Room 406, Friday morning through afternoon

[izzyalienqueen]

It had been a long, wet walk back up from the causeway and Isabel was grateful to get out of the rain by the time the reached the dorms. Her key was gone, left somewhere back on Antar, so she used her powers to open the door. Stepping inside the room, Isabel looked around and blinked a lot, not quite able to believe she was really back.

For Jack & Parker

[izzyalienqueen]

Isabel took a seat on the edge of bed. "So what did I miss?"

Jack sat beside Isabel, hip pressed against hers, still holding her hand.

If he was hanging onto her, she couldn't leave.

"I was a girl yesterday," he offered with a smile.

"Tell me there's pictures," she laughed, squeezing his hand. "I bet your were gorgeous."

Re: For Jack & Parker

[anextimeagent]

"Nope, no pictures, but I was gorgeous," he said, so happy to hear her laugh. "You can ask Parker. She said I looked like a model."

"Not that you don't now," Parker said, "but yes. He did. He was very very pretty. Even if he didn't know how to comb his own hair." She grinned at Isabel, thrilled to have her back already. "And Bel's alive, did you hear that before you left?"

It took a moment of filtering through the events of that last day in Fandom before Isabel remembered what Anders had told her. "I did. Good. How's he doing?"

Re: For Jack & Parker

[mparkerceo]

Parker's lips quirked. "I haven't seen him yet, but by all reports, very well. Thriving." She smirked a little. "Celebrating with Phoebe."

[izzyalienqueen]

"I can only imagine. Although probably not. Way too much TMI there," she snickered. "How about you? How's Weiss? What have you been up to?"

Re: For Jack & Parker

[mparkerceo]

"Weiss is good, we had a picnic the day you left, before you told me what was happening." Parker shrugged. "And, well, not much else. It's only been a few days." She grinned, suddenly. "You don't have to go back, do you? You're here to stay?"

[back in 1 hour!]

Re: For Jack & Parker

[izzyalienqueen]

Isabel looked down quickly, "Yeah, it just seemed longer I guess. As for going back, no. Not at the moment."

Re: For Jack & Parker

[anextimeagent]

There was something off in the way she'd said that, avoiding looking at them, but he ignored it in favour of something more important. "No," he said, tugging gently on her hand. "You're ours, you have to stay."

Re: For Jack & Parker

[izzyalienqueen]

"I want to stay," she murmured, leaning against him. "I missed you guys. A lot."

Re: For Jack & Parker

[anextimeagent]

"Missed you, too," he said and slipped his arm around her waist. There were so many things he wanted to tell her, but they could wait.

Re: For Jack & Parker

[mparkerceo]

Parker had picked up on Isabel's tension too, and remembered the look Captain Jack had given her when he'd said, take care of her. But she was willing to play along for now. "And I'm glad we won't have to for any longer." She patted Isabel's arm, then took a step back, asking, "So. Want to stay in today, or go out and party?"

Re: For Jack & Parker

[izzyalienqueen]

"If you don't mind, I'd just as soon pass on the party today." Isabel shrugged a shoulder, "I'm tired. Give me a day or two to catch up on my sleep and then we can talk.""

Re: For Jack & Parker

"We could leave you alone, if you want. You do look pretty travel-lagged," Parker said, keeping her voice light.
