Samata was hardly a blushing virgin. She'd had her share of fun at the university. In response to "That's kind of bold" was to lean forwards and kiss him full on the lips with a small "Mmm" sound, while running her fingers through her hair (with her right hand only. She'd found that her metal hand tended to get hair stuck in the joints.)

She figured no one would be too badly scandalized if they got caught, and that they were probably not the only couple out here in the woods, doing more or less exactly what they were doing now. Hell, it was late. Some of them might be further along than this by now.
