"My brother's in the hospital. Hockey-related injury. Mom asked me to come out, but he'll never admit that he asked her to ask me," Weiss said. "Mostly it's an opportunity to see the family, since I stayed here for Thanksgiving."
"Ah. I hope he's going to be okay?" Parker asked, sitting down carefully on the computer chair, and crossing her ankles. She probably should have changed out of the skirt. "And when are you going to be back?"
Nice legs, Weiss thought and would have been surprised that made it past his filter if he knew he had a filter to begin with. "Uh, yeah. Mom says he should be fine. I'm heading out... I guess tomorrow? Mom still hasn't finalized the plane info yet."
Parker grinned at the noticing, then tilted her head. "Well, have fun. As much as you can under the circumstances, anyway. You're going to miss Teal Dear again, but I don't think anything else is happening this weekend."
"You should be. They're playing in West Virginia, next. You won't get to see them 'til next semester." She shrugged. "Anyway. Been up to anything else? Spies caught? Damsels... damseled? I haven't seen you since before Thanksgiving."
"Always good if you're stuck in Berlin." She grinned, then gave up, kicked the heels off, and curled her legs under her. "I should be studying Greek, actually. I might get to go there for Christmas, if my father's work goes too long."
"Singing orchids-- in a totally magic, non-weird way. Stuff at home." Which she wasn't going to get into if she could help it. Not yet. "And a date with Seely, which I just got back from."
"Ah, and thus the post-date breakdown." Weiss put a hand over his ear. "We're here with dating all-star Parker. Parker, how do you feel about the date you just went on?"
Her grin widened. "Well, Weiss, I have to say, as dates go, it wasn't bad. No disasters. Wasn't stood up. No one had to be arrested. So, the basics were in place. You know how I hate being arrested."
"We all remember the disasterous Teal Dear jailing scandal of Oh-Six. So, basics in place, do you feel the ball was run right to the goal? And by goal, we are not using a euphemism for sex, because we wish to keep our testicles, thank you."
"Anybody home and conscious?"
