Chocolate chip, sugar cookies, snickerdoodles, peanut butter cookies... She had five bags full of fresh baked, homemade cookies, all of different kinds. She had decided to wear one of her favorite Easter themed outfits.  Evie had already given a few people cookies and brought smiles to their faces, despite the war and impending doom that seemed to hover above everybody these days. When she saw Rebecca, she saw her from behind and her grin only managed to widen. The Goth girl always seemed like she might need a reason to smile. Even though the two didn't have the best relationship, little Evie still considered her somebody worth befriending. "Rebecca!" she called. "Hey! Rebecca!"

It also wasn't entitled or pretentious, nor was it agitated. No, instead it was a sugary, happy-go-lucky voice that she recognized after a moment. Eh, she'd had worse. Slowly, the agent looks over her shoulder, scanning the hall for what was undoubtedly going to be Evie. Back to Top   Evelyn Cravens Mentor Intelligence The world forgetting by the world forgot.

She bounded over, offering Rebecca one of her dazzling, genuine smiles. "Hey, Rebecca," she murmured, both hands full with her bags. "I baked some cookies. Thought it would help cheer everybody up! Would you like one?" Back to Top   Rebecca Jefferson Legend Defense Will it be you this time? [send pm] Joined: October 2015 Gender: Posts: 4,354 We Will Not Crumble! [Rebecca, Open] « Mar 20, 2016 20:37:34 GMT -6 » Quote Select Post Deselect Post Link to Post Member Give Gift Back to Top Rebecca suppresses a groan, glad at leas that the other agent remembered to be quieter and less in-your-face with all the sunshine and rainbows. "Hey, Evie." It took a split second to remember she preferred to be called by the nickname than her full one, but Rebecca manages. The redhead is certainly dressed for spring, for sure, but the smile's bright enough to cause a headache if it could reflect light. Cookies. Food she could have now. For a second, her stomach clenches, begging her to indulge, but Rebecca pushes it aside with a small smile and shake of her head. "No thanks. I'm sure there are others who could use them more." Like Eric. She still didn't trust his cooking any. "Sounds like you've been making the rounds, then." Back to Top   Evelyn Cravens Mentor Intelligence The world forgetting by the world forgot.

Her smile faltered ever so slightly as Rebecca refused her cookies, and a sad look touched her gaze. She was hoping to make her smile, really smile, with her offer, but she didn't seem to be able to. Still, she tried to keep her smile on her face. "I've run into a few people but I haven't gotten to stop too many. Most people seem to want to be by themselves these days..."

Rebecca sighs and nods, hands in her jean pockets as she continues to walk and assumes Evie will keep up. She doens't want to just stand around in the halls. "Still, it's nice to have time to yourself. Some people are better off that way." Back to Top   Evelyn Cravens Mentor Intelligence The world forgetting by the world forgot.

"Maybe so, but people still need to eat. And to smile! And Easter is coming up, so I thought I'd do something nice for people."

She keeps walking, however. "...I'll take some for later." She gives a small nod. Apparently that's not what it takes to get her to smile.

She has no idea if they're her favorite or not. "I'll keep that in mind." Somehow, she thinks Evie is the sort to like any cookie because it's a cookie.

Evie was smiling brightly once more, but she managed not to raise her voice in hopes of not bothering the little Goth girl. "How are you doing, Rebecca? With everything?"

She falls silent, still walking with a thoughtful expression on her face before glancing over at Evie with a thoughtful frown. "Well, if you feel that way," dear god she's about to actually do this, "there's a new kid around here. Tinier than us, blonde, maye a little younger? British accent. I think she could use a friend.

Then again, if you're willing to make a crater in the ground at one question, she probably shouldn't worry about it. "Her power's kind of like mine. Food would be an innocent mistake at best, but more likely an insult." Another look at the redhead, a little sharper this time despite the even and calm tone. "And don't mention me talking to you about this. At all." Back to Top   Evelyn Cravens Mentor Intelligence The world forgetting by the world forgot.
