[John's voice is calm, not showing any of the great deal of surprise that he is feeling at Sarah's "suggestion".]

I thought we were keeping our heads low and staying out of sight.

[oh, John, you've learned so well. Sarah's voice is a little softer when she responds.]

It's not worth it if we hide away our whole lives, John.

Now there's something I never expected to hear from you.

[ :( is she that bad, John?]

It'll be all right.

We'll have allies there. One afternoon out won't kill us.

[besides, she's just been through hell. She really needs a break right now.]

[Just a little.]

If you're sure you're up to it, then fine.

I'll bring along some arms just in case.

I'm fine.

[She frowns a bit at that. She knows exactly where he's coming from; Sarah doesn't like going out unarmed, either, but this situation's a little different.]

Might not be the best idea.

[The calm in John's voice is dropped and replaced with shock. Is he seriously hearing this from his mother of all people?]

Why not? It's an unsecured location and we've just had all sorts of bad news crawling around this station that we're only mostly sure we've cleaned out.

I haven't forgotten all that.

[Sarah's voice grows a little sharper. Why is everyone questioning her today.]

This is different. Red - she doesn't like guns.

I don't want you bringing one near her.

I think I'm going to need a bit more of a reason than she doesn't like them.

It's her party, John.

Nothing's gonna happen there. Okay?

[why yes, she is avoiding a real answer here.]

This is important to you isn't?

AUDIO ▒ CYBERNETIC ENCRYPT. 1oo% ▒ hows_the_knee March 29 2011, 00:05:34 UTC

...yes.

Knives are fine. We'll keep our eyes open.

[and if any real threat did turn up, anything they could bring along to a picnic wouldn't be much help, in any case.]

Please, John, trust me on this.

[He's quiet for a long moment.]

Fine, I'll leave the firearms at the safehouse.

[He sure as hell was bringing his knife though.

Thanks, John.

...I wouldn't ask you to come at all, if I didn't think it was important.

[He feels ashamed now for having made that much of a fuss about the issue. Here he gets time with his mother, time he wouldn't have otherwise and he's spending it arguing over something that really doesn't matter. He can let his guard down for this one party, for her.]

...I know.

AUDIO ▒ CYBERNETIC ENCRYPT. 1oo% ▒ hows_the_knee March 29 2011, 04:28:09 UTC

...good.

[There's a long pause. She loves you, John, and she wants you to relax and have a good time occasionally, too. The fact that you were so surprised at her even suggesting this only makes her feel more guilty.

She doesn't say any of this, of course.]

It'll be fine.
