You were at Penny's house, wearing a black lace nightgown, when you heard three firm knocks on the door. Penny sighed, recognizing the pattern. “It's the boys,” she murmured with a small smile.

She opened the door and there were Leonard and Sheldon, with Howard and Raj right behind. Leonard's gaze faltered when he noticed you, while Sheldon looked uncomfortable, looking away almost immediately. Howard, on the other hand, saw an opportunity. He adopted his most confident stance, raising his eyebrows and flashing a smug smile.

“Good morning, beautiful lady,” Howard began, approaching with an exaggeratedly seductive look. “Did you know I have a degree in aerospace engineering? I mean, I could easily create a quest... for your heart.”

Penny rolled her eyes, but you couldn't hold back an amused laugh as Howard continued his monologue. “So, what do you think? We can talk about the stars… or make our own constellation together.” He blinked, convinced his words were working.
