Jason. “Maybe you can buy me a drink.”
