The Park, Monday Evening

[nomoreveruca]

The portal opened only briefly, just enough time for Cally to step through before it shut behind her. She clutched her child Nicky to her chest, breathing in the fresh air. Not even the air on New Caprica was this crisp

Paige was out for a walk since it was a nice evening and she was craving ice cream.

She noticed the young woman and her baby on the bench and offered a tentative smile. It made her miss Piper and the boys. She'd have to visit soon.

"Paige?" Cally said, a tinge of hope in her voice. She'd already met two different Paiges in her earlier time at Fandom. There was a possibility it was one of them, right?

"Is that you?"

[angelandwitch]

That caught Paige off guard and she stopped, studying the other woman with surprise.

"Yeah, I'm sorry, have we met?" she asked.

[nomoreveruca]

The surprise keyed her in. It had been over two years, but the little peculiarities of Fandom were suddenly readily accessible in her mind.

"Probably not you and me," Cally said, giving her a little apologetic smile. Nicky himself did a little chubby-armed reach towards Paige. "But I've met a Paige Halliwell before. Two, actually."

Tim was out for a walk, not really on his way to anywhere, or thinking of anything in particular.

When he neared Cally, he did a minor double take. He'd seen this girl before. He thought.

"Hi."

[nomoreveruca]

Cally had never really been close to Tim, so she only had a vague sense of familiarity when he greeted her. She gave him a friendly half smile and nodded. "Nice evening," she said, not sure what else to say.

[grand_fallguy]

"It is." he nodded. "Sorry if this seems like a line, but have we met before?" He seemed genuinely unsure. Which was probably not how most guys who say that sound.
