She'd needed last night, Isabel realized. After everything that had happened, she needed a night of being quiet and feeling safe.

Eventually she'd made it back to her room. After a shower, she'd called her mom, feigning surprise at the news of the destruction of the Meta-Chem, and quickly changing the subject to the cleaning supplies that were currently working busily around the room.

"I know mom," she said eventually. "Yes, we'll be out for dinner soon. I promise. Bye." Isabel hung up her phone and opened her laptop. Solitaire would be a good way to not think for the afternoon.

[Door closed, post is open! And I'm about to go AFK till about 7 EST. I'll grab pings when I get back. And I'm back!!!]

The door should be revolving at this point Isabel sighed. "It's open."

"Can't blame them," Parker said, her voice gentle. "This sort of thing doesn't exactly come with a script, does it?" She opened a window, glanced west, and shook her head. The aftermath couldn't be much more fun than the actual events had been. "I'm so, so glad you're okay. Now." She drummed her fingers on the windowsill, then abruptly said, "When can you come visit?"

"Hey," Bridge says, stepping inside. "So. Uh. I've been somewhat out of the loop what with being stuck as a little ball of light for most of the week, but *something* big obviously happened and I just wanted to, well, I wanted to see if you were okay."

"Yeah, maybe." But Isabel was still going to talk to Chris.

"There's nothing wrong with stamping your feet and crying," she teased gently. "In the right circumstances it could get you a shiny new toy. Although personally I've always been partial to the pout with puppy eyes." Teasing and pretending everything was alright was just easier, Isabel realized.

"I stayed with him last night," Isabel explained. "I came up here because I needed to get cleaned up." And she wanted to make herself not be clingy. "I'm sure he'll turn up at some point though."

"I never been good at the puppy eyes," Meg said. "But I am pretty good at falling for them. It's like guys just know it'll work."

Isabel had her own thoughts about that. She'd already died once as Vilandra and been recreated. And now she lived on in Meris's altered body. If it happened again, would it be three strikes? But that wasn't something she was sure she could tell anyone.

"Be afraid," she teased instead. "Be very afraid."

"All right," he said, nodding. "You'll call me, won't you, if you need me for anything?"

"Seriously," Isabel replied. "Which freaks me out on several levels."

"You're still my friend," Peter said, without hesitation. "This doesn't change that."

"Not right now," she said immediately. "Not that I don't want to? But I just need a little time. Plus I don't think Wyatt's ready to let me disappear for too long right now. But maybe in a week or so?"

"Little ball of light?" she asked with a grin, avoiding any explanations for the moment. "Really? How'd that happen?"

"Oh, well, if you say so," he replied gamely. "'course, you do realize, no matter how resilient you are, I'm always gonna worry about you."

"Then beware of Peter. And Anders. They're both deadly," Isabel grinned.

"Doctor Manx wanted us to test out a new method of wormhole travel, one where we didn't need to be sent through on a shuttle- more economical, and all that. Apparently there were still a few kinks she needed to work out, though, cause when we arrived back in Fandom... poof. Sky, Z, and I were little sparkly lightballs."

"Absolutely," she promised. "Especially if I get an ice cream craving. We need another trip to Chilly Boulder."

"Zero is visiting next weekend. I'm heading into Hell Week of Finals now." Parker picked up the lighter to play with it again, lighting it, extinguishing it, lighting, extinguishing. "Any time after that week is good, I've got five weeks off, until April 14 or so. I won't really sleep right about this until I see you. Maybe you can come over with Anders? And we'll have fun and have a nervous breakdown far away from where Wyatt can worry about it?"

"It'll be mutual worrying then," Isabel grinned. "It's what brothers and sisters do."

"You know, there's no singing now."

"Anytime," he smiled. "You call me anytime and I'm there."

"I can definitely see how they'd be good at it," Meg said with a grin. "Especially, Peter. Puppy dog eyes plus the floppy hair? It'd get me every time."

He'd completely forgotten about that in the chaos of the past couple of days. "I'd . . . noticed, yeah," Anders said, confused.

"Good." It was what she needed to hear.

"It's just weird. Because I feel like me? And I look like me? But I still wonder," she sighed. "Sometimes the alien weirdness makes things too damn complicated."

"That could work," Isabel agreed. "I'll talk to Anders this week and we'll figure something out. Then I'll talk the boyfriend shaped person into bringing us over."

"Little SPD fireflies. I'm sorry I missed it," Isabel said. "You must have been cute. Did Xander freak?"

"Works." Parker smiled toward the Western Hemisphere, then sighed. "Do you need me to do anything before then? Aside from, I don't know. Tell anyone that needs to that they can vent to me?"
