Anthony groaned mentally, I can't believe I forgot that I hadn't added her to the keyring yet. I'll have to do that someday. He nods in response to Sue, "Sure, but remember that they haven't met you, and they're bigger than they would have been in the simulation." He leads her into the backyard and gives her a physical key to the cage, then walks back into the house.
Sue took the key from Anthony and unlocked the cage. The tigers were apprehensive and sensitive at first, curling back and bearing their teeth. But Sue was not afraid of such adorableness. She sauntered inside and knelt down. She tried to rub all their heads at once and hugged the white one that was always the prettiest. She was lying in between them by the next second, they purring into her ears, growling but no attacking. She felt tickled, but nothing came as she laughed.
Anthony had glanced at Sue to see her answer and chuckles softly at the glare, "I apologize, Sue. I should have known." He pulls into the driveway of his house, and after opening Sue's door, leads her into the house. He shows her the living room and signs, "I know you've been here before, in a way, but feel free to explore. I just need to gather a few things, and then the night will begin. One question though, are you opposed to wine?"
Though she had already been to his house, technically, from the simulation a few months back, she was still taken aback by the beauty of the interior design. It was immaculate and gorgeous. She ignored Anthony’s words and passively walked around. She noted the spot on the wall where she drew a penis in the simulation, sad to see that it was not there.
She tried to enter the rooms but most of them were locked. She was left to walk around in the large hallways and open areas. She didn’t want to be too bothersome so she did not touch much. She did want to know if the tigers were still there.

I'm kind of disappointed that no one noticed that Anthony learned to use sign language fluently just so he could communicate with Sue better...
Anthony laughs and begins to speak out loud as he uses both hands to drive, "Alright then, you can just keep me company while I cook it. The car is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray." He grins and says, "It's only quiet because I've been accelerating and decelerating smoothly. If I were to allow it to show its true power, the engine's roar would be anything but silent." After driving for about thirty minutes, the noise from the city fades away as Anthony's property comes into view. He asks, "Are you familiar with any tangos?"
”Coooool… Thank goodness we’re not facing a lot of traffic. Must be bothersome to see what I have to say.”
Upon the question of whether Sue was familiar with any tangoes, she simply glared at Anthony. “One of my favourites.”
Anthony nods with a smile, "About as quiet as you can get in New York." He enters the driver's seat and pulls away from the Academy. As he drives even farther away from the city than the Academy, he laughs and says, "Trust me, there'll be more than enough food. I've planned a three course Argentinian meal. I'll be the one making it, so would you perhaps be willing to help me?"
”Oh, really? I didn’t know that existed in New York.” She thought hard for the sign for juxtaposition, but it escaped her. ”I can help you… eat the food?” she smiled, shyly, pointing and touching her index fingers with each other. ”I have about as much cooking talent as the next college guy living on ramen.”
”By the way, nice car. What is it? It’s so quiet…”
Anthony joins Sue in the elevator and replies, "I was thinking we could go dancing, then have dinner under the stars. Is there anything in particular that you either won't or can't eat?" Once the elevator reaches the bottom floor, Anthony leads Sue to his car, and opens the passenger door for her.
”The only thing I won’t eat is a little; I don’t know if you haven’t noticed but I eat like a monster.” she bore her teeth, showing an almost animalistic aggression. ”Are we dancing somewhere… quiet, though?”
Anthony's eyes widen as his ears first adjust to the blaring music, then the near silence. "'O Sole Mio?' he asks, "I prefer La Donna Mobile, but to each their own." He smiles, and then signs, "Shall we be off?"
Sue smacked his arm and jokingly pushed him out the whole way and made it to the elevator.
She signed to him in the lift: ”Where are we going?” She bit her lip unconsciously. She realized this, but didn’t mind. She was genuinely excited to see her tall man.
