Rebecca nods, more reluctant to speak about some of the other issues involved. She couldn't be sure on the details, but having grown up with the story all her life, what else was she supposed to believe. "My parents separated when I was young. I don't remember much of my mom beyond their fighting. A couple of years before I got my power, she ran off with someone else." She shrugs in a half-hearted attempt to brush it off. "Turns out they were a meta."

I see." He took another sip of his drink just so he didn't blurt out what he was thinking. Back to Top   Eric Rebecca Jefferson Legend Defense Will it be you this time?

So she waits. Expectantly.

He thinks it's best to not open that can of worms uninvited. "Well, if you wanted to not spend Christmas cooped up here I can see what I can do." He'd shrug. "If you wanted."

Smart choice on Eric's part; she relaxes a little as the subject is changed once again. "Not that you have to. You've got your own family and stuff, too."

She shakes her head. "No. I can deal with being alone this Christmas." A dim smile. "But I won't say no to the company, either." As long as it's not half the state going to the same celebration.

And she does need the kick in the pants. "I want to not be alone this holiday." There it's out, completely with a huff and shake of her head at herself for being so...wishy washy. "I want to see what you can come up with," she adds with a bit more enthusiasm. A challenge? Maybe.

"Oh don't don't get your hopes up babe. My family isn't THAT exciting. But I'll see if they are down for me bringing home a stray puppy this year." He said playfully with a wink.

For Eric, at least, it's nto a derogatory term. He's just trying to lighten the mood. It still sort of stings. "Well, like you said, better than being alone and staring down the walls or something."

Rebecca half jumps off of the sofa as the hot cocoa dumps down the front of him. Go figure that this is the one time that he isn't on top of things and playing with portals! "Shit, I'm sorry." She darts towards the bathroom to get some towels and washclothes, running the latter under cool water to help with any burns and stains. 'Wonderful. What else am I gonna screw up? Shit.'
