Room 406, evening

[izzyalienqueen]

Aside from being social and cooking on Friday morning, answering a letter and talking to Jaina today, Isabel had had a mostly quiet weekend as she worked on finishing up her college applications. They were finally done and stacked neatly in a pile on her desk, ready to be mailed in the morning.

To celebrate, Isabel flipped on the TV and got ready to watch the premiere of The Amazing Race. She'd missed Phil Keoghan.

The door was open.

"Mine was me and Mac," Peter said. "Go figure."

"It's improbable, but not exactly illogical," she shrugged. "I mean when you think of some of the kids that showed up in the spring. Some were the result of magical brownies, or a bad mix of magic and future tech? You having a kid with Mac is pretty low-key on the weirdness scale."

"Plus I could do worse," Peter admitted. "Not that I think about Mac that way, but if I was just picking a partner to share kid-raising duty with."

"Exactly," Isabel agreed. "Although I have to admit? The whole vegan thing makes me shudder."

"Soy milk's not so bad," Peter said.

She shook her head sadly. "I've tried what she calls chocolate. I'm sorry but that's a crime against nature."

"Admittedly I haven't tried that one," Peter said. "Have done the vegan cheese though."

"Fake mozzarella?" Isabel asked. "With olive oil?"

"I'm not saying I'd call it pizza, but you melt anything said it becomes edible," Peter said.

"True enough. I mean, I used to like Sbarro," she laughed.

"It's like I don't know you at all."

"But I've repented! Honestly! I'll never eat there again!" Isabel promised.

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"Promise?"

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Cross my heart," she said solemnly.

"We'll see if I trust you," Peter said, good-naturedly. He settled down to watch the show.

"Just wait and see. The next time we're at the mall, I'll pass on Sbarro and go for a fake Philly Cheese steak instead," Isabel chuckled. She grabbed a pillow and got comfortable as the show began.

"Phil!!!!"
